Date: February 11th
Meet : The Nook @ 1218 W Main St, Tomball, TX 77375
Kick Stands Up: 8:00AM
Duration: Ride time is over 5 hours so this ride with breaks and lunch will take 8+ hours.  If you have somewhere to be at a certain time please plan accordingly.  

I'll be at the Nook around 7AM to eat breakfast.  We'll head out from there on the route posted below to the Stanzel Model Aircraft Museum. The ride up is about 125 miles but the roads are mostly back roads so it will take a few hours.  The ride back is a little shorter and a more direct route but with a good view still.  This is one I have been wanting to do for a while so am glad to be able to get it in as the next TBL ride.  

In case of bad weather this will be moved to a later date, keep posted on this group page for any updates.  

Here is the planned route up:

The route back:
https://www.motogoloco.com/map?route=30953

If you download the GPX from these maps be sure to pre-run the route in your GPS.  Sometimes the GPS logic likes to change the route.

But a good rock throw might hit it!

In a couple of spots we will see the folks driving to California but we will be turning before we all become friends.  There is a really cool old bridge over the Colorado river on one of those roads by I10.

Just 3 days away.  On the route back I am stopping in LaGrange for Gold'NCrisp Chicken for a burger.  Yes, they have great burgers.

2 days away!  This is going to be a great day to ride.  Breakfast at the Nook is always a good thing too.
