Revival!

Technically, it was never dead, but new life is being breathed into the 9th installment of this annual ADV Rally. SLAP 2013 will be infused with a delicate elixir of choice grains and hops.
Yes, we will have BEER.

We will have catered meals. We will have epic dirt and epic, twisty pavement.
We will have organized events and maybe an ADV de-noobing ceremony.
We will have BEER too.

The Northwest Arkansas inmates have been gracious hosts for the past several years, so we Okies decided to help them out and handle the workload this year. Fortunately for you, we didn't decide to move it to Oklahoma.

After four years on top of White Rock Mountain, AR, we're moving the rally a few miles downhill to the Byrd's Adventure Center on the banks of the Mulberry River in Ozark, AR.


This location was chosen for several reasons:
1. Direct access via pavement (the roads to White Rock were getting rough)
2. More riding options (epic pavement, forest roads, singletrack, and everything in-between)
3. More activities for spouses and families

Lodging: Your registration fee includes tent/vehicle camping on site. Group showers , toilets, and water will be available for all to use, but the camping will be somewhat primitive, much like a tent city. There will be plenty of room for vehicle and trailer parking. If you decide to camp offsite, the "camping" portion of your registration will be considered a donation to the event. We want to encourage all attendees to stay at Byrd's so we can recapture the SLAP unity that has been fading a bit over the last few years.

RV Spots: If you're interested in RV accommodations (i.e. a campsite with RV hook-ups), then here is what you need to know... There will be a limited number of RV/electrical sites available at a first come-first served basis. Please specify this request when you register. We will maintain a list of who has asked for RV sites (in order of "dibs") and will do our best to accommodate. We have a certain number allotted (12), but may be able to add more as needed. Only paid registrants can hold an RV spot. Here's the RV LIST.

RV Disclaimer- please only reserve an RV site if you are a definite attendee to SLAP2013. If you just need to park a van or trailer and don't actually require electrical or water hook-ups, then don't reserve an RV site. We'll have plenty of room for car campers. (I'll be sleeping in my van at the campground.) Also... please don't be a selfish prick and reserve an RV site for just one person. Let's leave them for the families or groups, please. If you have a big ass RV and want to share your amenities, that would be cool. Thanks for understanding.
​

Meals: Included with your registration will be three meals professionally prepared by a local catering company... Friday dinner, Saturday breakfast, and Saturday Dinner. Non-alcoholic beverages will also be provided at meals.

Rides and Routes: There is a separate thread dedicated to route gathering, ride organization, and whatnot. It is the product of much attention by our fellow inmates in NW Arkansas. Click HERE for the stuff.

T-Shirts, swag, and other stuff: The t-shirt logo will look something like THIS. There is a high possibility that participants will get stickers, other SLAP-related chotchkies, and freebies including door prizes and raffles. It all depends on how well we do at begging for free shit from vendors and sponsors. See the not-all-inclusive sponsor list below. Wanna be a sponsor? Contact inmate Tomski74.

Liability: To participate in this event, you'll probably be asked to sign a waiver releasing liability (to ADV, Byrd's, and the event organizers) in the event that you somehow screw the pooch. We're all friends here. Be safe and don't do anything stupid. We'll try to do the same.

IN! Ordering my banjo off of Ebay right now.

In!!

I'll be glad to help out with whatever I can.

I'm thinking about an evening adventure bike trials type competition. There's a perfect little dirt playground right there in the middle of camp for it

In .... Will bring oxygen......

That sounds awesome.

IN. The prospect of lots of BEER did it for me. Buttermilk pie at Oark is a bonus.

IN..but no need T shirt...I am only attending for the fun, and thats all!

I've been waiting for this. I did the (non) swinging bridges ride this year, and have been looking forward to SLAP for '13. I'll be in tenting, and most likely riding down on the DRZ.

Ryan

+1 and ButtermilkPie

In

Add me to the in list. I will try to be there:)

N, hope to make it.

I have to be in dallas on the 20th of May. I am hopeing to ride my FZ1 down there from MN. If the trip happens I will plan to attend SLAP. Too far out to commit for sure at this time.

In and paid!

Ive been trying to make this for several years, and if work allows I'm gonna try! This is an awesome ride you put on, and like they say, Texans go to Arkansas to crash their bikes! Gear up!

SLAP 2013 T-Shirt details

By popular demand of my ever-opinionated TTPC focus group, the SLAP 2013 tee is one of the synthetic, moisture-wicking type.

Here is the logo:


Go HERE if you want to see the garment details from the manufacturer. We will be using "graphite" color.

Click HERE to register and buy a shirt.

T-shirt looks great, but after reading last year's ride reports I thought there would be helicopters and search & rescue trucks in the design.

Or maps.
Or common sense.
Or...
