Thanks so much to Andy and all involved in organizing this. It might have been the best one yet! With the amazing roads and the leaves changing colors, it was simply an amazing day.

I took almost 400 photos, most of which were out the sunroof, so I'll try to skim that down to 40 or 50 & get them posted soon.

Here's a teaser, although this was with my iPhone.

I just re-ran 23 down the Pig Trail, 215, & 103 down to Clarksville "on my way" back to Alma to pick up my wife and munchkin. I hope heaven resembles those roads.

Wow, another GREAT trip!! The leaves were just right, and roads were really clean, Lots of cool people, and everyone returned safe! I'm Hooked! Count me in on each and every one of these BMT's!

I met a lot of great new people and saw lots from the spring run, and actually remember more names this time!!

KUDOS and many THANKS to Andy, Julie, Dave, Dave, Janet and Jerome (and others I'm still trying to remember the names of!) for putting together another GREAT event!

How many days until the Spring '12 event?

REMINDERS:

1. Tell your +1 thanks again. Plus ones are awesome! They obviously have nerves of steel to ride with you.

2. Some of you need to remember to use your inside voices before the next BMT.

3. What happens in Eureka Springs ....... stays in Eureka Springs.

Another successful and safe BMT. Great job on the routes and the different stop places; really enjoyed the drive and scenery. My hat is off to zbillster (above photos) and to this year's staff and organizers.
Will be putting my S up for the winter and will look forward to the Spring BMT.

Thanks again Ch0pper.

Thanks to Andy and everyone else involved for hosting this tour. Everything was organized and safety was stressed. We enjoyed the experience, thank you for allowing us to participate. Got 30.16 mpg on return trip home. All that fun and good gas mileage
