Ozarks are awesome. lots of great riding around there... and best of all... not a whole lot of traffic. (unless we hit a popular weekend like i did in 2008... bike show and car show... fuck'n A!)

Gas the problem is... I'd say 90% of our members are EAST COAST!... I agree... there is some fuck'n amazing riding to be done in Colorado, Nevada, California, Oregon, Washington... but we just don't have the members there..

He's not the only one. Getting an entire week off is asking way too much from my job anyway...at least all at once. The Wednesday thru Sunday method has always worked very well for me, and others always have the option to come earlier or stay later.

I think this is best. If its during the same time next year ill be able to do almost the whole trip. If the bank will allow lol.

You guys could have gone longer. I could only go those days. There wasn't anything stopping y'all from staying longer.

That's a bit high imho. If we're going to go long distance, I will expect the rally to last at least a week beyond arrival time.

Trip and I are planning 17 days next year to go out to Cali. Maybe some of you could tag along at certain points, but we won't be stopping at any one place for any length of time.

Yeah if we have the rally the same weekend, we won't be there.

If we have it another and it's close to me, I will probably show up just for the weekend with the leave I am taking for the trip.
