Just wanted to say thanks to all the guys that took the lead in the groups and any others who helped in making the experience a good one. I have been riding off and on in different venues for years, but this was the best adventure I have been on. What I really liked was the quantity of time spent in...

Oh crap, I am sorry Daryl! I will never get gas again, the wife can do it, she's retired anyway!

If I get my rear tire changed I may be good for a a few hours Sunday afternoon. We could meet halfway or something, but I don't know backroads that far away. Twisty blacktop is OK too! ????????????????

Matt, looked at your tire. It was deader than mine, but thanks for the offer!

I have TPs tire on and am planning to take it to it's end, which I am estimating will be next Sunday night when I get back. Thanks to everyone for the input!

Carl, I don't have any 17 inch tires, however as mentioned in the Eureka Springs thread, I am Trailering down on Thursday, mid morning from Smithville. If you decide to haul, there is room on my trailer if that helps save some miles. Or you are welcome to haul back if that helps. I am working in Da...

I have been so busy preparing for the Eureka Springs I never noticed the 2200 mile rear tire is near the tread wear indicators. Anybody have a spare they would sell me? I will be on the phone to the dealers in the morning, but for some reason I don't have high hopes. Right now I would like to replac...

[quote="MacWildcat"]If we can't get you going, we'll leave a bottle of water and one bullet. If we're not back in a month, you know what you have to do!

Could we arrange two bottles of water? I am a thirsty kind of guy. I would be out of vacation by then!

Thanks for the feedback. I have all the stuff mentioned on my bike already, except the water, even the aircompressor and tire irons. I do worry about being overdressed if it warms up. Should be interesting!

Made reservations for Wed, Thur and Fri nights. Plan to meet some friends at WhiteRock Mountain Saturday evening. Now all I have to do is decide what to pack and what to leave. Never been on a dual sport trip!!! Should I wear or pack the MX boots, pants etc or will the street boots and HT overpants ...

What's a tar heal? Or should I ask?

Don't anybody over react now. I didn't mean to, I just wanted to up my post count!

Darn!

Anybody open to an evening ride Friday night (3/15) after 5:00. Probably black top, gravel is OK too, or coffee or food, could be talked into a beer :?: or........I am flexible, the wife is on the east coast for the next 10 days starting Friday so I can have several day and evening oppurtunities nex...

It was a red '04 or '05 KLR650.

How about an 07. That would be me. Went by Rusty's on the way home from work today to window shop!

I think I am entertaining grand kids Saturday but I can get out Friday evening after 5:00 if anyone is interested. We can eat and ride or ride and eat or we don't have to eat!

Thanks for the offer but Theocratic responsibilities prevail! I hear ya. We had a full day by leaving at 2:00. So, eating a cheaper lunch, at home, would be OK with me also. Hopefully we can get all the Liberty Dual Sport Gang to come along next time. Don't get me wrong, I like to eat! A couple of ...
