Ride to the Rally

**BudMan** · 05-11-2016, 09:16 PM

Gene and I have come up with a plan.
Crystal, Kathryn, Gene and I will meet in Clarksville, AR. on Monday.
About 10:30 at the convenience store on the south side of I-40 at exit 57.
We'll head north on AR 21 out of Clarksville riding our way up to Jasper.
Then up by Mountain Home and Hwy 5 into Missouri.
A few back roads a few U.S. highways and we'll be there.
Anyone else headed our way are more than welcome to ride up there with us.

I'm counting down the days now. I'm ready to go.

We may catch up with you in Jasper. I'll firm that up as it gets closer.

Out of Mountain Home; 412 East to 9 and then to 19 north all the way to Salem, MO is a really nice route to ride. JMO. :)

We plan on having lunch at the Ozark Café. Hopefully you can meet us there.

That would be Salem, AR. to Salem, MO.

Thanks for the tip. I'll take your advice and come home that way.

Thought you said Clarksville, AR to Salem, MO.

Anyway, the is the route I was referring to. It is really a great ride. However, you'll be working all the way there with a smile.

I did say Clarksville. But I noticed that where 412 meets AR 9 is in Salem, AR.
So that's why I said it would be Salem to Salem.

The route you've posted takes AR. 123. No doubt one of Arkansas best rides.
I like the southern end (west of 7) better than the ride to Mt. Judea.
Wish I could make it to the NC rally but I just can't get it done this year.

**BudMan** · 06-04-2016, 06:54 PM

It looks like Heath and a buddy of his will join us for the ride up.
Jesse I hope to see you and Gina in Jasper.

**Framer** · 06-04-2016, 09:50 PM

I wanta go..... Oh yay we're pulling a trailer and we don't live in Arkansas and we're going the day before... Forget it.

**Rasta** · 06-05-2016, 08:06 PM

Anyone else going from Iowa to the rally?

jesse · 06-11-2016, 09:16 AM

Looks like everything is going to work out. Gina, Jane (my sister) and I will meet up in Jasper and ride in with the northbound crew. I am so ready for this, I just wish I could make the NCR and ride with some of Vern's friends on this occasion.
