So this question was asked Saturday evening at dinner: "Why isn't there a fee for this event?" My answer was simply "because this is something we do for fun." This is basically how the BMT got started: Back in 2007, Jerome and I knew how much fun it was to drive our S2000s on the windy roads throughout the area. Then we thought of how much MORE fun it would be to share the experience with a handful of others. Never did we imagine that it would turn into what it is today. Kudos to Andy for keeping it going.
After thinking about the initial question a little more, I'd like to add my personal thought on the whole task of collecting money, keeping track of who paid and who hasn't, figuring out how much to charge, etc. - that does not sound like fun,
so that could be considered part of the reason there isn't a fee. Lastly, if there was a fee, think of what that would do to our expectations as participants. While constructive criticism, suggestions for future events, and general feedback are seriously welcomed and appreciated, we're not trying to turn the BMT into an event like the Crescent Classic, Porsche Palooza, or Corvette Weekend.
It was great seeing everyone!
Hope everyone made it home safe. Pix to follow sometime...

MarbleGT (Jordan) and his mad photo skills are a tough act to follow, but here are some of mine. These are just from the dam site park and the suspension bridge. There are a few more which I'll edit and add in the upcoming days.

Fast paced videos and great still shots! Thank you all for a great Fall BMT 2014. You viewers that have not attended an Arkansas Boston Mountains Tour that live within 2 or 3 states away, should consider making the drive to experience the Spring BMT 2015 event. Thanks Julie!
