Some years back a crew from the Houston area met up in the early wee hours of one June weekend and we rode to Marble Falls for breakfast. Some guys from the CenTex crew also met us up. I am contemplating putting together this ride again. The idea is to get a nice early morning ride and try to be back before the hottest part of the day kicks in.
From the Houston area we met up at 290 and Mueske Rd at the Buccees and basically rode to Cedar Park just north of Austin. Then we rode FM 1431 to Marble Falls and had breakfast at the Super Taco. After breakfast some made some other riding arrangements and others just started to make the trek back home to Houston. we took a little route that eventually got us back home around 2 p.m. and then a well deserved nap was in order.
From Houston to Marble Falls is roughly 200 miles and from DFW area about the same. We don't have to exactly eat at Super Taco but 1431 is a really nice route.

The Bluebonnet Cafe is always a good choice! Their breakfasts are some of the best I've ever had!!
Once we set a date, we can check to see if they might have a room/ area that we could reserve; depending on how many we have that wants go!

When we did this we met up at the Buccees around 3:50 am and then burned out @ 4 a.m.. Couple of stops and then the best part of the ride is on 1431.

Sorry guys, I got my dates messed up. They are July 9 & 23. My wife is off work on the 16th & we usually spend time with the grandsons when she is off.

Can't make it on the 16th...The Libmeisters Birthday...we may be on the coast or tubing the Frio...

MATAP & ROCKET
Can we shoot for 7/23??

What does everyone think about the 23rd. That was my second option.

I'm in & I bet that Steve will be in also!!

I'm open.

I'm in if there is a cool front that day ;D

:cool2: :cool2: :cool2: :cool2:
So that makes 4 of us, so far. I know BobcatBiker was interest and I'm going to check with my best friend & see if he might want to come along. He'd fit in with Matap & Rocket cause he rides a Harley also.
Now all we need is a meetin' up time!!!!
-
Let me take a look...we are trying to get away for Libby's birthday sometime in July...but it's dependent on who can assist with caring for her Dad since he lives with us.
I want Libby to go...but I may end up going solo...

Paul will be leading so....cool front. Am I right? Ha ha ha ha. :bikerider: :stickpoke:

So, if y'all left Houston at 4 AM, what time would we need to meet up in Cedar Park? There's a Walmart on the corner of old 183 & FM 1431, we could meet there.

Your on top of it. That's the place. I will post a formal thread on meetup times in Cedar park. The different areas can use the same thread to post up your local meet up. I will post up the local Houston area meet up.

So what is the whole plan ? ;D
