I am riding a 2005 R6 up through Arkansas this Saturday. We take the Talimena pass over to Arkansas from Oklahoma and then head up to around Eureka Springs AR. Then on the way back go through Hot Springs and finally back down to Dallas. I think we have about 6 bikes going this time. I will be sure to get some nice pictures from the Mountains with the leaves changing colors. I can already feel my as getting sore just thinking about this trip!

 

Have fun hope it's not too cold don't end up on Ride2die.com.

Spent last weekend on my quad I'm still feelin it. Your ride should be a little smoother than mine was though.

 

Will you be documenting, "World Through My Windshield" on this journey? I'll be disappointed if you don't.

 

Be Careful.........Arkansas people drive worse than we do.

 

oklahoma is the worse those people cant drive for **** and they all go extremely slow and dont get out of the fast lane

 

...and that is the only reason I want a train horn on my truck.

If one is going 45 MPH in a 55 MPH zone, and that assclown will NOT get out of the way, a nice loud blast from a train horn will get their attention.

They will either move over, or have a heart attack and die.....either way, I can continue on my way.

 

1000 Miles on a Crotch Rocket!!! ...................... You'll be sorry when you get back, your gonna be feeling that for awhile

 

So wait, I thought you did stupid things on bikes and would never ride one again?

 

I used to have a Katana when I was in college in Fayetteville and made several trips to Eureka Springs. It's really nice through that area. Hot Springs is also very nice with all the lakes. Hope you have fun!

 

I sold my bike. But my boss has two of them and I ride one of his every now and then. Some people from my office including the president of my company go on a motorcycle trip every few months. We did this same trip back in June and it was 991 miles. My *** was sore for three days!!! But it was fun.

 

Whatever you do Dave, do NOT let THIS happen to you.

Be safe

 

OMG....I made it through about 2-3 minutes. I hate hearing about that stuff.

 

All I can say is wear your protective gear.

 

damn!!!

 

I have done this trip several times...STAY OFF THE PINE NEEDLES while traversing the Talimena pass. They are slicker than snot... Oh yeah, this trip is a piece of cake. Of course I do it on a Roadstar with an Ultimate seat, backrest, and kick my feet up on my highway bar, while being protected by my windshield.

Dave, since you are doing this trip on a rice rocket, I have to say your ******* is extemely large! Have fun, and stay safe!
