    You can find a place in EL Dorado Springs, Mo!

    If you go down 71 cut across 54 to 13 your just 58 miles from Springfield!

    Ok guys we have a repo at the bank, I don't want to tell you I can pick it up for but I will tell you what the bike is missing! :)

    It has no bags from the original purchase 4,879 miles 2008 Yamaha verseys and no major scrapes. Would you guys give $3,200?

    I was going to come by the Rusty Jug but thought it might be rude to introduce myself without so much as a card to buy a coke! Will definitely be back, want to come back up and buy the Kriega Bag I intended to and with card I'll definitely stop by and say hi!

    Now, for that Versys, my guess is it's a kawasaki instead of a Yama. No way I'd give $3200 for it, it's red and red is slow...but just for info...where's it located???:ear:ear:evil

    Lol! I meat to say Kawasaki, I sold my wife's Yamaha yesterday, so she could buy a new show saddle! Lol!

    The bank is going to sell it tomorrow, I think it's going to take around the 3 mark, but would like to ride this winter and get my money back in the Spring! :)

    Thanks Rusty - I will contact the shop to arrange a tire change.

    Looks like El Do will make a fine home base for this trip. - Is the mineral spring still in use?

    That was the chili cook off downtown, extra methane gas was noticed in the air!

    The spring is still functional and you can drink as much as you want! Which will be one sip, 90 some minerals, the town was known as "city of gold" besides the springs healing power, one sip was like drinking a multi-mineral pill. But once they realized it was not the fountain of youth, the town lost its hold on the healing water powers!

    El Dorado Cycle's Fall 2012 Dual Sport Adventure Ride


    Many of you have asked,"When will you be having another dual sport ride?", and even though the leaves have started to fall, we thought we would embrace the season and take a back road tour of the wonderful colors autumn has to offer.
    Saturday, November 3rd
    Starting and ending here at El Dorado Cycle
    70-80 miles of mostly dirt road
    Departure between 10AM-NOON
    Arrows, Maps, GPS
    If the summer has taken its toll on your tires, don't worry, we stock most popular brands such as Michelin, Continental, Bridgestone, Heidenau, and Shinko. As always, if you have any questions, or need to schedule your tire change or other service, you can call Randy at 417-876-5342 or email us at Info@eldoradocycle.com. We hope to see you all there.

    I am still planning a ride this Saturday at 10am at Sams in Joplin.
    See prior posts for a link to the map which has the route posted on it.
    Im hoping to get about 10 bikes.
    Hopefully the fall colors will be peaking near Eureka Springs!!
    Give me a hollar if interested.

    Dress warm!

    ALSO, BE ALERT for swirling leaves in the curves...the wind is stripping the trees and them thar leaves tend to gather in the curves stripping away any and all traction! :eek1

    Hey Rusty Jug _ made it to town. The shop was great - changed my tire and gave me a ride to my room. Found a spot to park my rig. Even had some ribs at a local restaurant.

    Thanks for the heads up.
