If you guys end up in London, holler at me. I can be there in ten minutes from my house. It's not much to look at other than the lake and nuclear plant, though.

hey.. just come on to LR and ride back home with us..

wixil · « **Reply #52 on:** April 06, 2011, 01:58:53 PM »

I need a set of tires before I feel comfortable riding too far from home.

coke · « **Reply #53 on:** April 06, 2011, 04:22:31 PM »

Radam and Taxi, I got my bike Friday around noon and it is running GREAT. Can't wait til the 17th. see you guys then. and lets not forget to give wixil a shout out as we near London Radam if we go that way.

Radam · « **Reply #55 on:** April 11, 2011, 07:37:57 AM »

Sounds good to me. We may as well go that way and get a pic of Godzilla by the nuclear plant, and get one more sohc in on the ride.

Excellent..

Somebody shoot me an ETA for London or we can pick a spot on 64 for to meet up.

coke · « **Reply #58 on:** April 11, 2011, 10:35:08 AM »

Wixil, we will have to wait until we are ready to leave LR since we will be at the mercy of the Miss/La rider on the time he gets to LR

wixil · « **Reply #59 on:** April 11, 2011, 10:57:10 AM »

Coke and Radam, I PM'd you my number so we can coordinate on the day of.

wixil · « **Reply #60 on:** April 13, 2011, 07:05:44 AM »

I may have another to tag along for a few miles. Ran into a local guy a few weeks back that rides a CB500F, so I contacted him about the ride. He's waiting on sprockets and a chain, but he sounded interested.

Radam · « **Reply #61 on:** April 13, 2011, 07:43:03 AM »

Awesome! The more bikes the better. I got your PM. I'll save you in my phone so we can call before we leave LR.

wixil · « **Reply #62 on:** April 17, 2011, 06:09:58 PM »

I hope you guys didn't run into any problems since I hadn't heard from anyone.

Was Cody able to get going to get back home? I saw a post where he was having charging problems I think.

coke · « **Reply #65 on:** April 18, 2011, 06:09:40 AM »

we brought him a battery and had to leave him there.. they didn't have any batteries for his bike .. I think the charging system was working BUT the battery wouldn't hold a charge .. after he got it started he could run it for a bit but seemed like any other electrical use would kill the bike. He was going to put a charge on the battery we brought and hope that he got out today. We didn't bet back to Van Buren until 1:35 as it was, so we just unfortunately had to leave him back at his hotel with his wife and bike.

I hope he got it started and is able to head home today.

Glad you guys made it one piece. I bet that was a long ride on a 350, Coke. Your rear end is tougher than mine.

coke · « **Reply #67 on:** April 18, 2011, 09:48:07 PM »

it was long and it was dark but it was fun.. Radam and I tore up 270 from Hot Spings to Y City in the middle of the night. If he hadn't been leading I think I could have taken those corners faster on the 350. LOL LOL just kidding, Radam cooked my ass but i did my best to keep up on that 350. I need to fire up my little 650 ninja and take the pig trail with Radam some time.. every body else better just watch out.

Radam · « **Reply #68 on:** April 19, 2011, 05:32:03 AM »

That sounds like a plan, Coke. I could tell the whole time that you wanted to go just a little faster, but that little 350 was pouring it's heart out for you. I was very impressed at how fast it went. It was hard for me to tell how far behind me you were sometimes. That little bar end mirror can be hard to judge distance with at night. We'll have to go to the pig trail or just go out 270 again to go canoe the Ouachita sometime.

Wixil, I'm sorry we didn't get to include you. Maybe sometime we can get together and ride. If you want to make it to the vintage breakfast club sometime we do it the last Saturday of every month. This month it's the 30th at Uncle Gaylords (it's a restaurant) in Fayetteville at 9:30am. If you want to come in town the night before I'm sure I can talk my wife into letting you stay with us.

wixil · « **Reply #69 on:** April 19, 2011, 06:09:22 AM »

I'll definitely make it to one of the breakfast meetings. I have some friends in Goshen I stay with sometimes, so I can always hit them up for the spare room. I've got to be in Texarkana the 30th of this month, but I'll see if I can free up my weekend for the club meeting in May.
