NE Texas...any Guzzista out there?
« on: February 06, 2016, 10:47:20 AM »
Down here in the Texarkana area on a work assignment for awhile. Any others around here that share similar interests in our favorite Italian bikes? My bike is still at home but going back to get it soon. Just checking to see if anyone knows of gathering or rides in this area.

Lindale is the seat of the Texas Guzzi Kingdom.

Look up Texas Turnip on this board.  He can supply everything Guzzi in Texas and the rest of the USA.

Blacktruck,
I'll give you a Readers Digest condensed version of 50 years of riding.
Go to the AR tourist bureau north on 71 or E on 30. Pick up a phamplet on motorcycle roads in AR. Mt. Nebo and Queen Wilhelmenia should top you list. Any oad that is north of I-30 in AR is good.
For Texas you have the 3 states marker where you can put your foot or ask on 3 states. Jefferson and Uncertain will place in the top three for the area.
OK Hwy 259 to 144 thru Honobia to Talihina will surprise you. Talimena Skyline drive is a must.
LA Driskill MTn at 535' or any road north of I-20. Various towns that "honor" Bonnie and Clyde.

There are hundreds more things to see and (I'm going to get my wimpy 165 lbs beat for saying this) but AR beats COL as the traffic is less and you can eat for half the price.

I'm busy getting a crop in. Will give you a shout in a week or so.

Busy harvesting all those worn out bikes in the barn and shed. Hell line them up in the front yard and you would have your own Rally.  :grin:

Maybe see you somewhere this year.
