Allen "Iron Butt" Wood left Frank T's house in Decauter Al this morning and made it to my house about 3pm. I gave him some peanut butter and crackers and put him to bed. I'll be leading him to the northwest corner of Ark on my RZ to ride across Kansas to Colorado Springs on his way to Canada tomorrow! Keep him in your thoughts the next few days.
John

Allen is unstoppable! :clap: My S3 is also known as Allen's former S3. He rode it from Pa. to Fl. I wouldn't be surprised if one day he rides around the world on a moped! :mrgreen: :lol: Best of luck to both of you! :wave:

He's come through here on hit Kettle and BMW a few times. Unstoppable is an understatement :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: He'll have dry weather through here today - told him it was monsoon season but he's got a few days window.

Yesterday morning Wednesday August 2ND we got started about 8am. I led Allen from North central Arkansas to the very north west corner of the state. It was a 150 mile ride for us and about our fuel range. We stopped in Eureka Springs Arkansas for fuel and lunch. Allen didn't have a planned route so we checked his map app for non interstate routes to Colorado Springs and off he went! I returned the 150 miles back home. 305 miles yesterday for me and I had, had it. Allen rode to Marion Kansas before stopping for the day. More than 450 miles for him.
