Title: Ozark Euro Raid, 28-30 May 2020

Just a reminder for the annual Rally in Ozarks.  It's back at Marble Falls Resort (remodel of the former Hub Motorcycle Resort), on curvy Hwy 7 between Jasper and Harrison Ark.

Probably the best riding roads in the US.  Typically a few WG members there.

It doesn't appear there's a lot of interest here.

Believe me that the roads are great and the rally stuff is definitely OK.  And everyone wins something, gets a tshirt & swag bag, perhaps not a helmet like I won, but still.  I am interested to see what they did to the old place.  And the campfire and cigars never hurt.  The county isn't dry anymore either but still BYOB to be sure.   :boozing: :cool:

Great riding area...doesn't get much better.  Unfortunately I can't get away at that time...but these are fantastic roads to ride!

You can spend a solid two weeks up there riding some absolutely incredible roads. Don't forget to stop in Jasper at the Ozark Cafe for lunch. I have some very good friends up there I've visited many times over the years.

Great place for breakfast too.  Just down the road.

Breakfast is delicious but a gamble. They serve proper American portions and a breakfast that big will put you straight into a gravy coma

There a few other joints to for eats, like Low Gap cafe and the Oark Store.  I rode with a bunch that liked the Pizza joint in Yellville and the Mexican place in Mtn View, can't verify the former but unfortunately I can no longer endorse the later.  And then there are all the modern wonders in Fayetteville, Branson and Springfield metros.  And we all know about the Peel Ferry across Bull Shoals Lake.

Who among you have passed through the community of Calico Rock?

I guess you weren't fishing on the White River?

Actually I was thinking that resort up river in Norfolk would be a nice rally site.
