Gentlemen,

I will be in Houston next week working. I will arrive this Sunday the 23rd and will be in town through Thursday the 27th, available to meet up for an afternoon ride or Dinner anytime after 4pm. I am working up in the Woodlands area but am willing to ride, so...

I bring this up for two reasons;
#1) I am riding down and always enjoying meeting up and seeing VRCC Members.
#2) One of you has already reached out to me to bring an Adapter Bracket to purchase and save on shipping (can't beat handle delivery).
 - Who among you would also like to purchase a bracket? Email me ValkyrieJosh@gmail.com, PM me, or reply to this post with your interest.
  + If you are interested I can bring you just a bracket, or..
  + I am also a Distributor for Eagle Lights and now sell a kit. I can get you a deal on a Headlight, mount the bracket, and bring you the whole kit.

I'm looking forward to me trip down south. Hope the weather cools off, and hope to me some of you.

Looks like scattered showers, and cooler temps in the forecast for next week. Perfect!

What is the best night for you ?
Can anyone in the group suggest a restaurant towards the north side where we all could meet?

Anyone up for Los Cucos in Jersey Village?  Monday and Tuesday they have Margaritas on special.  And they are soooo good!  My wife and I always eat there when in Houston.

How about Tuesday night?

The headlight is a Eagle Lights Blacked-Out, Gen II DayMaker with the bracket mounted,  and a chrome trim ring for $220.00

Looking forward to dinner tomorrow night.

Had a nice dinner at Los Cucos with Fred, Chantal, Josh and my better and prettier half Margaret.  Lively conversation, good food and margaritas on special.  Whoop!
