I was in Luckenbach a couple of weeks ago and the bartender there told me of a place called Cranky Frank's BBQ in Fredericksburg. Said it was the best around anywhere. It was on the main road (can't remember the hiway #) coming into town from the south and on the left hand side of the street. Found the site for ya, hope this helps.

Of course you're invited.
Fredricksburg sounds good. It's been awhile since I've been through there myself. Suzanne wants to do some shopping. Is Lori's schedule open? Maybe she could come along too.
-
Can't make it this weekend,have family coming in from Houston to celebrate my birthday for a second time. When you turn "60" it really doesn't matter when you have it even if it has to be done again just to remind you.
-
Happy Birthday Danny! O0
-
Yes Lori could go I would assume that They could Drive the car.....
-
Anyone who reads this is not only invited but encouraged to come. LOL.....The more the merrier.
-
I'm in!! I miss Big Pappy!! Where can I meet ya? Motz is back from California now, so maybe I can talk him and the missus into joining us! ;)
-
I would join y'all but I am riding the bike to a church retreat north of Leakey (Laity Lodge) on Fridayand staying til Sunday. The weather is nice so I will get out and ride the three twisted sisters during the "quiet reflection time".
Jesus would have ridden a VTX 1800 Retro. No doubt in my mind.
The bumper sticker on my bike reads, "I'm Riding My Psychiatrist."
-
RD, are ya getting the lodge all fixed up so we can all come out for a visit?? sounds like fun !! ;D ;D O0
-
Sorry you can't make it Dan. Jeff and I are going to ride. Suzanne and Lori are taking the car, so they can do some shopping. Jeff and I were planning on having breakfast in SA, around 8:30-9, then ride up to Fredricksburg. We can turn the Ladies loose on Main St., go for a short ride, then meet back in town for lunch, then go for another ride. Jeff M, bring your bride along. We could just meet up in Fredricksburg.
Like smoothx said, everyone is welcome. O0

Yep!! We've been there and back 3x's already. It was 43* Sunday morning.
Happy Birthday Danny. 8)

happy B day danny!!!! O0 O0

Thanks guys,been working on the bike most of the night. I installed the light bar this week end and I am having a little trouble getting them adjusted. Seem to be blinding cagers that I meet and going down the highway I light up the exit signs for about a 3/4 miles down the rode. And when I am in the city I reflect off the exit signs for 3 to 4 exits.
-
Can't make it Saturday, but will keep eyes on the ride board.
Happy b-day, Danny....those lights are for your "advanced" vision, eh???
Cheers,
Boomer
-
The way they are aimed right now in could pick off a deer sleeping in a tree 500 ft away. But for us old folks we need all the lighting we can get for better vision anytime. One good thing about turning 60, I went out to Randolph and got my blue ID,which means look out HDL on the first of each month.

What is a blue ID?

Gets you into the NCO club for dinner on Friday nights.
-
When you retire from the reserves you get a red ID card which is good to use for anything on any base,but when you reach the age of 60 you get the blue ID with all the priveleges plus you start receiving your retirement pay.
-
anyone else going to make the ride?
-
I'm in, but I have a question in to RD as to where breakfast is that day....
anyone else from Austin, (and north), want to ride down? :)
-
where are ya'll planning on meeting for dinner? ??? my wife and i may ride across to lampasas and cut across to 16 and come down that way, to meet up with yoose guy's ;D or if there is enough in cedar park we might come that way, let us know O0
-
the wife and i may be able to make it, possibly get david and gerri to come as well. david is back in town from california this weekend. i'll know something for sure friday evening and i'll let y'all know. ride safe.
-
Okay, it looks like RD and SmoothX will be at the IHOP in 1604/281 around 8:30 on Saturday, so I plan on leaving Austin around 7 - 7:30am. If there is more than me, we can meet at the usual WalMart. Let me know....
Brock, could you move this to the Central Texas board?
-
WHERE ARE WE MEETING FOR LUNCH ???
-
no telling, somewhere with the wimmenfolk around 1, as per RD....
-
Hooter had someone recommend this place: http://www.sundayhouseinn.com/crankyfrank1.htm
We've never really eaten any BBQ in Fredricksburg, always gone to Copper's (saying that name with reverent awe.) Based on that, I thought it may be time to step out, and try someplace new.
Ride Time table:
* Meet up @ IHOP-San Antonio, 281/1604 @ 8:30am
* Leave IHOP @ 9:30am and head to Fredricksburg via 281 to Blanco, 1888 to 1376 through Luckenbach, and into Fredricksburg.
* There's a large Chevron station on the north side of 290 going into town. I think it's next to a Pizza Hut, or Sonic, can't remember. We'll be there around 10:30am.
* Planning to eat lunch around 1pm, we'll take a general census where everyone wants to ride, and get us back to town at that time.
* Eat lunch, 1pm @ Cranky Franks
* Decide after lunch, who wants to go where.
-
how about a time to meet in fredricksburg for lunch
-
Looks like 1pm, Cranky Frank's
-
doesn't look like we'll be able to make it. some morning plans came up, won't be able to head out till around 10 or so. were going to ride but won't be an all-day'er. y'all be careful and ride safe.
-
Looks like the usual suspects are riding later, or taking different routes, so I'll be skipping WalMart, and taking off from my lush and spacious casa. If anyone else decides to ride with us, (RD, smoothX, Motz, BigA later), meet at the IHOP at 1604 and 281, (south side of 1604, west of 281), between 8:30 and 9:30. Everyone have a good weekend, and ride safe! O0
-
All right, let the festivities begin!!

-
SO I will break the ice. Jeff ran out of GAS. I guess he needs to RIDE with us more often, or at least ride his bike more often, so he cen figure out when to fill up..... LOL........ However it was fun pushing him off. Oh yeah thanks for the lunch. You DA man.
-
Just a small, "Fuel Malfunction". No prob. Sorry we didn't get there sooner. Thanks again. O0
