Anyone up for a ride weekend before July 4th or the weekend after? destination is open, any suggestions from the group?
I think most of the North Texas group should be done with vacations/Weddings/Anniversaries/Graduations/Dog needing Shots by then :t
I know Lance is tied up till the 4th for the Sat rides. Not sure if he can make a Sunday but sure would be nice to get him out and away from work :good:

I'll be in up state NY, but you should try Maw Maw's fried pies -- if you haven't been it is a worth while trip :lunch: :lunch: Be sure if you go to tell the ladies Gumbo sent you and wish he could be there. :c
This place usually draws a good crowd.

I was just thinking it is about time for Maw Maws again. Then logged in and saw this. I guess twisted minds think alike. :looney:

Man I'M still cleaning bugs off the bike from Sat., I was looking for roads north of DFW so we can get our Dallas and Fort Worth riders together again. It was such a great group on Sat. that it would be a shame to not ride together again.

How about a trip out to Possum Kingdom Lake? I've never been there...

We are leaving on June 29th to join the Colorado riders for their annual ride. We won't be back until July 9th. If you have some vacation time during that week, you should head over to the Colorado board and check out their ride and head northwest and join us.

Guys
After doing the Waco ride in almost 100+, I was thinking of doing Possum Kindom when it cools down abit. Its supposed to be 100+ on Sat. how about a ride a to Celina? Its about an hour out from Justin, there is a excellent diner Lucy's In The Square. I am thinking meet about 9 nice ride up 377 and over to Prosper then hit the diner 10:30 or so.
Steve, Jim, Blade and Stranded you'all up for it?

I'm in for the ride...

We will be headed to the Coloradical ride in Cortez...

Here is the new ride for this Sat. I did all back roads and the route is around 1 1/2 hours, about an hour on the freeway but not as much fun.
The start is at the Exxon off 35w @ Justin Road on the north side of the freeway. Lets plan on KSU around 9:30 so we get in after 11 just in time for lunch. We don't want to get there at 12 as they are usually packed.
They have a buffet for 10.99 breakfast/lunch/deserts etc. and also you can order off the menu.
I need RSVP's NLT Friday so I can reserve a table.
