If a friend of mine wants to go but won't know about work until the last minute is it alright if he registers last minute in person or something like that?

There are multiple hotels of various price ranges in Clarksville. I don't know all the names but a quick google search will get you started.

And Russellville and Ozark are within a 20 min drive. Both have several old time mom/pop type motels, usually very clean and hospitable. Another good reason to love AR.

Re: Beyond Epic 5 - Ozark Rally, Aug 31 - Sep 3, 2012

Hey Rich I just got back from motogp in Indy and forgot to register before i left. Any chance i can still register and get a t. It would be a shame to have attended all of the epic O's and not get a shirt to one. Also i'm bringing Norberto and Glenn with.

Hi, AJ.

Sure. I ordered a few extra t-shirts and am allocating them to riders who register late, on a first come first served basis. I will add all 3 of you to the attendance list. Please let me know what t-shirt sizes you 3 need when you send in your registration.

Re: Beyond Epic 5 - Ozark Rally, Aug 31 - Sep 3, 2012

It is looking like Tropical Storm Isaac is going to enter the Gulf of Mexico on Monday and forecasters are expecting it will become a hurricane at that point.

It is too early to really forecast where Isaac will make landfall but early models suggest it could be near the AL-MS border on Wednesday. If so, it is possible it could bring lots of rain to AR just about the time we start the rally.

I will be monitoring its progress and will post any hurricane-induced changes to the rally schedule.

Yep, might help me decide which bike to bring. Some wet and I'm bring the BMW. Too wet and I'm bringing a raft.

If we all line up and blow towards the east we can push thing thing away. No hurricane can match the hot air on TWT!
