There are some very scenic motorcycle roads and then there are some righteous switchbacks - for the adventurers.






The historic 1890 Oark Cafe




Highway 7, just north of Russellville.






And more.

All within an hours' ride.

Air up those tires and pack your gear.

Have most of you made it home? Great event and some amazing riding. We did the closing ceremonies, gave out some awards and had steak dinners. I just really had fun and come to find out, as rally host, I’m not suppose to. O well we’ll try again next year. Looking at going to Jasper for 2027. Also looking like we may just make it a joint effort between La and Ar. Stay tuned

Thanks John for a great rally. I had a good time and a great ride back home to Pittsburg KS

[kballowe]

Good job, John.  Nice place.  Perfect weather !

[travelingbyguzzi]

Yes, had a good time. Can't find a better group of people.

[kballowe]

I think it was an excellent 1st year effort.  15 Moto Guzzi is what we counted.

Here's just a few pics

Is Hankins Country Store open again?  (Red Oak Station in the pic)  It was closed for years the last time I was out that way.

Yes.  They even added a gas pump.

A bit off topic but curious how long your riding season is in this area.  We are winding down here in northern Saskatchewan and 6 months till we hit the road again.  Always looking for a different winter destination
