Marco,

The Eureka QT is at I-44 and MO 109...

From St Charles at the intersection of MO 94 and US 40 / US 61 it is probably best to do this:

East on US 40 / US 61
Right onto Chesterfield Airport Rd
Right onto Olive Street Rd (I think this is your first opportunity to turn right...There is a gas station at this wedge intersection)
Straight onto Eatherton Rd
Straight onto MO 109

When you get to I-44 go under the interstate and you will see the QT on the south side...

Distance from 40 and 94 is 18.7 s'miles...

If you live closer to I-70 in St Chuck it will be easier to go in to 270 and south and then west on I-44 to the first Eureka exit...Distance from 94 and I-70 is 30.5 s'miles...

Please try to get to the QT around 0830 to get fueled up, coffee'd up, etc...

I look forward to meeting you...

Bob

Oooh, ahhh, pretty, Mt. Lemon?

No the bags are not on yet. This is what I have to do tonight:

Cords


I'm hoping this weekend I'll make some sparks.

Thats a pic while riding up Mt Graham, just south of Safford Az.
Keep us posted on how the "T" conversion goes. Have you raised the bars and lowered the pegs?

Here is one of the "Devils Highway" in Az. I rode 80 miles of this road before I saw another person there.

John:

I have convertabars that in their current configuration give me about 3" back and 1.5-2" taller. If I extend the clutch side control harness I could get 2-3" more in each direction. The "s" pegs are already installed.

Hey Pep,

Are you heading out to Eureka tomorrow?

If so do you want to meet up at the commuter lot at 40 and 94 and ride up to Racerboys stop?

I`m thinking 7:40 to 7:45 to make sure we are on time.

Yea, for some reason I thought I could get one more weekend out of it but only ended up getting about 100 miles before the cords showed up and spoiled the ride.

Did everyone else make it ok?

For me the ride was too short. (my own fault)

Usually I go to Springfield Ill for the races on Memorial day weekend. This year I`m staying local. No plans other than putting at least 300 - 400 miles on a new tire. (if it shows up on time)

Hey guys I know someone a while back said they took highway 70 up to a highway which went north crossed the ferry and came back up through St Louis. I have been trying to research the exact route but cant find it, anyone have any insight? Or better yet looking to head out tomorrow morning?

Pepp, I`m leaving around 4:30 this afternoon and also heading out Sat Sun and maybe Mon. I`m e-mailing you my cell #. Call or text me if you want to meet up.

I have a new tire to wear out!

Marco,

The ferry you're probably looking for is the Winfield ferry over the Mississippippi...Find Winfield north on MO 79 to locate that one...West on I-70, N on MO 79...Then you can take the Brussels ferry to get across the Illinois river onto the Great River Road...Both of these are currently running but the Golden Eagle ferry across the Mississippippi is not operating due to the high water...

Hope this helps,

Bob

I needed to move them down my legs, (see the angle now? They touch the lowest corner first) but yes after they fixed my body position the pucks worked fine ; )

I did have 4 instructors at Superbike School and all the guys at Total Control tell me to buy leathers

I'm going to be running around (Herman? Bixby?) on Monday if anyone is out and about. I need to be at Gateway at 4 to try to get my ECM updated again.

Josh,

As of Saturday, the 14th, there was still a little gravel between the wheel tracks. A little rain could still help.

john:

My S2 went 4 years ago to Dave across the river by Josh. Don't know what happen to it with him. All I know is the 2nd time he rode it, showing us the way out, he was pulling wheelies all the time. Hey it's his, he paid for it.

I'm heading to Home Coming on Wednesday. Is there anyone else headed up to Home Coming?
