Meet-n-greet 2 (2006)

(GSXcite @ Sep. 08 2006,16:20) Do any of you guys know what the parking situation is at the hotel. Is there a good place to park the truck and trailer and a secure spot for the busa at night? Also are the roads paved to the hotel?
I just called and the lady said they have a good parking area, so it shouldn't be a problem.
 
Parking is right in front of room doors. if you are on upper level, that is. All roads are paved. you were kidding right?
 
Do you think they would get mad if we pulled our bikes in our room?

I hope someone will step in here and help me out.

Point West is actually east of Eureaka on Beaver Lake

Depends on how you were planning to get there. But I don't think you will want to come into Eureka from the South.

From 69 North - 412 East to 540/71 North to 62 east from Bentonville/Rogers. From here it can get a bit confusing. There are two places that you can turn off of 62 to get to the. The easiest for me is turning South at the Gas Station Convince store at 187.

You can also go 69 North – 140 East to 540/71 north to 62 East from Bentonville/Rogers.

From Oklahoma City, I’ll be going 44 East to 412 East……


Some of the mapping software will incorrectly show the Point West address near a town called Beaver. Beaver is North/NorthWest of Eureka Springs. Point West is actually on Beaver Lake. It is almost Straight West of Eureka Springs. It is South from Hwy 62 .
 
i was only able to get directions to him so far...can't get the map to copy like i want it to...if any of you have any questions just pm me your # and i'll give you a call and talk you through getting a map and/or directions...i don't know much about wrenching on these new-fangled bikes

I will be in the f250 with the big yamaha tuning fork sticker in the back window.
Will be trailering a busa, zrex, zx-10 and a r1.

may have to unload a couple bikes once we hit 62. looks like a nice road to ride in.

KS---- sign me and the Mrs... Up for something.... We are riding the Goldwing in so we dont have a lot of room but I am sure there will be a store we can go to... OR if you just need cash to cover the cost of something else let me know....

Anyone else excited about this? I have had this board for almost 7 years and this is the first get together I've been able to go to......

You bet I'm excited! Glad you and the wife could make. It gives us the chance to meet as we live so far away from each other!
