I'll be camping at the Iron Horse Stables in Northern Arkansas. it's just west of Eureka springs... about where the little tent is on the attached pic.

I figure I'll be spending a day maybe two there... depending on when I leave ND...

anyone in the area wanna ride? camping at the IHS is $9 for a tent... but if need be they have lodges... (depending on the roads maybe rally next year? :idk)

Drewpy? T-Rock? you guys down... I know it's a haul for you drewpy... but come on... what else do you have to do :lol:

oh here's a link to google with the terrain... it's the Ozarks so should be nice

I am in Fayetteville! I would definitley come over, ride, and buy you a beer! Just let me know your itenerary and how to reach you...:twfix:

t-homo 08-25-2008 02:21 PM

I'll be down as long as it is on a Saturday. Oh yeah, you will probably have to stop every 15 minutes and wait another 5 for me to catch up.

I can go almost any day and although not too familiar with the roads I think we can find some twisty asphalt!:twfix:

You remember you are talking to the guy that hasn't touched a real live motorcycle in almost a year, and only clicked over 6K in the 2 yrs prior?

As many posts as miles is pretty ridiculous.

Mr Lefty 08-25-2008 05:49 PM

only when your in the same country as your bike for more than 3 rideable months out of the last 3 years.

and I should put on about 6-7k this trip... so guess what... more :pwhore:

So are you already calling 12K posts now too?

Cutty72 08-25-2008 05:53 PM

Is it bad that Vader has logged almost as many miles in the back of my pickup this year as on the odometer? :panic:

Mr Lefty 08-25-2008 05:54 PM

yes... I just won't say when... I'd imagine a lot of us regulars will hit 12k... just may take a bit longer for some than others...

Cutty72 08-25-2008 06:01 PM

I'm over a 6th of the way there!
:twfix:

Mr Lefty 08-25-2008 06:03 PM

I'd be down there too if I had my bike here... pretty much get off work and post whore... and head to bed... love the life

smileyman 08-25-2008 06:44 PM

I get only 38 mile per day loop of traffic, cops, and road hazards...Every day i have to force myself into the parking lot as my heart and throttle hand try to steer me East into the rising sun on Hwy 16...:panic:

Mr Lefty 08-25-2008 06:49 PM

yeah I'll bet! looks fuck'n bad ass

dReWpY 08-25-2008 07:48 PM

when? and the pig trail is fun, already been there and ran out of gas on it...

Mr Lefty 08-25-2008 07:50 PM

the 5th for sure... possibly the 4th too

t-homo 08-25-2008 09:34 PM

Is this the route you are taking from Springfield to Eureka Springs? A member on SWMO suggested it and I bet a few of them would make the ride down with you if you want company.

They said 76 is the best part of the ride so make sure its in there. haha.

Mr Lefty 08-25-2008 09:50 PM

That is the worst part of it...Gas stations are few and far between, better have cash cause most don't have debit/credit card ability and Premiuim is real hard to find...Made me wish for some sort of extra fuel capacity on my 636...Even considered a saddle bag/drop tank like setup...

Mr Lefty 08-26-2008 05:23 PM

good point... I'll have to set way points for all the gas stations on those routes

KSGregman 11-07-2008 05:44 PM

I was in that general area earlier this year....Cookson Mountains between Tahlequah, OK and Fayetteville...fantastic time....chewed my rear tire right off though...had to stop in Tulsa on the way home and have a new tire put on for the trip back to Wichita.

t-homo 11-07-2008 05:49 PM

Any new guys live in Northern AR, SWMO, or close?
