Arkansas Ride 4/26/12




















 










 














 All that riding and we finally arrived at the resort we were meeting family at. We were a bit early so Jess and I went for a little hike but shortly the family arrived and the fun continued!


























These were three of the local dining options that we frequented while we were out on our journey! I highly recommend Hubba Bubba Subz!!!! They were by the far the friendliest restaurant that I have ever been too and the food was wonderful! They were local dining striving to be the best that it can be and it was a wonderful experience to dine with them! Stringbeanz was delicious as well. Country time was a buffet and although good eating not my favorite place. The people were nice but nothing like the experiences that I had at the other two places. The one time that we went "chain" in Arkansas we were very disappointed. The KFC in Harrison Arkansas was the worst dining experience I have ever had. That place needs to be shut down, it was awful!!!













 If my wife asks, you never saw this photo :P

Hopefully I manage not to break anything...

Well, I am trying my hand at mountain biking again this evening. It has been a long time since I gave it a try. My brother and I are headed out to Shawnee Mission Park to try the mountain bike trails. I wish I found my helmet though. I still need one and hopefully I don't regret that later on. Pictures and videos to come soon, I hope. With my very own Go Pro I am picking up later today. I am tired of having no record of my adventures except photos from convenient stopping points.

Saturday Group Ride-4/21/12

A total of seven bikes showed up this morning despite the cold weather start to the day. It was a nice ride. A little pavement, bit of gravel, and a touch of dirt. I think everyone would agree that the route needed more dirt but there just isn't much to be had unfortunately, at least nearby. We had multiple creek crossings and a nice lunch at the Mighty Mo (formerly Flyers) in Atchison. It warmed up nicely later in the day and I think that the main complaint from the group seemed to be the dusty nature of our gravel sections. The day ended after a nice curvy Highway 5 run and the group split up. I'd like to thank all of the guys that came out. I hope y'all had as much fun riding as I did putting the whole thing together. In the coming days we will have some photos up from the ride. I need my brother to get them off of his go pro for me first though.














  There was mud...not much though
