Hmmm, so far 2 from Illinois, and 327 from Texas.

Looks like there will be plenty of Lone Star beer to 'share'. epper:

"Friends" is used pretty loosely also. I think it refers to anyone who lets him ride...well, you know, the "b" word. :clapping:

you must have been good in school, you have a good memory. but it is getting a little old

I'm just wondering why the move from Eureka Springs to Osage Beach
spent some time going over maps of great riding roads and I see plenty over in Arkansas but few if any in the Osage beach area. I'm sure there must be something............

I was there for a hog rally a few years back and there is plenty to do. they have a couple of great bbq places and a restaurant on the left side of the highway just before you get to bagnell dam that is really good ..... oh yea the riding is good too
as you go through the town of bagnell there is a little biker friendly bar on the right side f the road about 2 blocks before the dam . good watering hole.

if you are into golf (im not ) Tantara resort is said to have a good golf course. and then there is the lake... enjoy!!!

I will be going through there the first week end of june going to Olean testical festeval

Yahoo from Texas we are coming to the Midwestern. Jerry just got a new trike after riding 2 wheels for over 45 years and now a bad back. He has seen the light and come over to the triker frame of mind. He bought a 2016 H-D Freewheeler and is loving it. First thing he said we got home from the dealership was I can go with you to the trike ralleys now. I'm still on the H-D 2012 Triglide. Jerry thinks I need a new trike too!!! We'll see..... they sure are pretty.

 

[Big Juice]

Hello OJ can you keep up with Jan and her new ride ??????

Oh heck no! She is driving me crazy with wanting to ride here, and there, and over there, and I am saying, how are we going to pay for all this? She said, she will make sure it works.........what will I be giving up for my trike.........hummmm....... we have created a triker, for sure!

 

[Ezjerry]

Hey Dennis, welcome to the club. Shoot a PM my way through this web site with your email address. I have a group thing set up for emails which we are going to use to get everyone coordinated as the time gets closer. That just seems to be a lot more efficient and faster than trying to work through these postings. It also ensures that everyone is on the same page. Well, we have a problem with Jr because he reads slow, so when you send something to him you need to write slow...:cxtv: I might already have your email address but please send it to me anyway to make sure I have the right one. If it's OK with you, I will add you to the email group, then you will have the same info as all the rest of us.

Right now the plan is to have a big meetup at Jr's house. We will stay there until all the food and liquor are gone, then we will head north. Jr said no problem, it won't take long.

This is all going to be pretty informal so just wear your fun clothes and be ready for anything. Glad to have you with us.

We are new to the TT group, would like to join the group going up. We live in Blanchard Okla, close to Norman. How would we get hooked up and start receiving emails and plans on going?

Will,you and Kathy are certainly welcome to ride with Sherry and me. We plan to ride straight up I-44 so we could meet you in Chickasha,OKC,or somewhere else close

 

[TexasGuy]

Welcome

Greetings Will. I have somehow got myself appointed unofficial wagon master for the group ride up to OB. Not sure how it happened - maybe I am the only one who everyone thinks can herd cats. :clapping:

We would be glad to have you join us. We are coming from various places. The final meeting point will be the morning of the 19th at the Super 8 in Little Rock AR. I have set up a group to include all the email addresses of everyone in this bunch; if you would like to join us, please send me a PM with your email address and cell phone number (I promise to not sell it to more than a few hundred of my closest friends ). I will send an email to you with all the particulars, and will keep you informed of any updates, changes, etc.

It is a full day's ride from Blanchard to Little Rock so undoubtedly you would want to do that on Saturday the 18th.

You can crash at the Super 8 with most of the rest of us, or feel free to stay somewhere else. Plans are for KSU at the Super 8 at 9:00 am sharp on the 19th.

If you decide to take a different route to OB and bypass LR, please let me know so I won't be watching for you.

I will be coming from the North, I'm going g to Iowa to watch the Nascar truck race. After the race the next morning I'll ride to O.B. Kathy and I are going to be camping, *we will meet you there. # homelessonaharley.

 

[kybigmac]

A friend and I will be coming from Murray Ky, him on a Goldwing trike and me on a Venture trike. Looking forward to meeting everyone. Is there a updated list of people who are coming?

 

[Big Juice]

Current standings........Jan and Dot will be riding to Marshall, TX on the 17th, spend the night at the Econo Lodge there, then head to Little Rock for the night of the 18th at the Super 8. If, and that's a big IF, my trike gets done in time I will be joining them. The shorter day may be good for me and my "new" transmission. Don't expect me, but look for me and my Orange Angry Bull...........

Tom I am ready, Darlene and I need a vacation and I can not thing of a better one then a ride with friends to a place we have not been. & meeting old friends and making new one.

 

[Ozarkryder]

Gloria and I went over to Osage Beach this past Saturday. The Quail's Nest - looks good, pretty easy to get to. Drove around the area, the lake has a lot of shoreline, and is spread out like most lakes formed in the valleys when a river is dammed. Will be a nice ride around it. <br />
<br />
Right behind the Quail's nest, even connected by a sidewalk, is an outlet mall. A large outlet mall. Then I made a mistake. I wanted to see what stores there were, so as we were (supposedly) on the way back home I drove through. Then I heard, "Oh- I want to stop in here for a minute." 3 1/2 hours later, we finally left Osage Beach. To be fair, we both did some shopping - lots of clothing stores, a knife store, tool stores, places to eat, etc.

It is a very complete outlet mall with many stores, and some good prices, though $125 for a Coach purse was a surprise, Gloria said that was a good deal. I don't understand $75 for man's wallet. and that was st 50% off! <br />
We may have to set aside a day in the schedule.just for that.

 

[Ed Hobgood]

Tom, I have planned on making the gathering for at least a couple of days, but the trike has break line problems. If I can get the line repaired (waiting for Richard to call) I will be there and if not, hope everyone has a good time.

Even if the trike isn't 100% come on up anyway. You're part of the family no matter how you arrive!.

It will be a better time if you can make it. Trike or not.

[trikeleader]

Ed,
You are welcome weather you ride your tike or any other mode of transportation.
We want to see you and visit with you, the ride is secondary.

I think Harold and Joyce Jones will not be there. Harold had a knee replacement and Joyce, not to be outdone, broke her foot. I'm sure they would welcome any and all prayers for a speedy and complete recovery.

 

[clint44]

Sherry and I really wanted to attend the event but our youngest grandson is having surgery on the 20th.
Hopefully,we will see all of you at a later gathering.
