Hangar flying, bench racing, ... I guess this is keyboard touring? Today would have been the fifth day on the road towards the Tenere event. Yesterday with family in South Carolina, and this afternoon/evening with family in Florida. Tomorrow would have started the trek westward where we would have pick up all the remaining missing southern states, completing our solid string of states from the Atlantic through Arizona.

Stupid virus. :(

I know its a bummer. Come on down and we can just ride in the Daniel Boone NF. I've got lots of tracks from the Loose Nut DS ride and the Red River Scramble that need exploring.

Thinking about it! As soon as it's staying a little bit warmer at night so I can enjoy my little cabin I'll throw the WR250 on the hitchhauler and head down. Just a couple more weeks.......

I'll be down for a re-do in the fall, just as long as we don't get a early snowfall. TBH I lost track of the spring date so wasn't even on my calendar, gonna have to get my calendar reset since this lock down has my summer plans in jeopardy now.

As Dirt_Dad and others noted, some of us would have been in Marble Falls tonight.
I would at this point have the toy hauler loaded and ready. As soon as my medical treatment gets done tomorrow would have left for southern Missouri and be in Marble Falls early on Thursday.

And now the toy hauler is still winterized and parked in the back yard. Now I am depressed! But have a Thursday afternoon ride scheduled (but all slab and the other bike!)

I was just there yesterday. Out and about riding the twisty AR roads on a beautiful sunny 85°F day. Was nearby so decided to pull in for a look. No signs of any renovation, place looks the same.

I'm cheating on the Tenere this trip. I had never owned or even ridden a sportbike so gifted myself one for my 60th b-day this year. Decided I better give it a try while my body can still bend. It's taking some getting used to for sure but I'm liking it. Did almost 600 miles yesterday and I wasn't completely spent yet. Body is feeling just fine this morning.

If it’s any consolation, the weather looks kinda iffy. Might have been a rainy camp out.

No signs of any renovation?
Didn't notice the new roof on the restaurant building?
Or the new entrance to it on the south side?
Must not have looked in any of the rooms or the motel check-in lobby either because they have all been renovated and update/changed.

Nice looking bike btw :)

No I didn't peek into any of the rooms since nobody was around. My comment was really about the grounds as that was the limit of my visit. Looked the same to me as in 2015 except I didn't remember that redwood fence. I'm a property manager so I know how easy it is to drop thousands $$ into repair and upkeep that is basically invisible. I thought the rooms were acceptable in 2015 so they must be really nice now after renovation. I hope our fall dates stick.

Do we have a Fall date? If not, we should start a poll and pick a date soon.
First or second weekend in October !
