Good day all
Just got a call from Ben Bagley with changes to the Voyage Home location. It has been moved to Mena, AR. The campground will be the CMA Campground, Hatfield (just south of Mena about 7 miles). A couple hotels in Mena are listed on the web site. This will make for a shorter ride for those not wanting to ride over 200 miles in a day.
The updated rides will be coming as soon as I get them from Ben. He is still at the campground, but will be getting home later today.
Yall have a great day and see ya at Pie In The Sky in a few hours.
This is NOT GOOD. I do not know why it was moved, but it has added at least 150 miles to my ride distance. Since it was being called the 'Mena Ride' before it became the Voyage Home, I'm wondering why this was not the site from the get-go. It might have made a difference for me (at least I would have been able to plan for it.) This ride was going to be a 'squeaker' for me financially, and the move basically means that I am not going to be able to afford it. I hate to do this, but RR, please remove me from the list of attendees. Hopefully, the HCT will be held in Texas. See you all in the Spring. Ride Safe and have fun.
Sorry to hear you are not coming. From what I understand, there were comments about the rides being too long and some were not going to be able to make the complete distance. Don't know why it changed but it did. Yes, HCT will be in the Hill country next year. We will look for you there.
I may have to cancel also. I was planning to work a half day Thursday before heading to Broken Bow. Now that the location is Mena, that may get me in much later than I would like. Right now, I'm a "maybe".
