I was hoping that was later on this fall!

Here is another 400-1000cc adv ride. The PHBR 2016 run by Rolla (Bixby) on the 17th..

The MRTA? group runs this and you get access to the 600 acres of woods there onsite. Camping. $10. The tracks from previous years are really good for the area. Even if you don't go, I would get those and ride them again just for fun.

The ride was good. I got to meet and ride with Greg from Emporia. The weather and roads were perfect! Wet and tacky, no dust. Afterwards we grilled dogs, chicken breasts, German sausage, had some drinks and sat around the camp fire. Awesome atmosphere.

Sorry I don't have any tracks. There were some decent roads West of Kahola lake. I had other good roads I wanted to ride but we didn't get to them for obvious reasons.
Ahhh, pre-mix!!
