CANCELLED !! "Nowhere to be and ALL day to get there" ride, November 8-10

[Al Goodwin]

Our wonderful co-host, Melony Goodwin, will be having an extensive back surgery the Monday prior to this event, we just received the call Thursday of the date.  The recovery from this surgery will be long and difficult.  I'm sorry for any inconvenience, y'all keep an eye open for a possible replacement ride/event before the end of the year.

Y'all keep Melony in your prayers ....we'll update everyone on her progress.

Once again...I apologize for the late notice cancellation.



.It's that time of year again....the time of year where it may rain, thunderstorm, be 35 degrees, or be 90 degrees.....regardless of all that, we'll be riding.

Plenty of camping space.  We'll cookout Friday and Saturday night.  Breakfast will be served Saturday morning, so no need to worry about that.

The pool will be open, but it'll be DAMN COLD by then.

I had to cancel his ride last year due to unexpected work schedule change, this year it's ON !!!!

I haven't decided on the route yet, there's good riding in southern middle Tennessee, but there's also some riding in Bankhead that we don't hit on your Free State rides.

I'm open to suggestions.

I have Vacation approved for that Friday. This is going to be fun.

What type of ride is this? Street, ADV, Dualsport??? Difficulty level?

It's a "big bike friendly" dual sport ride.  Dirt roads, possibly a sketchy bridge or 2...nothing technical.  My wife and I rode it 2-up. input Tenere.  There may be some optional more difficult options.

nice ! on the calendar !

[Al Goodwin]

I need to go and make sure it's passable, if so...this bridge will be on the route.

[2372ighost]

On my calendar.

[klaviator]

I'm planning on coming.  If I don't have a dual sport bike by then I'll lead a street ride.

[TWJohn]

I am sorry to hear this. I hope Melony makes a speedy recovery. Surgery is never any fun...

[Chitza]

Sorry to hear this, Alan. Please let me know if you guys need anything.

[renchinrider]

Prayers for Melony!  Hope both surgery and recovery are successful, and speedy!  You take care too, Al!  Let us know if you need anything...We're just a phone call/email away!

[David DoubleEX]

Hope the surgery goes well!

All, we could still get together and do something if you already had that weekend sectioned off for riding. I know some more local trails east of Huntsville or we could get together in bankhead or something? Thoughts? If there is interest, I can start a new post on it.
