Eureka Springs 2023

[AR. Hillbilly]

The official dates are October 6-8
were reserved at the KOA again but with the possibility of moving to a location that will hold all of us.
if anybody needs help with reservations or anything just give me a holler.

[Brad_G]

Had to double check as I couldn't find my KOA reservations. Thankfully I did in fact make them. Memory and this getting older thing kinda sucks some days.

While I don't want to wish summer away, I'm already looking forward to being there!

Don't forget to bring an extra tire and tools again please....

[Brad_G]

If I trailer I will actually have one and the tools (not new however). But I may actually ride down this year, see what the weather looks like as it approaches.

[Penguin]

We're booked and looking forward to it!

[Brad_G]

Will be great to see you guys again.

[Mr. Miyagi]

I just checked my work schedule, I am not scheduled to work on those days. Would a hotel reservation anywhere in Eureka Springs be good or is there a better/best options?

[Brad_G]

I'll let AR. Hillbilly chime in as for what's "best" but there are some hotels that aren't far from the KOA campground. The campground is kind of the official start and stop point for the daily rides (or least has been).

My and my wife are staying at Topo

[catnaper2]

Karen and I are checking into the KOA on Wed., the 4th and checking out on Mon., the 9th. Very much looking forward to seeing everyone!

[Lug Nut]

If I can get time off I'll be down again. Hopefully it won't be 30° when I leave headed north to Indiana this time. That was rough.

[AR. Hillbilly]

Point west resort or the Harlee inn

[Mr. Miyagi]

Point West is all booked up, I didn't find Harlee. I think I am going to stay in town, It's supposed to be 10 miles away. I am looking at The Log Cabin Inn.

[jd750ace]

Planning to be there again for sure. Might run up that way next weekend, but I know it's event season, so may not after checking the calendar. Saw that group ride crash up in Missouri from last weekend. That was a bad scene, and one of the reasons we don't ride so tight.

[AR. Hillbilly]

The Harlee country inn is now the Topo motel

The Harlee country inn is now the Topo motel

So not the KOA?

[AR. Hillbilly]

So not the KOA?

The koa is still the koa
the Harlee country inn is now called the Topo motel and Point west is all booked up that weekend.

[jd750ace]

So, is the Country Inn still the Country Inn?

[AR. Hillbilly]

In town?
the motel you guys stay at out by the camp ground is now the Topo.
I believe the country inn in town is still there.

[Mr. Miyagi]

I have a little room at the Log Cabin Inn reserved. Lord willing, I plan on being there.

[Lug Nut]

Made reservations for hotel wed-mon.

BRAD! I'll be bringing my black Stratoliner Deluxe down so please have front and rear tires available in your trailer. Thanks.

[Brad_G]

How about we just assume if they're Dunlop 404's they won't last until you get home. Depending on weather I may ride down this year. I trailered the first year because it was only in the 40's and just did that ever since. But in April I rode to Texas and realized I could make the journey to ES without much issue. Now trying to decide how important my coffee pot is to bring.

[Mr. Miyagi]

If you just have to have one, I think that the motel that I am booked in has a coffee pot.

[Lug Nut]

Avon Cobra Chrome!

[Brad_G]

Nice! I have faith those will last a little longer.

[roadiemort]

Depends on how many HD's he has to bitch slap lol.

[rsokie]

Brad letme know if you ride down and i will bring the coffe pot and coffee. you still have your old haunt? my oldest son and Wife are coming he just got a '07 Midnight

[rsokie]

might add we will be in Oct 3 early afternoon leaving Monday early

[Lug Nut]

Ok Brad...I went ahead and installed a Riken Raptor car tire on the back of the black liner...205-50-17. should get me 35k-40k miles. I'll be safe for the trip! Front tire looks good for now!

Nice! I put the rear Commander on that you had shipped to me this spring before my Texas trip. Got a new front awaiting installation. Maybe in a few weeks when the heat isn’t as bad. I have mixed feelings about Eureka trip. It’s always a highlight for the year but also means riding season is coming to an end.
