Default Southern Rally 2011 - Little Switzerland in September

This is the location we are doing the Southern Rally this year. The Central guys will be doing a spring rally in Arkansas. Kyle posted a link to a place in the other thread. Let's try to find us a location to do this and start getting things planned. I for one want to do the hike on Grandfather Mountain one day. It looked freakin badass.

Since the other thread got locked before I could answer your question.

I like it alot. I actually road up 80 to the BRP this past Saturday and up to Mt. Mitchell State Park with another guy on his Triumph Speed Triple. When we left it was dark...about 8pm so we took the BRP over to 226 right by Little Switzerland and then down to 221 to get back home. A few stray dogs and a deer or two plus with it getting kind of chilly took the fun out of it so we were pretty slow on the return trip.

That is quite a jog from NW AR. However if things are going well I might try and make it. If not Eureka Springs may be my only week of vacation...
