View Full Version : Bikes, Blues and BBQ-- Fayetville Late September
Allright all you Arky X-ers...It's that time again. Bikes Blues and BBQ in fayetville. Last year I actually stayed in Eureka Springs and biked over each day for festivities. Eureka Springs is damn cool little hangout.. They were also having to Corvette gathering and the Kawasaki get ralley there so if you had the desire to ride the new Kawa2000, you can test ride it...You can check out the festival at bikesbluesandbbq.org/...Thought it might be a good opportunity for the Arkansas X riders to all get together..It's an all bike type event and I saw lots of Hondas there last year..We could pick a day and all meet up somewhere and at least have some lunch or dinner or whatever...Also, the pig trail is right there. Any ideas on this subject???? Let's here some feedback. We also might have a guest from the California X-riders there with us! K-dog

I'm in but whos the California Xer??????? Later, B.P.
It's Mike Berzerin.. Little Mickey...I figure if we can get a group together, we'd probably have a good portion on the Oklahoma X-riders too. With a little luck I will soon me working Mon-Fri with sat-sun off. (fingers crossed, as well as toes). So--I will be very interested in all these weekend rides I been missin....yeaaaaaah baby! k-dog

I was thinking we all meet in a town outside of Fayeteville (Like Rogers :-)) and then we can all ride in together, get parking as a group..
How would you guys feel about maybe meeting at a Dennys or something similar??

Hey K-dog and Big Pappa, if you guys are leaving Saturday morning let me know and the little lady and I will meet up with you for the ride up. Just let me know when and where.
Thats a great idea bro, even the guys/gals that are already there could ride out to the Dennys and ride in with us...Thats a great idea! I'm still planning on leaving Hot Springs Saturday morning...Fayetville is like what? 30 minutes from Hot Springs right? :D :shock: :lol: K-dog

If you are coming in on 412, when you get to I-540 in Springdale, you turn north (the opposite direction of Fayetteville) go about 20 minutes to either exit 84 or 85.. You will know it when you see it.. Its off to the west..
That Dennys is just a suggestion.. For some of the guys riding in from the South, that will add another hour to their ride to B,B,BBQ..
If someone wants to meet further south, Perhaps at the Cracker Barrell at 412 and 540, let me know..
Almost everyone is probably coming from the South..I seem to remember a Dennys right there at the Univ of Arkansas exit..Can't remember the name of the road but it's just a couple of miles from Dickson St. How about that one???? :roll: k-dog

Jen is a U of A Student.. She probably knows that one..
I'll ask her.. That sounds like a much better plan then having you guys ride all the way to Rogers, just to turn around and ride back to fayetteville..
What time are you guys thinking?
Around 10 or 11 on Saturday? Or what?

Hey all riders from the south. As your coming into Fayettville headed north on 540, Take the Farmington / Hwy 62 Exit. Turn left and go back under 540 and Dennys is right there about 100 yards on the left . If you have ever gone to a Razorback game, it's the same exit. You just turn left instead of turning right toward the U of A. Mapquest says it's exit 62.

Now what time???

This is just my suggestion to get things kind of kicked off. If anyone has any other ideas please put it out there.
If the X'ers from the south are leaving Mena at 10AM they should roll into Fayettville at about 1:00. It's about 140 miles. I suggest us locals meet them there at 1. If anyone in the Bella Vista / Bentonville area wants to meet and ride down there in a group, propose a place and time and I will be there.
I have attached the link for the BB&BBQ Schedule of events. You can also pre-order shirts from the main site which I thought was pretty cool.

Not really planning a meeting site within the rally that I am aware of..
If you get there before 1, you can always come join us at Dennys and ride back in with us..
Even if you are doing something on Dickson Street, ya'll can still ride over to Dennys at 1:00...It's only a 10-15 minute ride from the rally at the most. I think it would be really cool to see a nice bunch of X's parading down Dickson St. See ya'll there....K-dog
