Oct. 13 or 14 ride

[pbghost]

Finally getting a weekend off,( Oct 13-14) thinking of a ride through the Kiamichi mountains along the Winding Stair trail. (weather permitting) The leaves should be changing by then. I'd like to meet some of y'all. I usually end up missing everything due to work. Or if anyone has a better suggestion, Im open to it.

Why don't you set up a meet and greet?

They will come, trust me...

 

[twotonevert]

Come up to Eureka with us. I think we have about 8 or 9 confirmed for the weekend.

 

[pbghost]

when are you leaving for Eureka? I've only been there once and loved it. cool little town with nice folk. what all's involved in setting up a meet & greet?

 

[twotonevert]

Heres the link to the thread. come on up.

ok two questions where is the kiamichi mountains at and where is eureka at ??i am in the middle of all those states u said

 

[twotonevert]

Eureka Springs Arkansas Northwest part of the state. North of Siloam Springs, on Beaver Lake. Kiamichi's are located in South East Oklahoma. There is a road that is called the rim of the world there, supposed to be really nice. PM DREW, I believe he set this one up. We are going to Eureka Spring on the 13th and 14th, and then to the Caps house on the 19th. Puttin miles on the Busa!

We are in the Tulsa, Broken Arrow area. Heading up Saturday morning. Not sure how you want to go, but could meet with you and your wife and ride on to Eureka Springs. I cant answer your question about the 21st, pm the Captain, but we planned on leaving Sunday late morning or whenever Mrs. Captain kicks us out. I sent you a PM pb.

sounds good. since I get scatterbrained a lot, I'll get your # closer to the departure date so it'll be a fresh entry in my phone.I sure do appreciate it. will you be there too?

We are riding 2-up, wifey loves to ride!

 

[pbghost]

good deal, that will be comforting to her, she's kinda on the shy side. tonight we'll book our room. about what time do we meet up north of 40?

 

[twotonevert]

Let me check the maps and find out what time we will be leaving for sure. I will call you in a while if thats cool.

 

[twotonevert]

Scott there are two routes we could take from Checota, route A is just over 3 hours.

 

[twotonevert]

Route B is just over 4. My wife affectionatly calls me the travel Nazi............

 

[pbghost]

either one... this will be my wifes first bike road trip, so whatever will make the best impression. monday will be 13 years married, feb was 10 years of bike ownership, and she's only been on about a dozen local rides. she finally caved and agreed to go. i have a feeling this will result in an eternity of goin' to the mall when it's all said & done.

hopefully will result in more road trips.
