I will call Ozark Inn and have 10 rooms set aside for us, I will also be posting the route there at a later time. Hope we can get a good group going.

We had thoughts of heading to the Hill Country, but this will be a nice ride as well. We'll see if we're up for it, not sure just yet! I'll go ahead and reserve a room to be sure we get one!

The hotel is pretty full - might need to reserve fast. We took a room - should be a fun weekend!

Any chance you could export the route to a map or photo? I don't have a Garmin.... I do have a GoPro, looking forward to some good film this trip!

Looks like a great Ride, count me in. I imported the routes to my Garmin Basecamp did not know that GDP routes will import into Basecamp but they do.

My only questions about the route is does it take the toll road in Hugo or go threw the town. I normally avoid the toll road. Also where are we having lunch. Looks like Pams Diner in Talihina but not sure. Thats where most of the Bikers stop.

Tom Bell

We always stopped at Pam's every time I have gone. It's good.
And the steak place in Mena for supper...usually good. Breakfast in downtown Sunday. They're all good :)
I don't want no toll roads either!

Oct 23, 2018, 8:37 PM

Carlos Lopez

Breakfast restaurant only take cash dinero, so bring some cash. And no we ain’t taking the toll road in Oklahoma. We will go thru town.

Looks like a great route, I havnt taken 2 from Antlers to Talihina yet. New route for me. I have the route in Basecamp GPX file and polished it up a bit starting from the start point and ending at the Hotel. If anyone wants it, Message me.
