Billy is working on it now. PP has to deposit a penny in the account to make sure all the info is correct. That takes a few days we discovered.
Cheers,

so...
who all is in for this? we're trying to get some plans together since it's only 2 weeks away. art, how are the back roads to where little babies cry.......in the ghetto? would you recommend two stellas riding up there or would you suggest renting a truck??? i'd love to ride but since todd and i know nothing about fixing anything if something breaks i'm not sure it's the smartest thing for us to do. of coarse it would also depend on the weather.
let's discuss, mmmmkay? |

It is about 250 miles. Art has done that ride far more than I, so I would rely on him for the later info. I would allow 6 hours, with regular gas/pit stops and snacks. It is more fun riding in a group.
I will ride Red, and it looks like Sandy is coming, so she can tailgun for a group in her Explorer.
Anybody want to ride up Friday am? |

BTW, I am allowing 50mph travel speed, which should accomodate all the scooters we would be likely to have in a group.
Also, if you keep a jacket patch with "states ridden in", this will be a good opportunity to add Arkansas, since you will be right next to the border. |

if y'all are going to ride the stellas i would get a sito first, it would make it a bit more comfortable for y'all.
a 250cc twist and go can probably do it in 6, but we've done a few 250 mile trips with smaller bikes and stellas and it varied from 7-8 to 10 hours depending on the size of the group, smoke/pit stops, weather, melt downs, etc....
