All,
It is time again for the annual Talimena 1 Run, on May 15, 16, and 17th. Come join us for a spirited drive from Talihina Oklahoma to Mena Arkansas along Highway 1 that runs the top of the Winding stair mountains. Friday we arrive and sit at the hotel and socialize. Saturday we get up and drive to Mena along Highway 1. This is a "spirited" drive (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving-girl.gif) with frequent stops for pictures and whatever. Then we eat lunch in Mena, turn around and drive back to Talihina. In the evening the owner of the Kiamichi Inn allows us to push the cars back and have a cookout (IMG:style_emoticons/default/chowtime.gif) in the parking lot, with lots of adult beverages. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/drunk.gif) Then we don't have to drive anywhere, we can just walk (or stumble as the case may be ) to the rooms to sleep. Sunday we get up and drive home. No pressure, no awards, no nothing... just a fun drive and a cookout with friends. Anyone is welcome, even "Water Pumpers".... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/poke.gif) For room reservations, call the Kiamichi Inn (504 Dallas St. Talihina, Ok, 74571) at 918-567-2243. VERY important, tell "Kitty" or Carmin you're with the 914 group. Oh.. rooms 11 (Joseph Mills) and 14 (Betty and I) are already reserved. I hope a lot of you who have never been there show up.... |

Just a shameless bump. After looking at thread from previous run ole Hot Shoe needs to tell of his off roading experiance last fall up on the Pig Trail on NW Ark. I looked back in the rearview after a nice downhill switchback to just see a cloud of dust and gravel flying along the outside of the curve and out into a yard. No damage and it really didn't even slow ole Donald down.... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/w00t.gif) Ken |

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/w00t.gif) Ken Well I believe we were well past the pig trail, even though I did spin out on the trail also, but it was a really fun ride. Long downhill with a sweeper to the right. me, well I was doing a little too much sight seeing and suddenly realized I was into the sweeper too fast. Not really too fast as much as I was in the wrong gear to power out of the curve so I ended up doing this really awesome NASCAR slide through most of the sweeper and already had my spot picked in the yard where I was going to land. Fortunately the 914 Gods were watching out for me and I stopped with only the back half of the car off road. Stuck her back in first and nailed it slinging dirt, grass and gravel everywhere as I let out a big ol YEEEEE HAAAAA and kept on trucking. WAS A NICE RUSH!!! p.s. I bought new tires the next week! |
