If I could remember the routes we've been on I'd post some of them to these sites . Trouble is , most of the adventures we find by accident / without a clue how we found them !

Evidently there is no place to ride where you live! (Or you are keeping the good rides a secret so the roads don't get crowded).

(Or you are keeping the good rides a secret so the roads don't get crowded).

Wink

Yea Dave :

There is a little town called Sherwood over the mountain and the road getting there should be listed where other folks can find it.
Then there is 41A up to Monteagle and Hwy 41 comming down the same mountain. Thats the road that Versey is referring too.

Ain't none of them as good as that ride you took us through the Park and the loop that got us there. Cool

I can put us a couple of day-rides together that cover most of what we got .
O-Yea there is Hwy. 56 comming down off Monteagle Mountain into South Pittsburgh where the Lodge Cast-Iron is made. The road is so steep a LS-650 in 3rd gear wide open won't gain speed going up it. I'll bet its really fun in the winter . Roll Eyes

All this planning sounds interesting. I do not know if I can make more than one ride this year and that being the case the ride to Lancer's is what I want to do. Just like Gary, we are doing our family vacation in early July and I do not know yet if I will be able to take off for a ride in the second part of the year. Waiting on Lancer to set a date. This sounds like a really fun gathering.

Now let me just be clear about things. Just because the 2nd half of the year looks difficult for me, does not mean I am necessarily counting myself out. Grin

THESE EVENTS ARE IN PLANNING AND DISCUSSION -- THE CONCRETE HAS NOT SET YET ....

Lancer Oklahoma trip April - May NEED FIRM DATES Lancer, Kenny G, MM, Oldfeller, Springman, Verslagen,

After checking with other things on the personal schedule it looks like the 2nd half of May will work best, as well as provide decent weather.
If there are other suggestions in this general time frame then please include them.

Versey

I like the august date, but we'll see.

You know what the first week of August is : If we were in the area anyway we would have to stop by for a visit , maybe have to ride the Black hills a bit while we were near-by ??? If OldFeller went also we would be pulling a trailer. Roll Eyes

Doesn't May kinda rime with Oklahoma a little ? They must naturally go together some how . Grin

Moderators, if you see something is wrong or is being missed in the shuffle, reach in and fix it -- that's what you got them long fingers for.

THESE EVENTS ARE IN PLANNING AND DISCUSSION -- THE CONCRETE HAS NOT SET YET .... same month can be listed and is fine for different areas of the country. I am plugging in names as people show interest, this gives us a tool for seeing who is going were plus the folks who are going can start the refinement process on dates and activities.

So far we got the following in the rough order of doing them. Adding something is easy, talk it up some, put a date to it and we will see if folks are interested by if they sign up for it.

Arkansas Run dates please ??? Springman, old.indian

Youzguyz Twisted Sisters trip Mid to Late April "Ya'll are welcome back to my neck of the woods anytime." Youzguyz, Springman, Lancer

Lancer Oklahoma trip second half of May NEED FIRM DATES Lancer, Kenny G, MM, Oldfeller, Springman, Verslagen,

Indian Paintbrush Campground in Ty Denver June NEED FIRM DATES Verslagen, Springman, old.indian, Lamcer

Kickstand Lodge June 21-24 Dave, Oldfeller, MM, Stewmills

From here it is a short hop up to the Dragon, and to all the really neat surrounding roads we love to ride. For East Coast beginners, this is the closest (and the BEST) Southeastern trip possible. Some have argued the area is the BEST BIKING IN AMERICA and I might have to agree with them.

MM's farm July to first week in August MM, Oldfeller, Dave, Lancer

And here is a tool to use in locating some no cost camping when travelling to get to the rides:

OK, you guys are beginning to ask the wife about what's planned on the family side of things and that is good -- can't plan these bike trips in a vacuum.

Springman is kinda sorta over committed (yeah, I know, kid in the candy store) and is beginning to pull back some. When he picks his trips, he'll post and we will adjust all the listings.

Old_Rider is incommunicado so trips to his area are coming up with "no takers" at this point in time and may actually be dropped after the first of the year.

The rest of us need to look at what we can really do and plan for a reasonable amount of trips (the best ones that we think we can really do).

Count me in at 75% for the Kickstand Lodge June 21-24. I will have been there the weekend of May 12 for another group ride but should be able to sneak in another 3 day weekend.

I would like to attend the Thunder Beach Run May 3-7 since it's only a 3 hour drive from me, but since I already have plans the following weekend I am not so sure I can squeeze in another weekend away as somewhere in this whole mix I'll have a full week off in May for a family vacation.
