Title: Bluebonnet Thunder Rally XII - Public Service announcement
Post by: matap on April 15, 2015, 10:40:48 AM
We are 1 week away from our 12th annual Bluebonnet rally and just wanted to post up a few things before anyone starts heading out. 

-Schedule of events are subject to change without notice but will make our very best attempt to let everyone know.  Either directly or passed on amongst us. 

-I will have copies of the Schedule so everyone has a copy

-Last year registration was mainly done up front of the Pioneer Rv park under porch of the Rec room, however if not there please look for the 'Texas X Riders' banner at a table and you will find the volunteers.   Even if you are not staying at the RV Pioneer park you will need to come see us to register, get your shirt and food pass and any other details that will be provided to you.

-Guided rides are just that - A lead will take you out on a predetermined route.  You are more than welcomed to follow or go on your own leisurely route.  Plenty of X riders will be in the area if assitance is needed.  It is highly likely that we will have to break up the group rides into smaller groups.  Large groups don't travel well on these roads. 

-This year we have an outdoor movie hosted, so if possible and you can fit it in your luggage please bring some folding chairs.  I'm asking a favor from members driving, towing, or trailering....if you have extra foldable chairs please bring them with you.  Tag them with your names to be sure you get them back.  I will be bringing every possible foldable chair I have. 

-Bring cash.  while most of the modern world accepts credit cards or even those paper things you write numbers on that are supposed to represent funds, many places out here do not take anything but good'ole green bills.

-Be careful in Bandera - no speeding and definitely no drinking while riding because you will get pulled over. 

-Recently there was some issues with some residents of Bandera and bikers from Thunder on the River rally in Bandera so please be courteous to the residents and even tourist.  They were there first and will continue to be.

-I can not emphasize this enough.....Ride your own Ride, that means don't feel pressured to take any roads faster than you feel comfortable to or beyond your skill level.  YOU WILL PUT YOUR LIFE AT RISK TO THE POINT OF DEATH AND EVEN THOSE RIDING AROUND YOU.  We want everyone to go back home with pleasent memories and returned safely to their families. 

-Please patronize the local businesses and let them know about us.  They treated us very good last year and some even mentioned they can't wait to have us this year.

-Last but not least.  Let's have a good time....riding, fraternizing, eating, drinking & or whatever makes you happy.  See you there.

Libby and I had a great time...great people, great venue, didn't mind the weather...but all the planning and organization can't be overlooked.  Thanks to all that helped organize as well as participate.  Can't wait for next year...a few of us were talking about a state meet n greet somewhere in the fall.

Thanks Gary and everyone....yes, there is a lot of planning and prep that goes in, but it is all worthless without the group we have that shows up, participates and has fun.  It was a blast...come on next year.

Steve, a fall ride/event would be cool.  Let us know the details when they develop.
