Assuming all goes as planned I'll be heading to Texarkana friday morning to pick up my FJR. Since I'll be riding it back, I'm wondering if any of you guys have route suggestions for a more "fun" route back. I have to get back to the Metroplex at a fairly decent hour so I can't go too far afield for a scenic route but I do want to avoid the superslab as much as possible.

 
My recommendation for the best roads from Texarkana to DFW?

I30 NE to AR355 N to AR332 E to Hwy4 NW to US371 W to Hwy26 NE to Hwy27 NE to

Hwy301 SE to back to Hwy26 NE to Hwy27 N to Kirby (US70) W to

Old Black Springs Rd N to Langly - Hwy369 N that loops around to Hwy240 E to Hwy 8

Hwy 8 N to Hwy27 N to Danville - Hwy10 E to Hwy7 S to Fountain Lake.

Bee line on Hwy 5 E to Benton, Take I30 into Little Rock and grab a plane home.

Anything between Texarkana and DFW will be dull compared.

 
Yeppers. Drop off the kids at school at 7:45 and then get my butt to Texarkana pronto! I've been reluctant to check the weather so I don't jinx myself. Someone please tell me it's going to be perfect weather this coming weekend-- I got a bike to break in.

Marcos,

Nat'l Weather Service has 30 percent chance of showers on Friday for FW and Texarkana. Think positive and be careful!

Be prepared and take the rain gear and have a nice, safe break-in ride, then change the oil and filter after you get home.

 
Dang... as if dealing with shiney new tires wasn't bad enough. Well, fingers crossed and calling in any outstanding karma markers for some fair weather. Might just have to superslab it after all.

Everyone's a comedian these days. :bleh:
I'm just sayin'!

Ridden it many a time and, unless you make some lon-gassed loop east or west, there ain't much to say about the shot between Texarkana and DFW.

 
Gosh....how did I miss this thread? Just trailer it like fjrchik did....lol

so true. preach on.

are you going for a goal of every category having your name on it on the homepage? that would be cool. but then you'd be volunteering to take care of the 06 farkle list! yeah right.

No, that is not my goal. Mine is to post the most without actually saying anything pertinant. I have an answer to any question you have....it just won't be right. And, if it offends you....I'll just blame it on someone else. It's comparable to living in california. lol

 
This isn't a union job, bubba. I fix planes....I don't fix humidifiers. And, you are lucky your wife is not my ex......she'd burn you down. As for twn's role in all this? Who cares....he's funny. And, he is fun to piss off....or on....depending on if you are male or female. :eek:
