SW MO - BS thread, RIDE RIDE RIDE

HillbillyNinja · 04-30-2009, 10:14 AM

Hey, since most of the MO threads are ST. Louis or north, I figured we'd have a little BS thread for those of us that live near the Ozarks and have the great roads!

INtroduce yourself. Pull up a chair and I'll send the kids after some beers. Its going to be a long summer.

Eldon, Just north of Bagnell Dam.

Why didn't you tell me the weather would chase me out of NW Ark. last week end. I was surprised at the damage done by last Jan? ice storm. Lots of damaged trees but the roads are still great!! Good to see this thread started, I am sure there will be mucho info added about your area. Thanks JED

Does Rolla count?

HillbillyNinja · 04-30-2009, 08:51 PM

Depends, do you want it to count?

I figure we could use this thread to talk about places like Mark Twain national, and points south....

Good thread to start. I am always around burbon MO area on the weekend. Lots of place to camp & ride, usually no one around.

HillbillyNinja · 05-01-2009, 08:35 AM

Stupid rain. Powersports of Joplin has a 100 mile group ride scheduled for Sunday. This is a reschedule of their April Fool's ride that was cancelled due to rain. I have a feeling these guys don't want to get their bikes wet and have to spend hours repolishing the chrome on their Shadow 750's. So, it will probably be cancelled again.

Here I am located in the hind end of the universe (aka Joplin, MO).

HillbillyNinja · 05-03-2009, 05:32 AM

IS this rain ever going to stop?? I really need a 100 mile therapy session right about now.

Gray Dragon · 05-03-2009, 06:36 PM

Well did riding with the herd today provide adequate therapy??

HillbillyNinja · 05-03-2009, 08:07 PM

No, the herd made it worse! Actually had a decent time, just wish the pace would have been double.
