Posted by Rick Butler: But......even though everyone is invited on this ride, I wanted and have planned to cover a considerable (doable) amount of territory and miles for the Saturday ride (321 miles). So therefore, Linda is not going with me and I'll be riding alone and sharing a room with Joe Freeland. And we will be staying at the Best Western in Russeville, where we have stayed countless times over the years. So here are the details: Fri, Nov 4th - Depart from the Wylie McDonalds 8:00AM - 366 mi Sat, Nov 5th - Leave out around 8:00AM - 321 mi Sun, Nov 6th - Leave for home details TBD - another appproximate 366 mi. Like I said, we will be staying at the Best Western in Russellville Nov 4th and 5th, where their AAA/AARP rates are $63/night (plus tax)for non-smoking 2 queen beds. So you can go to www.bestwestern.com and register on-line. And we have a couple of memorable side routes that we might consider which are along the route I have chosen: - The 2 miles of gravel road to the White River Overlook at Calico Rock. - Gas up at Yellville.....and this time we will NOT leave Joe Freeland :-) GARMIN FILE CAN BE DOWNLOADED AT LINK BELOW! |
