I thought I already did.  I got an email back that was sent to about 5 or so people.

Getting prepped for the journey.  Got my panniers back.  Have a MRA Vario, and have my seats sent off to Spencer for modification.  And should have an AlaskaLeather butt pad showing up any day.  Probably overkill for a short road trip, but one less thing to worry about :)

As soon as we get the details I'll know for sure.  Got to plan around work, daughter's school, soccer, and girl scouts this time of year :(

Bring the Scouts down....
Tell 'em take a hike and you'll see them Sunday morning!

In fact... Marble Cave is 200 ft away...... 100 ft straight down and 100 ft
North on Hwy 7!

You'd be surprised at how many riders have brought their kids.

Look forward to meeting you!

Not sure if you set a date yet, but the 17th would be my best chance to make it.  Kids in band competitions and a wedding the weekends before.  Oh yea, "It snows here in October" so, hopefully that won't be a problem.  Might even bring my father-in-law and his V-Strom if I can paint some stripes on it! :lol:

Some of the folks at the MI ride in were talking about returning to Japser AR this fall for a little gathering. I've checked with the Hub and the only
weekend that is open in Oct. is the weekend of Oct. 23 and 24th.

So.... if anyone is interested let me know. I'm planning on going down on the 22nd. Probably ride over to Eureka Springs area (Cycle Gadgets, Buba's BBQ) on Friday. Saturday breakfast at the Cliff House Inn at 9:00 AM. Breakfast on the rim of the Grand Canyon of the Qzarks!! We can add to the agenda as we go, maybe a Friday or Saturday night bonfire at Shady Oaks if we get enough riders.

Following are web sites for lodging, camping and Cliff House. Be sure to check out the routes on the Hub site. Thinking about doing something like the Moonshine Route on Sat with a little variation to pick up a road by Alum State Park. Plenty of other great roads in the area so feel free to pick a differnt route.

The Hub motel and resturant:  www.hubinfo.com (http://www.hubinfo.com)

Shady Oaks Capmground:  www.camptheoaks.com (http://www.camptheoaks.com)
campsites, cabin, popup trailer about 1 mile from Hub Check with Terri for
avail.

Cliff House Inn:   www.cliffhouseinnar.com (http://www.cliffhouseinnar.com)
food with a great view!

If your interested in some great riding or have any questions about the area let me know.

E-MAIL ME IF YOU PLAN ON COMING ! ! !

Sign me up!

Not sure if I'll be coming alone, or if the better half will be riding in on her Buell Blast, or if we'll be 2 up on the Tiger.

How's everyone spend their day on this trip?  I see lots of route maps on the HUB website.  Any recommended for a couple of newer riders?
