Title: Home from BBT
Post by: sherri on April 26, 2009, 11:26:45 AM
Had a good time even though I was only there a day and a half. Good to meet some more new people. Hope everyone had fun.

I made it home Saturday morning just in time to work my show. Stopped and rented a hotel in Giddings Friday on the way home, shortly after the trooper pulled me over  :( (just a warning) but the lines in the road were starting to blurr from lack of sleep anyways.

Can't wait for next year.

We made it home at 3:30, and never got rained on.  We saw the north Dallas Crew when we stopped for lunch in Hico, but no-one else.  Had a great time, can't wait til next year.

 Put rain gear on before I left BBT. Didn't hit a drop of rain. The wind wore me out. Got home at 2:15 and took a nap. Was great putting faces with names and seeing some of the old timers again. 3 in a row for the X man.  :goldwing:

Wayne and I got back around 5:30 after dropping off stuff at other people's houses.  We had a great time even tho the weather did not totally cooperate with the event.  It was better to be at BBT with the sucky weather then to have not gone at all.  Will definitely watch for next year's dates.

North Dallas crew arrived home around 3pm'ish.  Too tired to remember what time it was.  That is the most I have drank since college.  OUCH!  We hit a few small rain showers but didn't last long each time.  We all had a blast and the three sisters was definitely worth doing Saturday.

The two new BBT couples in our group really enjoyed the area, the Friday run we did to Bandera and especially the three sisters all day ride Saturday.  The three sisters Saturday was the longest my fiancee, Jennifer, had ever been on the bike.  She really enjoyed it.  We have video of the three sisters now and it turned out pretty good.

Hope everyone made it home safe,

I had a blast as well even though i could only stay for Saturday.. Loved the company. had some great laughs and didn't get asked two many questions about the "extra" female voices heard on my cell while talking to the wife at the restaurant. LOL Got home safe and in plenty time to be out of the hill country before dark. Stinking Deer.. Thanks to all I met and hung with that day. I had a blast..  :)

Just wanted to let everyone know that I had a blast even if just for Saturday.  I went into Fred. and visited some friends until about 1 am and then decided to leave and ride to the house.  I ran thru a few small showers on 290 in Dripping Springs and then again in at the split of 290 & 71.
I only saw 6 deer and they were on 290 between Drip and Austin. 


I enjoyed the  :c &  :lunch:   It was great to make new friends!
I definitely must plan to stay overnight next year to enjoy more time with everyone (this is a super family to be a part of).  Thanks to all!   :bikerider:

Hey to all, was nice to get to meet everyone. We got home at 6:30. My bike on a trailer, I rode Tammys home from Kemper....long way without a windshield...keep telling her shes one tuff biker chic...anyway...didn't hit much rain, had a blowout in Kemper. Had to wait 3 hours on a friend to come with truck and trailer to get my bike home. Guess I will be getting one of them Metzeler 880 tires in the 200/60/16 version. Again, thanks to all, we had a blast...How long till the next gathering? Oh yea, thanks for the cards Chad, it kept Tammy and Mikca entertained while we waited on the taxi....yall ride safe and keep the sunny side up.

Lets not get sappy; but Chad I liked yours as well.  :violin:
It is too cool to see how everyone has there own way of dressing their bike.  The lowering of yours with the racing stripe and the forwards, plus the chrome.  Of course you are not a match for the Chrome Wh@#$  :t  that I am. 
It was nice to meet you at BBT!   :bikerider:

Made it back home safely. Tired from the weekend, and even more tired from battling the winds! It was a great weekend and I enjoyed meeting everyone! I want to thank the "Motorhome Campers" for their hospitality Friday night. I enjoyed the conversation and the jello shooters and had a fun time visiting, while the tent campers were away getting batty!
Hookem, when I can get the crew from Houston to do a run up to Toledo Bend (?), I hope you and those who ride there can meet up. ( I can't remember all the routes you guys told me about ).

Chad, glad I finally got to see the Racin' X! I like what you've done to it since picking it up ... 2 hours after I last called the guy!  :banghead:   :thumbup:

Some great looking bikes at the bike show too! Only sorry I've been working to much to have gotten my X back on the road and up for the event. Came so very close, but little details still have to be finished.

So thanks everyone who worked so hard to put this event together!  :congrats:

The turbo blew up. Vanessa is still wanting to just buy a new truck, but I don't want to buy anything out there right now. I did however find out that there are great people still out there. David and Geri turned around and picked up Vanessa and the kids while I had everything towed in. Then they took us back to their house and loaned us their car so we could get back here to take care of the truck and trailer.  :notworthy: :notworthy: :notworthy: Thanks go out to the Divitas

Naw. Took the long way home and played another day. Thought I had outrun the rain for a while, but it finally caught up with me.
