Didn't do this one in the Hijet but you may enjoy anyway... I think if my truck had a little more power and a TN LSV permit I could let the girls drive it as a chase vehicle.

Thats awesome Bob! Right there at the cotton mill is about 5 miles from the farm. Did you see Twin Falls on the other end of the river? Its pretty impressive. Def need to try to get the LSV.

Greg, I had intentions of sending you a message that we were going to be in the area, just never got to it. Might be back down in a couple weeks to ride a couple more days out from where we left off. May need a place to leave the truck and trailer...

Only saw the falls by the mill.

We did have the bad luck to go thru Bell Buckle craft fair hell.

Just south of Columbia is where we get back on the trail. I'll stay in touch.

This is where we quit.

Dynobob,
I wanna go.
Brother and I did a 3 day 750 mile trip last Oct. We were east of Fayetville, AR. No dirt, all hard top. I'd much rather be on a dual sport. We saw some beautiful country and rode with some fine folks from AR.
Where exactly do you get on and off the run you made?

Trax, So far we rode from Jellico, TN to Columbia, TN. Our next trip we will go from Columbia to the TN/MS line in one day and across MS to the AR border the second day. You can cover about 200 miles a day on the trail. You would then need about 2 days to cross AR and 3 days to cross OK.
