The Rodeway Inn has been chosen as our Base of Operations.

Tough choice.

The Edelweiss is cheaper, but about 0.35 miles up the road...not easy walking distance.

It's your choice not mine.  Rodeway inn just called me today and said the rest of the hotel has been booked solid outside our 20 rooms for part of the week.  Count yer lucky stars I got what I did.   Like I suggested, book early book often!

As Google maps states,  it will take you 8 minutes to walk that far.  That distance has to be good for burning off at least 1/2 a beer. (1/8th of a Canadian beer)

Yes, but you're missing the dilemma....walking 0.3 miles or saving $20+ bucks a night.

just as well get the route party going so here we go!!

Missouri:125 and 160 east of Branson - both of these are awesome, 86, 112 and 90 west of Branson

Arkansas: take 23 north out of Eureka Springs to 86 in Missouri up to Cassville then back down 37 to Washburn then 90 west to Noel and back. 86 and 90 are fabulous.  Missouri 86 and 90 are like a roller coaster and 90 is one of my top-10 road.

Take 62 east out of E.S. to Berryville to 21 south all the way down to Clarksville then take 123 back north to 74 to Jasper (eat there on square) to 43 to 21 and back up. This is one of my favorite loops.

These are MUST RIDE roads in the NW Arkansas area: 7,14,16,21,23,43 74,123,125,143, 221,311,341

I have ridden all of these roads many times. Any secondary road you take out of Eureka Springs, Berryville, Harrison, Jasper will be excellent.   Stay north of I-40 in Arkansas for the best riding.

Updated Ride routes and Mapsource GPS files.

I'm  booked in a two double-bed room at the Rodeway Inn for Mon. - Wed. nights.  I took a smoking room to stay on the east wing and down stairs.  

When I was booking, Dakota asked me, "So, what kind of bikes do you guys ride?"  I told him we aren't brand-specific but our mission is to travel great distances at high speeds.  He also commented that he was getting reservations for our group from all over.  

I'm already feeling that nervous anticipation that comes before hitting the road.

Looks like I better get my rear in gear and book a room at Edelwiess if I am coming.

That ain't no joke!
There will be classically trained musicians staying at the Rodeway Inn for the whole month of June for a music conference!  A little bird says we might have live entertainment for our stay at Rodeway.

Hell to the fricken' Yeah!!!

Cablebandit and I are keeping this on our radar.  There's a possibility that I'll have to travel to Denver in July for a conference; if that happens, we'll skip the National and make a ride out of my conference trip.  Otherwise, we'd both really like to make the National this year.

I know I would love to see you two there, hope it works out
