Yup its should be a good ride. If the rain stays away it will be even better. Temps are suppose to be in the 60's, so its makes for a leather riding weather day thats for sure. Probably will do it on that sunday, cause I have a feeling that they may make me work saturday, but if the weather gods are smiling on the saturday, I'm gonna blow off work and make the ride saturday

The ride will consist of taking the backroads over to Cherry Valley, Arkansas, then heading north on the parkway through Jonesboro to Paragould, Arkansas.
