Hey you guys and gals that know you are coming for sure, please give Anne a call at the www.Ridersrestmotel.com (479) 253-9815 and get your reservation in. tell her your with the Triumph riders. Remember there are only 10 rooms and I reserved the whole motel. I know a few folks will be camping. Does anyone want to be in charge of patches, since I will have the shirts covered?? The patches from the Midwest rally looked really cool. Some folks are in to patches, I'm not, but I remember Moe was somewhat disappointed we didn't have one last year. I think he has a wall in his house coverd with them.

I just talked with Anne, and she told me that she's going to check with her husband for the camping on site. They normally don't because there is no shower for campers. Room rates are $45 a night, camping would be around $10. I'll let you all know what she says when she calls back.

Now Chris please don't start any outrageous and uncircumstantiated rumors. I'm still trying to figure out how we are going to live up to the river boat dinner cruise at the Midwest Rally. Eureka Springs ain't got no river or paddle boats.

Dave, I think the campground Rudy and Moe used last year was somewhere down the road and not on site. Anne at the Riders Rest, told me last year that she doesn't do camping there anymore even though it is still on her web site. She should be able to point out a good campground though. Moe...are you listening??? What was the name of the campground you used last year?

I think they may make a special consideration for this event. She also said that there is a room in the basement under the office building that is cheaper than the rest of them for anyone who is going solo or not wanting to share a room.

Hey, I get all my rumors and ark rally info from roadworthy dave. If anything is sub par, I've got him to blame  .  .
How could it NOT be fun? All I need is a place to  , a place to  , and shower. I'm looking forward to hanging out/getting to know you and can't wait.

ThomWill came last year from Ga., Mark. According to mapquest it is 691 miles from Atlanta to Eureka Springs. 11 hr. and 47 min. Of course that is probably all interstates.

Bumping the AR rally back up top and also looking for the next member to get the Journal. I will be out of state late Aug and early Sept so need to move it along pretty quickly. Maybe if it went around East OK, SW MO, and most anywhere in AR it could still be around for the AR Rally. PM me if you are interested.

Donny and I stopped at the Biker motel, www.ridersrestmotel.com, in Eureka Springs Friday and spoke with Anne. We booked October 8th, 9th and 10th. If we get as many people as Birchr has for Dent in the UK (85-100), then we will have to use some other motels and campgrounds. I will try and get hoodies this year instead of t's, for all you cold blooded flatlanders.
I'm going to the shirt shop on Monday.
Please let me know if you are attending and your shirt size and number of shirts. Last year they were $10 for long sleeve t's it'll be a bit more for hoodies. I'll get back to you next week on the actual price. I'm ready to hit the Ozarks. 47 days.

Hey Damien. It's a BA.com thing so most have Triumph Americas or Speedmasters but we don't discriminate. Any one is invited with a bike. Heck we even have a Harley and I hear there may even be a very fast Beemer named the "Beast" making an appearence for the first time.
As far as money I think the rooms were like $59 per night for 3 nights if you don't camp, and all your meals. What guys... around $300 if you don't have a roommate? That's kind of up to you. But be warned there are only 10 rooms so talk to Anne at the Riders Rest (479) 253-9815 and get your reservation in early.
Glad to have you aboard.
