I like it, some of the best Rally's I've been to was hanging out socializing and burning all the trees we could drag in

I did a long ride in that area yesterday. This is the route I used but modified to start and end in Jasper rather than Bentonville. Map link to follow. If you do this ride be sure to fill fuel tank at jasper before leaving. Jasper to Ozark has no consistent fuel sources. Hwy 16 is as consistently curvy as any road in this part of the Ozarks and I think 123 from Clarksville to Hwy 7 is one of the prettiest rides in this part of the state. The stop in Ozark is at the Rivertown BBQ just before 3rd street runs into the river. Didn't take time to clean up mapquest map totally but you get the idea. 215 miles and about 5.5 hours. Wish I could make it but am bound by my promise to do the sports car run (NOT A RACE!, or so they say). http://mapq.st/1cwKns2

I was thinking since we will already be in Marble, Springs below Harrison, going south on AR 7 to Dover take a left on 333 hook up with 27 N then to 16 all the way to Mountain view then back N. on 14. We can discuss it before you all get too inebriated on Thursday night.

Yes I have to agree, it does sound wimpy to trailer from

I might have to tighten my chain before I leave, and balance my carbs, but that's about it. Maybe I'll hose it off real quick too

Well, after sleeping on this I have come to a conclusion. Since I'm the closest at 140 miles it only makes since that I bring a trailer in case we need to take a bike to el dorado springs for work or something.... yes that's it...I'm not a wussy but sacrificing in order to bring a trailer , just in case... I'm not a wussy but magnanamous... magnanomous Dan ....that's my story and I'm sticking to it !

Okay Dan, if you say so. They say you can justify about anything. I used to think of you as one of the toughest in our group. Remember when you camped out in the rain at Y city? Man it is really hard when your heroes dissapoint you.
