Sounds good here.

I need to stop looking at the damn weather websites. Now they are moving rain chances to Sunday.

Accuweather.com stills shows no rain and just a sun/cloud mix... I like their forecast better so I'll stop looking at the other one.

I'm packed and ready to go. 8 AM sharp at the outlet mall.

My bike's theoretical range is about 155 miles @ 75-80mph (44mpg - historical, 3.6 gal tank). Light comes on at 110, I get nervous around 125.

Anyone in the Friday crew made it up there yet?

[Slag]

ha! We are still in Frisco

[fastwin]

That sounds good Patrick. We'll gas up on you. Heck, I like to get off and stretch around then anyway. No good reason to push it gas mileage-wise. Again, I figure two stops from Allen to the Lodge. We'll all top up in Mena, AR and head to Russellville. [moto]

Ah, it's 8:30 and you are still in Frisco? Who's running this show? Hopefully you will be in Arkansas by tomorrow? Ya'll be careful, travel safe. See you around 1:00ish ... hopefully! Really looking forward to this. The mind and body really needs this bad. All good no bad. Get your good kharma going people!

Godspeed fellas.  [moto]

[newslacker]

I'm up, ready to get this party started.

Brian, I don't have your cell phone but you should have mine. Charles has it just in case. I'm notorious for getting lost / not finding what I'm looking for.

[Slag]

We made it! Rolled in around 2:30.

You guys have a safe ride over. See you at 1:00  [moto]

Stay on AR 27 all the way down to 88....much better roads than the route above.
