Just checked the weather and it looks cool on the 9-10.
For the record I did post last the dates of 9-19 Cool

Ok, one more try then, 16-17. Not Super Bowl weekend and maybe good temps will
Get a good turnout.  popcorn

It'll be the 16th before you know it. We're already a week closer to it than we were when this thread started. cheeky

That looks like a good cruising route for sure. I've been scouting curvy ones S of Tyler to avoid  Police and am about to ride to L Palestine through Poyner and South to Palestine.
I figured about 200mi as was suggested may be good.

I'll post back later regarding today's foray.  Dolph

Thanks for input Dax!

Okee dokee. I put in 100miles and about 15 were slabbing. Found another batch of nice roads
N and S of Poyner and around S L. Palestine.   Saw about 20 cruisers and one rice burner having a good time.
Mostly no shoulders but good pavement, hills, pines and little cages.  Dolph

Next ill add up the miles and such.   coffee

I did a search for rates on the three new hotels here but got some conflicting info. I'll go in person mañana to verify. Hotwire listed one for 49.00 and ill try to see which one that is.

I mapped out a route for 140 miles.  I'm trying to get my google map to link here.  popcorn

Lodging: Holiday Inn Express (newest), La Quinta, Comfort Inn, and Best Western are all fairly new and decent. Hotwire gave a rate of 49.00 which is one of these four (they don't tell which one until its paid for).  All are on US 69 in town. Beware of the one (Americas Value...)  on US 79: old and badly managed.
