Friday looks like rain for sure.
Borrow a truck and hit some water falls. Here is some video from Triple Falls from a few weeks back. The hike is a piece of cake but the drive isn't accessible by Street Triple.

Then head down 123 and catch some waterfalls. Hawcreek, Packrat and Pam's Grotto. All easy hikes. These 3 are all close together and accessible by Street Triple but you'll be crossing a creek on a cement low water bridge. If the water is too high, you'll have to park and wade.

OKStriple, et al:

Looks like Styler and I must change our arrival to Friday. Neither of us can get away on Thursday after all, so we'll watch for a 2-hour window of decent weather on Friday and head that way. Living 100 miles away has its advantages. Ride Safely Keith

Looks like a short weather window so we'll head out shortly probably south on 123 then west. Roads will be wet but not too rainy

Just got home - Trailer to Tom Keiths house where I left the bike to work on after a new RR comes in later this week.
Thanks to:
Dan and Ardell for running to Clarksville in a rainstorm to pick up a battery :scooter4:
Travis for staying with me so the Hillbillys with banjo's didn't make me 'squeel like a pig' :eek:
Ardell and Travis for running back to the HUB to get a trailer and come back for me (2 hours) :tow:
Dan for hanging out with me for 2 hours waiting in the cold and hearing my life story :zzz:
Everyone for helping to set up the frankenstein RR till midnight that ultimately didn't work. :grouphug:

Had a great time once again in the great Arkansas countryside with existing friends and some new ones. Even though I had an incident on Saturday it was still one of my most memorable days riding ever, for the record Nate helped me pick the bike up as well as serving as cameraman for the spectacular event (thanks man!) and we continued on our trek through the ozarks! That being said if it were not for me wearing ALL my gear the results would have been catastrophic, my gloves=ruined, my leather pants=ruined, my textile jacket=ruined, my helmet=visor scraped severely, my boots=scuffed in all the contact points as designed, MY BODY= COMPLETELY UNTOUCHED AND INTACT except for a tiny bruise on the inside of my left leg where the bike initially went down on it. I hope you all can take a second to remember that riding with gear greatly increases your chances of continuing your journey through life even if your bikes doesn't. Anyhow the raid was a great time and I'm glad you all came out and made it possible!!!
Thanks Tom, Ardell, Dan, Stefan, Mark, Keith, Tyler, Nate, and local legend Gloryracing! Was nice to meet rushlow and hope to see you all and some new faces again next year!!!

As always - it's a thrill to get everyone together, despite the uncooperative weather. Thanks to everyone that was able to attend and help make some more memories!

We got to see how friends help friends :grouphug:, all you guys just rock. :thumbsup:

And Travis is indeed, one tough mofo. :thumbup:
