Yeah, yeah, yeah.  Are you bringing the wife?

Next question, are you riding the Valk or coming by some other means?

Either way, you got it.

Anyone else want me to advance get your tickets for you?  Son is trying to help us out on this.

Have only had about 8 I am holding tickets for right now.  I do realize some of you are holding off waiting on the weather.  Come on, don't be a pansy.

So far looking like we have 34 saying they will probably be here.  Wooohooooo.....    Can't Wait!

Got my 2 tickets on the internet the other night, $20 each.  Don't know how much wild game the wife will eat, but hopefully there will be things on the table that she recognizes...  Smiley

Rain or shine, we will be 2....

Does anyone have the Honda carb jet adjustment tool?  If so, could you please bring it to the ride?  I'm running a little lean and need to adjust the jets.  I have an after market stubby tool, but it's been a pain to get it aligned with the d-shaped screw head.  Thanks.

Well, I just got the wife to start eating beef a out 10 years ago. Smiley She likes her steak well done and her brisket real lean. But i'm sure she will find some good food that she likes. If nothing else, she will eat veggies and desserts. Smiley
Thanks for thinking about us.

Anyone who plans to ride with us tomorrow, we are leaving from the Chevron Station next to the Heart of Texas Motel with kick stands up at 9:30.

We have a good crew here already and looks like we will have a great time tomorrow.  I think I counted 14 bikes here in the motel.

Time to have fun.

Got to the house around 1:30 from the Mid Winter Gathering in Austin.  Had a pretty good time in spite of the stinkin' rain.  I mean with wild game for dinner, how could you not have a great time !

Amen!  We made it in, high and dry, about 1.  Thanks for the suggestion to run 71 to 10.  A touch of mist was all we saw, and it wasn't of any major duration.

Good folks, good food, great weekend!

Duane's not from Michigan anymore.  I saw him shivering in a Texas December.

Oh, and by the way, you missed Bobby (Gear Jammer) and his wife.  I think Charlie and Dena's son came along to dinner, as well.

I went to Walmart with Bandit and Matt on Friday evening. When we came out of the store there was an old guy in a pick-up parked right by us that died in the truck. Bandit wouldn't let me take pictures.

Thank you Bandit!!  The poor deceased needed some form of dignity, don't you think?

You certainly do find some interesting situations!!
