There is me and Donny that I talked in to going. We both joined this sight about the same time when we both bought '02 Cardinal Red TBA's. There may also be another guy meeting us somewhere who is from La.
Yes the official Rally runs from Thursday through Saturday with most leaving on Sunday. You are right, a lot of folks do go for the whole week and ride.
Well last time I went 2 years ago, I went from Tulsa to Lawrenceburg, TN which was 573 miles. Then from Lawrenceburg to Daholnega was 250 miles. I was dead beat when I hit Tn. This is not set in stone. It just seem to work out pretty good last time. I'm hoping we'll be leaving town by 7am.

Well how about this. Jennifer and I will be attending the 2010 rally after all! We will roll into town on the 5th and stay until Sunday morning. Sorry it will be so short, but looking forward to seeing everyone and doing some great riding.
Countdown has begun.....

Paul, what is your ETA for Little Rock? Bringing one friend on a Speedy and possibly one more on a HD. Guess I better call and get a room at the Raj-mahal.
Can't wait to see everyone.
m, don't look like i will be able to meet up in W Va. My friend on the speedy doesn't want to do 1000 mile days.

Paul stopped by today on his new Thunderbird,he and my wife talked me into coming to Georgia for the rally ....so count me in as well 
lol i just now read this! Guess I don't have to keep that cat in the bag either!
Looking forward to shooting the breeze with ya again, been a while eh? Eureka Springs Rally 08? Dang time flies...
Too bad ya won't get to see your d&ds as Cinnamon girl has em and Vera is gonna get her groove on. Let's say 2500 miles this trip? Be about 30 miles from the mason dixon line or 25 from pete's house. Finally, time draws near enough for the butterfly syndrome to emerge.

I'm guessing between 11:30-12:00noon on Tuesday the 4th. If you bring the guy on the Harley, Donny won't feel like such a social outcast.

It's been a long time...crazy start of the year. I'm very excited about making it to the rally this year. The rides scheduled sound awesome Chy! Now I have to figure out what fun thing that I'm going to make everyone do on Saturday night to top last year's photo op (because I know how much everyone loved that  ! Ryan tells me we are going to book it to get there on Wednesday so can't wait to see everyone!

Watch out for Yota, Argyle. He can be a little funny, especially after a couple of 6 packs. I roomed with him once at the first AR rally and the experience traumatized me so much, I've been in deep intensive therapy because of PTSD.
