If we leave today for NY, we could take our time going to the Noreast rally then come back and go to the AR. rally. Sounds like a good plan to me.

The web site said they had 2 or 3 of those Triple rooms. Someone else may have gotten to them already. Sorry.

No problemo really with the dates...I was just saying I'll probably miss Thursday & Friday. I hope hopin to jump from the work thing early on Friday and ride to Jasper that afternoon/evening so I can make Saturday's cruise. I printed out the route map from Tory's post, & plan to incorporate my other fav pastime "camping" into the trip. Lookin forward to meeting you all.

you can pitch a tent at The Hub for 10 bucks a night, and they have a bath house. Pretty sweet deal.

I'm going to be just the opposite - I can make El Dorado Springs, but I'll have to head home on Friday after the demo truck.
I've got a room reserved at the C&H, extra bed if anyone is looking to split a room.

The route I'm thinking about. Google wanted to take me all the way to little rock- I'm going thru two national forests instead! I changed it up a little to hit Kansas and louisiana too.

Don't know. I usually decide when I go the the t-shirt place and look at sample colors. We've had Blue. Lt. Gray, Dk gray and the first year Dan Hill got us white ones. I guess we are due for candy apple red or mustard yellow.

Probably not too early. 9 or 10ish. El Dorado Springs is about 4 hours or so from here.

I'm seriously considering safety green (kind of a lime green)with the logo in white or black. I've seen some riders with t-shirts that color, and they look kind of cool. Does anyone really hate that idea? Tell me quick I'm placing the order at 3 today. Here's the color. https://www.broderbros.com/cgi-bin/online/webshr/prod-detail.w?sr=G240¤tColor=38

It's ... ummm.... kinda bright. I think the print should be black on that color.

How about this one with white lettering. It was the color of the Ga rally t-shirt a couple of years ago and it looked good. https://www.broderbros.com/cgi-bin/online/webshr/prod-detail.w?sr=G240¤tColor=38
