Post by: dougvtx on June 22, 2012, 07:27:46 PM
Everyone is invited to the Austonio Volunteer Fire Department's  July 4th BBQ on July 7th. It's in Austonio on Hwy 21 about halfway between Madisonville and Crockett.  The fire house is located behind Jim and Rosie's Biker Gear motorcycle apparel shop.  Stop by and give a little community some support. All are welcome.  :good:

I've got another guy from Conroe that rides a Kawasaki Voyager. He may meet up with us.  We can eat breakfast at the Indian Hills cafe and then ride off.

Sounds like a plan.  This is a fairly short ride for me.
I'll be there.
What route will you all be taking?  I can meet up along the way and ride in with the group.

We'll probably meet up at the Indian Hills restaurant on Lake Livingston. Or you could meet up with us at Hwy 19 and 980 in Riverside. I think AJ and the guys want to meet and eat breakfast at the Lake and then move on.  Contact me if you need to find this restaurant. It's not too far off 190 between Onalaska and Livingston, in a little area just west of Blanchard. It's right at the end of Fm 2457.

Meeting for breakfast sounds good.  What time will you be at the restaurant?

Post by: dougvtx on June 24, 2012, 07:41:26 PM
I think AJ and Steve are going to try to be there around 0830 in the morning. If you want, you can meet us there or I can meet you somewhere, or you can find it by yourself.  The restaurant that is. Just let me know which way you are coming and I can give directions to you. Either way. Or call me on my mobile at 414-331-1390.  Cell phones don't work too good around here so you might hit my voicemail first, but you can contact me.
I'll try to get AJ to confirm what times he's looking at. He and Steve will be meeting in Buna, I believe and then they'll head to Lake Livingston.

Doug, I think for AJ and I,it would be closer for us to take 105 west to 146 north to190 to 2457 to resturant. I'll touch base with AJ before then

Post by: dougvtx on June 25, 2012, 07:04:58 AM
That's probably the fastest. Your only traffic will be through Livingston. If you look up Blanchard, TX, follow 2457 to the west, where it ends.  At the end of 2457,  turn right at last road at the lake and the restaurant is on the left.

I'm assuming this is the breakfast stop:

 252 Indian Hill Blvd, Livingston, TX 77351
http://m.google.com/u/m/A5pOa4 (http://m.google.com/u/m/A5pOa4)


Correct?
If that's the place, it is about an hour from me.  No problem.

That's it, VTX Dan. I know you, Flipflop and I will probably be there.  If you are coming from Huntsville, go east on 190, through Onalaska. Turn at caution light at 190 and 3126. You can only go right. Next caution light is at 3126 and 2457. Turn right again. All the way to the end, about 2-3 miles. Turn right on last street and it's on the left about 500'.   I hope to meet up with you.

Today is the day.  The forecast is looking pretty good, but it's gonna be warm.

Doug...I'll see you at 10-ish at the Valero.

I made it home alright. The last 15 miles was a little damp.

Glad to hear that you made it home safely.  I was looking at the radar when I got home, and your home area was covered in orange and red.

Had a good time and a nice ride today.  Let's do it again.  Give me a shout next time you're in my neck of the woods.

After I got home, it rained for about an hour.  We'll have to meet up again for a ride.  :good:
