Title: Arkansas (Mena) October 9-12: Houston Group Meetup in Willis
Post by: Rocket67 on September 24, 2014, 06:31:12 AM
***EDIT***

To keep with the subject line here are the details:

Meet at Waterburger by 1097 and I-45
Kick Stands up at 8:00AM so get there early enough to grab a bite or fuel up


There are 2 gas stations in close proximity


So far this is who I believe will be meeting there:

Me
David
Paul
Chris
and maybe Gubmo

And if you are late that is fine, we will wait.   :thumbup:

I think the plan was to meet at 8AM in Willis and we were expecting about an 8 or 9 hour ride which would put us in Mena around 5:00PM.  I do expect that there could be delays though. 

I vote KSU at 8 AM - Meet @ Sonic in Willis.   I will be there a little early and grab a bite to eat there.

Not sure about where I will be riding from. Might spend the night at my son's house and leave out of Dallas ???

I think that 8:00 should be good.  I am not real big on Sonic for breakfast.  Much prefer a Whataburger breakfast but I can also eat before I head in that direction.  What are the gas stations at that intersection?

Waterburger is fine with me as well.  I think Chris will probably be coming by my house on the way (not 100% on that) so we should be going to the same place anyway.  I think there is a Valero and a Shell right there by WB.  I will fill up before I leave so don't need a gas station stop before heading to Paris.

I'm 1 hr away from Willis.  I make no promises but I will try to be there a little bit before 8 a.m. If i'm not there by 8, I'll see you guys along the road or in Paris for lunch with everyone else.

Paul, I am only a little closer than you are.  We should all ride together and leave when we all get there.

I'm pretty sure I'll be there, but just in case I hangout a little later the night before.  I don't mind playing catch up and I'm pretty good at it too.

sounds good.  see you there.  Be safe.  Are you going to the M&G tomorrow?  I am trying to make it.  I have a conference at the GRB this week and will have to figure out how to ride in a suit and tie downtown and then change to come out.

There is nothing that says you need to ride to a M&G.  We will give you AppleSauce :t but be happy to see you anyway. :c
