The Official Kentucky Lake/Barkley Lake Ride Thread

[Questions]

Hello everyone kentuckyguy here.. As you can see I have started a new user name for the Kentucky Lake ride.. Myself an RcDurango have been in discussion about this years ride.. So far we have decided that we are keeping it the same weekend as always (1st weekend in Oct).. So this years ride will be October 4th leaving Oasis parking lot at 9:00am sharp... We are planning on the ride going backward this year with a stopover at the Barkley State Park for lunch like we did last year..

As always we will have our meet and greet dinner at The Oasis of Kuttawa on Friday night October 3rd at 7pm.. The Oasis is located just off I24 at exit 40 is Kuttawa.. You cant miss it..

We have had some bad weather this past weekend and as soon as it gets all clear I will be heading to the Days Inn in Kuttawa to see what I can do for room discounts..

Last years ride we ended back at the Oasis that Saturday night after the ride.. I am gonna leave it up to everyone here as to where we will go on the Saturday night after the ride this year.. We can do Kuttawa Harbor or the Oasis.. Hope to see this list start growing fast and cant wait to see everyone this fall... To make it easier I have added a poll so that everyone can vote on where they would like to go after the ride on Sat..

Update on the motel info.. I got us a group rate at the Days inn of Kuttawa (same place as last year).. Ground floor is 67.49+ tax and 2nd lever 62.99+ tax.. Here is their website is anyone would like to take a look at it... http://daysinnkuttawa.com/

Don't forget Jerry and Leesa. We are on board and ready to enter the taste test as well. Look forward to seeing old friends.

[jthornton]

I gotta say Nelida and I had a great time last year and look forward to this year. What is at Kuttawa Harbor? I didn't vote yet cause I don't have a clue what Kuttawa Harbor is/has.

We hope to bring some friends with us this year.
