Ozarks Meetup 2012

Oh hey, forgot to ask: Does the Hub have a pool? Should I pack my trunks? Should Trin pack his speedo?

No pool - but you can slosh around in the bathtub like an eel if you'd like. I don't think it's going to be warm enough anyway. The Buffalo river is a few miles down the road, but the water's still like 60°. It's been pretty cool in the evenings - I'd recommend everyone bring at least 1 long sleeve garment to lounge around in the evening.

Well, Debbie called to day and said she had a room open up so Aaron and I will be there sometime Friday. Can't wait to do some riding!

 

[BrianWest58]

Okay, make me official! Heading out in a few hours. This is when night shift kinda sucks BUT, I'm comin even though I need to bug out Sunday some time. Depending on Garmin or Google it's 6.5 to 9 hours from here so should be there around 6 pm I figure. See ya there!

 

[Venomous Duck]

Have fun everyone! Be safe and vlog some shit! I wish I could make this year again but damn work. I plan on discussing it with the area Pres. and see if he can influence the rest to have the meeting in June or April. Yes one man can make a difference and if you see me selling my bike it means I was fired lmao.

It is supposed to be nice so get the cameras set up!

Well, that was freakin' awesome.

 

[BrianWest58]

It was really cool to meet and hang out with everyone for awhile! I'll show up more prepared and rested at the next one

Yepper - despite my issues, I still enjoyed being there/meeting with everyone! We had a great turn-out and hope everyone had a good time as well. It was easy to sense the exhilaration folks get when riding some of those roads.

Lets just do this every weekend!

You got to keep us updated on how it went with the tow's insurance company...

What happened, did the truck drop the bike or something?

Well, I turned in a $1,023 bill to the tow company, they insist on ordering the parts and having shipped to me. I've asked for order confirmations so we shall see.

Matt - after this blows over, I think it would be a good idea to post up the "loading" video so everyone here will know how NOT to let their bike get strapped down.

Yep, that video is next on my to-do list. Here's a video detailing your problems all weekend:

After my wreck last April I helped the wrecker driver strap the bike down. I watched him for about a minute and realized he didn't exactly know what he was doing, so I hobbled up there and started telling him. It was a short ride to where we were going (5-ish miles) and I spent the whole time watching the bike in his mirror. I think the trucks suspension being so stiff actually works against us in these situations.
