[cjackg]

I am trying to map out the route. What is LBL? I found the startbatbthe oasis diner. The state penn. but not the LBL.
thanks

If anyone gets the ryde fully mapped out, how about showing us the route on a map....

Back from vacation and been trying to get caught up on the ride. Anything you need for me to do at this time? I know some will
be camping and which campground would you think works best for those camping? I want to say to those folks that are already
coming, Thank You! But spread the the word also. We think there are other that would come that just don't know about it. I
could see more from IN, OH, KY, MO, AK, TN that could come. It's a really nice ride and weekend.

I am ready for a nice long ride I guess we will have to take a short ride at the end of he month. Maybe holland Michigan .

Was able to get together with KentuckyGuy this weekend and we rode a big part of the rt. Again I think you will enjoy the ride. Went by and checked out camp site Outback RV in Eddyville and they only have a few because most of theirs is full time sites. $30.00 with Good Sams discount a night. Another option would Hillman Ferry in LBL at $28.00 a night with full hookups. Both are about same distance form Buzzard Rock. If camping at Outback you may want to reserve a spot soon. KentuckyGuy and I are both planning to attend Lamont's BBQ so look us up if you have any questions.

Update 6-3-12
Just had a nice long chat on the phone with RCDURANGO.. We taked about how long the ride would be an route we would take.. We descided to ask everyone how long of a ride they wanna take.. For those of you last year that went the ride was 180 miles with a few stops along the way.. We were thinking of cutting the milage back so that everyone isnt wore out at the end of the day.. We was thinkig somewhere around 130 miles... What does everyone think of that??
