#42583 2005Roadstar (User) Proper Prior Planning Prevents PissPoorPerformance Expert Boarder Posts: 562 Bikes, Blues & BBQ 4 Years, 8 Months ago   Anybody planning on going to Fayetteville, AR for the ralley? Just curious.... It starts on Thurs., Oct 4th and runs thru Sun.,Oct 7th. So far it looks like there'll be a group of about 7-10 of us heading down from the St. Charles/St. Louis area. A couple of us are planning to leave on Wed. evening, camp that night and take the scenic route thru Mo. and northern Arkansas, while the rest will be leaving at 5am Thurs. and running down the interstate (I-44). Booorrring!! Should be a good time though! Don't know how true it is, but I've heard they are expecting the attendance to surpass Sturgis. Thats crazy!!! I was down there a few years ago and from what I've heard, it's definitely outgrown Dickson St. and the surrounding area.

But I recieved a email through a group I ride with that the cops in Fayettevile are not going to allow any colors or pets at the rally and are going to crack down on "excessive noise", which I gather means rapping your pipes in traffic. Yes its getting bigger , So be careful and enjoy!!!

Not to worry about colors or pets, but will keep the pipes at a respectable level. I know a few years ago when I was there the cops definitely made their presence known just by the shear number of them. But at the same time they seemed to be pretty cool about the whole thing; didn't see or hear about anyone getting "hassled by the man". Thanks again and ride safe!

Answered the other thread too. Yep, we're leaving on Wed and will spend the whole weekend there. Probably ride down to Ozark one day and check out a rally happening there. I don't remember the cops hasseling too many when I was there a couple of years ago. I have heard it's getting stricter though. Just be smart and don't get on it in town and it will be a ticketless weekend. You have a nice ride coming from St. Louis. My folks live in Springfield so we're over there or down in Branson all the time. Nice riding country. Have a blast at the rally. I'll look for ya but between you and me and the other 100,000 bald dudes there....you might get lost in the crowd. ....greeny   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #43302 okcbum (User) Fresh Boarder Posts: 5 Re:Bikes, Blues & BBQ 4 Years, 8 Months ago   Hello Just wanted to say we're headed that way too!!! We have a group of about 4-5 heading out of OKC on Friday morning and another group of 3 or so heading out on Friday afternoon. Looks like it will be a fun ride. Heading north to Tulsa and taking scenic 412 into Fayetteville. Would love to see some of you guys there!!! Going to have to shut it down on Saturday around 2:30 to watch my Sooners run up and down the field on Texas!!!! Game doesnt mean quite as much since they both screwed the pooch this weekend..but will have a beer in hand and watching none the less!!!! Cant wait to get there!!! I ve heard it is one of the best rallys all year.   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #43508 Stach (User) Fresh Boarder Posts: 14 Re:Bikes, Blues & BBQ 4 Years, 7 Months ago   If it turns out to be bigger than Sturgis it will be a real monster. I was at Sturgis in 03 and the estimate was 800,000 over the course of the week. I hear estimates for BBB are around 300,000. Still a lot when you consider it is only a 4 day event.   Logged     It takes a mighty big dog to weigh a ton.   The administrator has disabled public write access. #43573 rockman (User) Fresh Boarder Posts: 73 Re:Bikes, Blues & BBQ 4 Years, 7 Months ago   A buddy and I are leaving on Friday afternoon. We are staying in Siloam Springs at my dad's house. Maybe we will see some of you at the Yamaha tent, or drinking, or playing, or whatever....   Logged     \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'07 Roadstar - Silver with Grey ghost flames. url=http://www.wunderground.com/US/MN/Hopkins.html?bannertypeclick=gizmotimetempbig] [/url]   The administrator has disabled public write access.
