I'll be watching and trying to work this one into my schedule. I've been itching to get down there and was lured away from SFO by the Ohio Ramble.

Had a little set back last sunday and will have to see how things heal up. I crashed the FZ1 Sunday following behind a buddy on a street glide and my two sons. WTF? To the best of my recolection I washed out the front end trailbraking into a corner. OUCH!

Well, after getting a little time here...I got on to the phone with Eric at the Best Western (Hillside Inn) in Clinton, AR. He has secured a group rate of 67.99 for those that CALL at the hotel and mention Eric's name and the group code of FJR1300.
Contact info:
Best Western (Hillside Inn)
1025 Highway 65 B US Clinton, Arkansas, 72031, United States
Phone: 501/745-4700
I have not saved a block of rooms....just call up now and get what you can...first come first serve. I'm booked...see you there.
If you can get a better price online...go for it...but this is all I'm doing regarding a group rate.
Remember, the group is staying here on Friday and Saturday nights...checking out on Sunday. (Checking in October 5...checking out October 7.)
One last reminder: We are meeting in Hooterville (Farmington, MO) on Thursday. I'm staying in the Super 8...make your own arrangements (no group rate there). I plan to eat at the Catfish Kettle Thursday evening about 6 or 7pm or so. We will ride down to Clinton, AR starting Friday morning...getting there towards evening.
Back in 2009, when I rode fjrider's TwistyButt route out of this same Best Western, there was a great mexican restaurant in town. Hope it's still there. :clapping:
EDIT: La Rosita Mexican Restaurant 244 Highway 65 N Ste 3, Clinton, AR
(501) 745-8120
If the restaurant is still in business, I'm definitely eating there. :yahoo:

Another reminder...as with many places in the south, I believe this is a dry county. So I will be stopping at the MO/AR state line to purchase a little beer at a gas station/convenience store in Thayer, MO.
It might get shaken/stirred up on the twisty routes on the way down.
So be it. :yahoo:
