I'll be able to commit to either one here in a day or two. Just need to discuss with my better half.

9/19 does not work for me, but don't let that be a show-stopper.

The 19th would work for me

The 12th does not

I believe this is what you call a conundrum. Which Wolfe brother gets the nod? For what it's worth, neither date works for me unless the meetup is in Arkansas.

I hope I can make this wherever whenever it is!

I think I can make either date. I'd recommend Perry or Carbondale.

I'm leaning towards Perry on Saturday 9/12/15. Then if the weather is junk we could postpone to 19th. I would like to check out Perry, and it would be closer to most of you guys.
Planning to bring the family along and the kids' bikes. I'm guessing there is plenty of terrain for them to ride.

Perry is pretty technical riding. I took the wife out there last year on her Drz400, the bike was a little tall for her, and she only rode for about 20 min. Was too hard, wrong size bike.. Am sure others can chime in, not sure how good the kids are, but most of it is really tough.

There is a small little track for 85cc or something and less, but it's not very big area. Oakland, has more moderate terrain and am thinking that might be better for the kids.

Someone correct me if am wrong here

I've never been to Oakland either. But I've heard it smells like poo and your stuff might not be there when you get back.

Dumb idea? but how about Chadwick. I have been itching to go back there for years as I have not had a Chadwick worthy bike for sometime. What is it, 4.5 hours. Talking hotel in Ozark? I always stayed at the Days in, pretty clean and reasonable. Just a thought.

I have only been to Perry once and don't have a warm fuzzy (don't read anything into that please) memory of it but that doesn't mean I wouldn't go.

Heck I don't even know if I will be ready to go anywhere.

No thanks. I'm staying in KS

It was just a suggestion, sorry!

I read that too.. But my experience didn't notice any smell and cleaning the bike was no different than any other time.

Off with his head!

Chadwick is on my list as well. Let me know when you want to head back, never been there myself and am down for an overnight trip. Specially if we can buddie up and split the fuel and hotel provided you don't have any really disgusting habits.

OK made me laugh!
Not too disgusting!
Maybe safer for both with single rooms but I can be coaxed.
Driving definately!
Let's keep this idea going cause i would love to do that.
I think I can be ready in a couple three weeks.

I'd vote Chadwick vs Perry or Carbondale, but it's too far for our westward friends. I'm up for a Chadwick trip though...at least in about 30 days I will be.

That timing might work for me.

I might be up for that...

BTW
I drove my 990 down to Table Rock this weekend and at 5pm on friday I swung through Chadwick on the way down and the place was empty. I was surprised since this weekend is nice. Little warm during the hot part of the day but I am sure fine in the shade of the trails and moving on the bike.
