This rally originally started on a now defunct BMW K Bike Sport Touring forum & will be our 15th year for the Arkansas Hillbilly Rally. Our digs will be the posh & opulent Gordon Motel in Jasper, AR and while it's not the Taj Mahal, it's clean, inexpensive & we're always given the royal treatment and for Jasper, that's saying something! There are no large organized group rides as everyone typically does their own thing in small-ish groups. A typical day consists of a lunchtime ride destination with breakfast & dinner at the Ozark Café across the street or the Blue Mountain Café up the street. Evenings are usually spent around the fire pit in the parking lot where tales are told & juvenile behavior is on full display.

Hopefully, the weather gods will smile on us this year & we’ll have great autumn weather with warm days, cool nights & beautiful fall colors all around us. Just bring your party hat and a generous party 'tude', along with a low threshold of self-discipline, plus a high tolerance for cheap motel accommodations and you'll fit right in! And not that it needs to be said, but should you choose to attend the rally, please be aware that any display of mature, adult behavior in any shape, manner or form is frowned upon and will not be tolerated. It's worth mentioning, Jasper's in a dry county so bring your own hooch or get it in Harrison, 20 miles north of Jasper.

The ancient Chinese philosopher Lao Tse once said, "Attending the AHR is like pissing in a white suit... it feels good & it shows". So start making plans to join in the fun and make your way to the beautiful Ozark Mtns. in NW Arkansas and hillbilly riding nirvana. Outstanding roads abound within minutes of downtown Jasper in every direction.

Guaranteed great riding during the day, uplifting frolic and cavortment at night.

Interesting. This ends a day before the 2020 TWT Arkansas Ride starts.

I guess I real go getter could attend both.
