I've been hearing about this ferry. Where is it? Do I just stay on 125 to get there?

Yeah, if you ride 125 down to Rueter then it meets up with 160 and they are the same road for a couple miles then 125 breaks off and goes south across the ferry and into AR.

What are the criteria for a person to ride with you Saturday. I may want to join if there aren't any objections. What time and where is everyone meeting?
Pay your Dues, 1 Million dollars in non sequential bills, and have it deposted in my 3 overseas accounts.......j/k.;)
Its easy........ Ride your bike to the QT in Ozark on Hwy 65 anywhere from ......about 09:30am-10:30am... or meet them along the way.....Never been yet but this is what I have heard.

Just have fun, and dont ride above your skills.... there isnt anyone that doesnt mind waiting a few mins at the stops... and ask questions... unless its a dumb one.. LOL J/K !!
Having fun is the main idea.. you cant have fun if your crapping your pants at each corner ! :)

I'm expecting to get a new clutch and hub at the Ducati dealer in Columbia today. If it comes in I'll have it picked up and installed by tonight and You could count me in for the Ferry. I've been wanting to get on that thing for a couple of years now, but some how I always seem to miss it.....:confused:

That sounds about right, I go slow so I only crap my pants every other corner :D
Most of us don't care if your fast or slow, it is more important to us that you have fun and are smiling when we stop. And do not be afraid to ask questions, none of us are by anymeans expert riders, but we are more than happy to help out a newer rider so just ask. If you want someone to stay with you on rides and either follow or lead you down let one of us know, I know CNI and JP have really been helping several of us out to make us better/safer riders. I would rather wait longer at the stops or stop more often than to wait for the helo to come and air lift someone out because they felt the need to show someone how fast they think they are.
No matter how fast you think you are, there will ALWAYS be someone faster than you.
Remember, it is NOT a race. If you want to race me, I will be happy to race you, jsut drop the $100 and I will see you at the track.

OK, The plan is to meet at the QT in Ozark 10:00-10:30, Leave by 10:45.
Anyone is welcome to go! I am not a knee dragger, But i like to ride. MOst everyone else is faster and knows the road better than me so i take my time(spirited ride).

That IS kind of an obscene hour...Seriously though, how long does the ride usually take? I may bring a friend. Neither one of us are newbies so we won't be any trouble. Just got to decide if getting up that early is manageable, I'd hate to fall asleep at the handlebar...

About 3-4 hours or so. Depending on how much time we spend BS'ing and lunch ect.

Well, All you Fair weather riders out there, You missed a great ride!Neil(Speed),Kevin And myself rode 125 all the way to the ferry and the weather was better the farther south we got. We ended up taking 125,7,65,86,13,160. You guys missed out! Your loss!!
We logged over 200 miles from the QT back to Springfield. I forgot my camera so no pics.
