    I'm going to go snap he new tag today, planning a ride south of Springfield for 100-200 miles. Mostly just exploring, as I don't know my way around all that well, but hit me up if anyone wants to go. I'll be looking for good dual sport roads, mix of on and off road.

    Crap I just now saw this Marty, I didn't go :( cleaned out the garage for my wife, I wish I had a bike that I could do some more pavement pounding!

    I could have went south also! :)

    Make sure you text me, 417.876.8798

    Sometimes my dumb phone will not pic up the taptalk post or taptalk screws up. :(

    Did you go?

    Looks like I need to trailer my bike south a little!

    I was over near Baxter Springs KS for work last week, and noticed a plethora of small gravel roads.

    Message created by tapping my fingers on a wee little screen.

    My first 2 to 3 times out there peer pressure made me ride hard as I was trying to get back into riding! I had to keep up, I didn't want to be the party pooper! Yes I went over the handle bars and scraped my arms and legs, I said I would never go back! Lol! That was 2 years ago, now it's one of my favorite riding areas!
    It made me a better rock rider and tree skimmer! Lol! Eagle ranch makes you ride smart and teaches you right gearing and tire selection. I hated it at first now I love it! :)
    It's alot like Walter ranch by Cole Camp

    RJ, how long is the ranch open to dirt bikes? I'd be interested in going during a weekday if they are open.

    This may be breakin' the rules...BUT

    I just listed my 2007 KTM 640 Adventure for sale in the Flea Market. If any of you locals have ever wanted one...here's your chance. It's a good deal for a quick sale on a rare bike. Let me know!

    They held the Hillbilly GP race at Eagle Ranch today. It looks like you cook up some pretty good grub for the customers they have Rusty.

    Eagle Ranch stays open to the first weekend in March.

    Jerry said they had almost 400 people come through the gates Sunday!
