Meet at Starbucks, Terrell, Hwy 34 and I 20. 10:00am, KSU SHORTLY after. The plan is to ride south on 429 for some GREAT twisties (remember last time we rode that, one of the guys missed the twisties and went down through the ditch, no names but it was funny as $$%^%^&, since he wasn't hurt) east on 243 to Canton where we will pick up 64 east bound to 314 south into Edom. All you can eat chicken fried steak and pie with 6 inches of fluff on top, yum yum. Couple of choices coming home. For those in a hurry we will go north on 314 and cross I 20, you can go west from there. The rest of us will continue on 314 into Van then take 110 north to Grand Saline. West on 80 for 8 miles (yeah, I know, yuch!) North on 19 to Emory to west on 515 to cross Tawakoni Lake then south on 751 and south on 429 (more great twisties to wrap up the ride) and back into Terrell. Weather forecast is for mid 50's and sunny. A little gear should make for a great day of riding. Any questions or suggestions my cell is 469-595-3222. L

Hope you can go Dave. The only moving parts you should be considering are the two wheels going round and round beneath your saddle eastbound to Terrell ...  Let me know Amigo. |

Cold, 31-44 with a 'light wintry mix' ??? Precip potential 30%. Looks like a great day to ride (with Gerbings). Playing it by ear.

weather.com says 59 degrees and 10% chance of rain, partly sunny. Sounds like a good day to ride (if it really is that way). Of course, that forecast will change three times between now and then. Feel free to call my cell Sunday morning (not too early) if you have questions about going 469-595-3222. L

Looks like several guys from the DFW VTX riders group will be joining us for the ride. Yep, I know we can tease them about missing four cylinders but I'm also pretty sure they will respond with us missing about 30 hp. And, before anybody corrects me, the weather is supposed to be 55 degrees, not 59. Don't forget the 32-50 rule! If it is above 32 degrees and less than 50% chance of rain --- YOU RIDE!! C ya sunday at 10a.

I am in Tulsa at the moment and will have been up for over 36 hours by the time I get back to Dallas. I hope to be able to get some rest and make it in the morning.
Glad you decided to meetup at Starbucks DOC.

It still runs like... well, not as fast as the blue/silver I/S. And it's just too much to do in time for the ride tomorrow. Rear wheel is off and I'm putting in the steel 90 Degree valve stems since it seems to be leaking there, then servicing the splines, etc so I either work all night or get sleep and take Silvervalk. Hmmmmm...... I thinks I shall go to sleep now. I'll have to run the Seafoam through the slow black one next week.  And Yoda, you're bike is really chrome with a little black thrown in. RM |

Sorry you missed it, Ghillie. We had a great time. 12 for lunch.
Thank for leading the ride, Doc. No U-turns, but Rainmaker punched his "appropriate handle" card for 2011.
