Woody - ABSOLUTELY!!  All are welcome who support our troops and POW/MIA accountability!  This is exactly the place to meet a number of riders who will be on the Run so you can see what it's all about, learn all the lingo/acronyms.............and so we can talk you into it.  Big smile

Just give Gallupe a heads up that you're coming (and number in your party), so he can let the BBQ  place know.

Hey Woody, here's two videos that may give you a little taste -- but nothing compares to joining the run for the first time, learning this is truly a mission and becoming part of this great family.

(Yep, both been posted before -- but we're getting close now and if these don't get your anticipation in high gear, don't know what will.)

there are several of us meeting up at the Phillip 66 station at the Lake of the Woods exit in Columbia, this is the same station the RFTW fuels at during the Run. We are planning on leaving around 10am to ride to Concordia.  Anyone coming from the East is welcome to join up with us and ride together to Concordia. If interested post it here or shoot me an email at jamesdodson@netscape.net.

Gallupe, do you have Ron Kennedy and wife from the Kansas city area on your list.  If not I think he is coming.

Slammer - The Phillips 66 is just off I-70 going toward the Wentzville VFW unless it has changed to a QT, which is possible. I'm not sure how old the photo is I looked at, but the address is 1197 Highway Z. Give me a call - 314-791-4777

Just go with the address tsharp put - it's the station there on the right side on the road to the VFW.  I thought it was a QT, too, but when I googled it, it came up as  "U-Gas."  lol

Gary, I'm pretty sure there is only one gas station there, and according to Google, Mapquest & U-Gas' website, it is a Phillips 66 U-gas station. Here's a photo that came up when I went to their website.
Slammer - if I had known you were coming I would have looked for a DQ instead, but let's meet at the gas station.
