[oldbikers]

I will also have a friend with me.

[trip]

Sorry, didn't mean to not include Bea....(I wasn't sure if she was going to make it). Or is this another friend......does Bea know? http://s2.images.proboards.com/grin.gif http://s2.images.proboards.com/grin.gif

[oldbikers]

Another friend and yes Bea knows http://s2.images.proboards.com/grin.gif

[jamiep24]

Don't forget me! I'll be there Thursday night.

[socwkbiker]

I'm telling Bea!

[trip]

Bea knows Jeff.......makes me wonder what the old fart is up to. Jim is probably bringing Miss Mississippi on the back of his Nomad. LOL.

[trip]

Don't forget me! I'll be there Thursday night.

Sorry Jamie...got you on there now.

[Cajunrider]

I think he's bringing along another "Old Fart". I don't think Bea is very concerned about this friend. http://s2.images.proboards.com/tongue.gif

Wish Annette and I could be there.....Ya'll have fun and ride safe.

[Cajunrider]

Wish y'all could have made it Jim and Annette. We'll miss you guys.

[oldbikers]

Well it rained yesterday and this morning they said it is going to rain for the next 3 days so I guess I will get wet Thursday morning. :'(
Jim sure wish y'all were coming I will sure miss Annette oh and you too http://s2.images.proboards.com/grin.gif

[trip]

Forecast here says it'll rain until Thursday morning, then clear and be sunny the rest of the week. We'll see.

[Cajunrider]

I think we'll get wet on the way up is the forecast is accurate. But starting Thursday evening, the weather should be great for the entire weekend. http://s2.images.proboards.com/cool.gif

We are playing the rain also. The percentage of chance keeps going down so things are looking better. Suppose to have heavy rain here tonight 80% chance. I figure we will hit some rain Wednesday and Thursday but both days are calling for rain in the afternoons. So we may be where we are heading by the time the rain starts.

That is me in my rain suit in the picture below. So it is not like I haven't been wet before.

[petenomad]

Watchman, it started raining in KC around 4pm and is still raining now. We're planning on doing the first 100 miles Wednesday night after work and it looks like it may rain on us on the way to Pittsburg as well.
Sure hope it dries up for the Talimena ride.

[trip]

Five day forecast for Antlers....looks pretty good.

[watchman]

Rained here until about midnight. The temp is 40 feels like 35. We will be leaving in 2 to 3 hours. I am going to go check the roads shortly to see which gravel is the least muddy. Once we get south of the Missouri river the temps start warming up. Springfield, MO is supposed to have a high today of 56 with a slight chance of afternoon showers. At least we are not leaving in the rain.

[Cajunrider]

Be careful Watchman and everyone else who is leaving in inclement weather.

[Griz]

I hope you all have a GREAT time! I really wanted to attend this event to get to meet and ride with some KawaNOW members. Unfortunately, I just can't get away from the office this week. Hopefully I will get to meet and ride with some of you in the near future. Have a lot of fun and ride safe.

[jamiep24]

Heading out about lunchtime tomorrow. Hope to get there around 7 or 8. See y'all tomorrow night or Friday morning. Looks like perfect riding weather for the weekend. Nice and cool. Jamie

[nightmare]

Well we will see you all tomorrow night at the motel, just got in town myself trying to get everything together. You all have a safe trip up, see you soon

[trip]

I'll be leaving tomorrow afternoon also. I should get to the hotel about 5-6pm. See you guys then. Everyone ride safe.

[Cajunrider]

Darlene and I will be pulling out at 06:30 providing there is no fog. If so, we will wait until it lifts before leaving. We will see you all at the motel tomorrow evening sometime after 5 pm. We have 500 miles to travel as per Mapquest. Everyone ride safely.

[jesse]

Plan is to leave around noon, stop and have lunch somewhere on the way. Chance of AM showers, hope it clears up by time to leave. Mapquest says 4 hrs driving time, hope to be there by 5:30 or 6:00. See you all soon.

[oldbikers]

Well it is 3:00am and I have been up for an hour or so damn sinus trouble oh well 3 hrs sleep is enough on have 400 miles to go see y'all this afternoon.

[Cajunrider]

Been awake since 03:10 but crawled out of bed at 04:30. We have fog this morning so I may not be leaving at 06:30 as planned. Hopefully it's just a patch of it that will burn off after sunrise. Don't think so though. Heavy rain moving ESE out of Oklahoma into southern Arkansas. Hoping that it will get out quick and leave a nice day to travel.

[oldbikers]

Mitch I know it's not Saturday but a little shower early in the week won't hurt you http://s2.images.proboards.com/grin.gif

[chainsaw]

I had a change of plans due to sickness, so I have to cancel this weekend. Sorry, but will make it next time. Family first as the saying goes. Disappointed, but I'll get over it.
