Fall Arkansas Trip. Sept. 20th.

[Slag]

The grandfather is still hanging in there. Catie has told me to go. It looks like I am good for the trip.

Kevin, screw the mileage. You WILL be going on this trip. They are all highway miles on your bike anyway

So......the bike has 7000 miles eh?  I don't know, I was really looking for one around 6000........

I like the way you think... Now if someone would just pay for it 

Actually think my next service is 7500, but I digress

I probably will but I will have to come home on Sunday

[fastwin]

Damn bro', the day to be there is Sunday to hit the Northern Arkansas raceway! I've done up and backs before... OK but not the same. It will be a lonely ride back knowing that we are having fun scooting around sweet roads. [moto] Lie, tell work your sick or tell them your rich uncle in Arkansas died and that you're attending the funeral.

I'm a slight maybe for this, are you planning on riding or trailering?(kev)  I would have to be home Sunday night, but could ride Sunday day!  How many miles is it from Dallas?  If we ride all day Sunday, maybe we we could trade a spot on your hotel room floor (Saturday night) for a trailer ride back to your casa........(Sunday night)

396.2 miles from Ft Worth

New Tires. Check.
New Hub Pins. Check.

Swanny, any room shares available? I'm impervious to snoring since sharing a room with Svoloch last year.

I havent formulated much of a plan yet but the trailering idea sounds good. Maybe we can share the cost of gas and the room?

Hey Patrick.  There should be rooms available.  I have 4 of them so that is 1 for Fastwin and 3 other to share.  Now just need to find out for sure who all is going (I am in this group since I won't know until the 1st part of next week) and make sure I don't need to add more rooms.

As others have said, Sunday is the day to ride.

Let's plan on getting together for lunch one day next week so I can get route maps out to a couple of folks incase I cannot make it.

I don't mind a crowded room if it would help people out. We are only 10 days out and have NO idea who is going 

I am 100% in. My toughest decision is which backpack to carry.

A quick warning about my bike. The fuel mileage is horrendous. My fuel light comes on at 85 to 90 miles.

[Bonwilder]

Tommy says is a for sure IN for this trip....I am out.

[fastwin]

No biggie Zack. That's a nice mileage break up anyway. I like to get off and stretch every 75-100 miles and gassing up is always a good idea out in the country. Never know when the Mom and Pop gas station down the road might be closed.

Hey, if you guys seriously are going to cut the ride short and be back at work on Monday AND you are wanting to trailer it up when are you ever going to find time to ride your bikes? Just asking? [moto] Maybe I missed something.

So it sounds like Scott, Patrick, Zack, Tommy and me are good to go. Maybes are Kevin, Swanny,??? Am I leaving people out? Hard to keep a running total on a long thread. Sound off people.

I was gonna make a couple loops around the parking lot of the hotel, kevin, what were you thinking?
