2nd annual southern mo meetup and ride

[fredz43]

Getting stoked! Looking at where I cross the big river I'll bee line to Poplar Bluff then search out the letter roads north to Farmington. I just read some of eemsrenos Missouri back roads thread. He says any letter road is a good one. I reckon he would know. Can't wait to ride new roads! See ya soon. Mark

I would agree that any letter road is good and the ones with double letters (DD) are great.

You souldn't presume That I know anything.

Steve we have picture evidence ::26::

So does Missouri have triple letter roads?

 

[freak]

What time are you planning on being there?

BTW, in another thread, didn't I predict that you would be talking to Mark about a Grom? ;D

I will be there at 9:00 when they open ::008::

 

[Andrew]

Yes, looks like we might get a bit of rain overnight Friday night, but Saturday should be perfect.

My dealer, Brad Niehaus has volunteered to give me some SWAG for the group, so a headcount would be helpful. Any updates to this list?

Great news, Eric and Debbie. Looking forward to meeting you.

Thank you, Fredz43. I looked at route from page 3 of this post and tried to follow it. If I'm reading my maps correctly, it appears that HH dead ends at 72, but the written directions show "to hwy HH go right" with the next line being "to hwy A go right."

I think I'll be able to figure it out, but should it be "right on HH, then right on 72, then almost immediate left on Hwy O" and then start back with the "to hwy A go right"? Im not sure, but I could not find on my map program where HH had an intersection with Hwy. A. I'll get it figured out Friday night with whoever laid out the route. Sure does look fun.

[fredz43]

Yes, it looks like there is a bit of a jog onto O from HH, then continue to a right on A. We'll be stopping at intersections to make sure everyone is on track and I'll be riding at the back of the group. Nobody will get lost. I have a GPS file if you would like me to email it to you, just need you to PM me your direct email address.

Hello, all just wanted to know what time on Friday is everyone is going to meet, and start time for ride on Saturday ?
Thank you dan

No official time to meet Friday. I'll suggest we plan to eat about 6 at the Tradition Inn. Freak suggested 0800 for Sat morning.

 

[freak]

I figure if we start gathering up by 8:00 we can get to the gas station shortly after and be on the road by 8:30
its all easy going and will be flowing at whatever the group wants, so the entire day will be relaxing and fun ::008::
see you guys saturday morning ::015:: ::003::
