Hello,
Sorry for the delay, I've been in Texas with an ill father. But I will be getting back tonight or NLT tommorrow night with final plans. For now, sent XPECHON some final suggestions.
1. Everybody try to meet at 7:30am to 8am in Lebanon, MO at Shoney's for breakfast. 1015 S. Jefferson ST, Lebanon, MO. (Only 2 places with good breakfast in town.... they may be crowded)
2. Optional, meet us at 9am at the Registration/Start POint, Lebanon Harley Davidson.
Those coming down Friday night.... we think that staying in Lake of the Ozarks area Saturday night will be the final stop that day. It's about 35 miles to Lebanon from middle of Osage Beach at Lake of Ozarks area. A 45 minute ride that morning from your hotel to Leabanon Saturday to start the rally won't be too bad.
I suggest that we stay in the 5700 to 6400 block of US Hwy 54 in Osage Beach area at the Lake of the Ozarks, lots of hotels in this 1.5 mile stretch ( think of Branson, alittle less crowded, but lots of traffic, and eats, and resort things along this stretch) The major hotels in this stretch are Super 8, Econo Lodge, Comfort Inn, Rodeway Inn.
After the USO ride we will leave for a ride back to Lake of the Ozarks.... plan on stopping for light lunch as suggested before... then ride one of 2-3 routes to the Lake area.... Options, we can vote on one or decide later: Bennett Spring Park, Ha Ha Tonka State Park, or the Lake Ozark Dam Area . Then check-in later, and dinner.
Plan on farewell breakfast somewhere next morning .... 9am??
More formal plans, contacts, coming. For now... contact me at
[email protected].... I work still, so after 5pm most weekdays. or my cell phone is 816-810-3441.....
Looking forward to a great time......
