Sounds like alot of fun, but I don't think I could pull it off in a weekend.

You're not limited to a weekend. Plus, there are some surprising trails within a short driving distance of Combs. Lots of riding in north and west-central Arkansas.
Although the dates for this "unofficial nonevent" are Feb 27, 28. & March 1st, some riders come early, and some stay late. (And some do both. )
Many fill out a week's trip by riding Brock Creek or the hare scramble course down at Fort Smith while they are here.

Let's see.... It's only 2000 miles from here to where I ride in Idaho, where we ride. By swapping with another driver, I can make it in about 30 hours (or less, depending on "stopped time" during the trip). It really is do-able, just not in a weekend.

Good Riding!

Jim
