Ride to Mid-Winter Ride

[QOTFU]

Is anybody interested in going somewhere like the Blue Bell Ice Cream Factory for the tour on the way to Austin? Let me know and I can make a group reservation. I'm guessing Blacks in Lockhart for BBQ would be on the radar too. Let me know.

IF you get here early, the advance party (Santa Chuck, Wizard and I) will be leaving the morning of the 17th.  Our plans are to establish a beach-head and pre-ride the route for Saturday's ride.  Always like to be aware of any problems or difficulties prior to leading a good sized group on a ride.

If you are in town that early and wish to ride over on Thursday give me a call on my cell.  The number is 281foursixseven3909.

Looking forward to meeting you.

Franco, I've been buying my tires from discount motorcycle tires in Pasadena for quite sometime usually about the same as mail order and if you pull the wheel and bring it in $7.50 gets it mounted and balanced. Usually very fast service too.

Hey Ray, what exit do you take off the highway to get back to the motel?  If I remember right, you cross back under and go back down the feeder road.  I will be coming from the east.  Just don't remember what exit you take......

The exit is Monterey Oaks Blvd.
