A REMINDER!

If you want to enjoy some old fasioned small town fun than come along with us on the ride to Fordyce on the Cotton Belt this Saturday April 24^th . We will meet at Landers HarleyDavidson in Hot Springs and leave at 8AM. It is an easy ride to Fordyce where the motorcycles have the honor and the fun of leading a small town AllAmerican Parade where the entire county is lining the road and sidewalks. They have great bands and marching units as well as every kind of vehicle you can imagine in this parade! Ever seen a squadron of riding lawnmowers in formation? Come to Fordyce! It really is America at it’s best.

If you do not know it by know the Cannon Ball Run will be going though Arkansas and spending their only day of rest here in Hot Springs. Sept 1618 The Course Master John Claussen told Mike that their will approx. 150 people with the run counting support people. This is a great opportunity for Hot Springs and Arkansas to step up and and show our stuff and as most of you know ,I feel we are the best kept secret in America. There will be Press people and Magazine editors as well as magazine and paper journalists who, we hope, will get a great impression of Arkansas and Hot Springs and will want to come back and write about us. John Hollansworth, who is a club member, said that one of these runs is like a traveling circus there is so much excitement around it. There already has been a nice article about Hot Springs in the Cannon Ball website. Steve Arrison at the Convention and Visitors Bureau has done an outstanding job getting the facilities ready for them when they hit town. I cannot say enough good things about the way he has handled this event. Really first class!

I am talking to several hotels here about a week booking deal that would include the Open Rally and the Cannonball. Will let you know what takes place. Ed

Thumbs up to Landers Harley Davidson in Hot Springs for opening their shop during the Cannon Ball at no charge for any entrant to work on his bike!
