Well, judging by the bikes out on the interstate already (Tuesday), I'm thinking that there should be a pretty good turnout this year.

Leaving on the 24th. This will be my 3rd year. Waited too late to get a room and have to stay in Alma this year. Love all of the riding up in NWA. FYI: The Pig Trail (HW23) is closed this year due to a wash out in the spring.

I'm just a couple hours away and will be down early Saturday. For those who have been before any suggestions? I planned on going to Dickenson street early and then hitting the fair grounds before heading back Saturday late afternoon.

The Arvest ball park has a set up. Antique bikes, some vendors. It was better than the fair grounds last year. The fair grounds were mostly food last year. Or maybe the year before. Anyway, I went to the razorback ball park (south of Dickson on 15th st) this evening. Vendors were still mostly setting up. I bought a jacket to replace my old one WHICH F'ING WORE OUT AFTER ONLY 30 YEARS OF ABUSE.

According to the radio, there's camping at the fair grounds this year. They may have more stuff going on than the last time I went there.

I have wanted to go to this for a few years now. Alas, always a weekend I just cannot get away. Maybe I will just put it on the calendar for next year once the dates are announced. Have fun!
