Well done!!
I can't wait to get down there in May...I'm sure I'll eat another rear tire off my bike....my 109-R goes through rear tires anyway...but "fun" riding in the Ozarks speeds the process up A LOT. |

Glad to hear the ride went well! Sorry about the ticket.
So all the mods to the bike before hand weren't an issue? |

Problem with organized events like this is everyone ioncluding the troopers knew it was happening, the time, the route, everything. The Ozarks are great as long as you don't attract attention. This thing was on like 5 forums, one guy even posted the route on his facebook page. The Troopers knew to trap it and wrote about 25 tickets...

Yeah..they won't be making that mistake next year. Private forum. The ticket will cost me about $150 with no points. I"m not going to complain

My Arkriders forum people and I ran 7,123, 16, 23, 112, all over and never ran into any troopers except in the town of Jasper itself. We saw county occaisionally but we owned it every weekend. Then all of a sudden you couldnt throw a rock without hitting a patrol car...Coincidence?? nah. We have to go underground baby!!

I think they will do that next year. out of 15 riders 8 got tickets and none of us were riding together so it wasn't like some big group bust. Sucked.
