Title: Back in the Saddle Again Post by: armybiker on June 11, 2009, 12:33:20 PM So... I have not wrote a lot on here as I have been in Iraq for a while. I am 12 months into a 14 month tour. I had sold my S2R 800 before I left and just today bout a M1100 for me and a 848 for the wife. We will be back in the area soon and look forward to some rides.
On of our first rides though we would like to do a Killeen to the Gulf ride with little highway riding. I was barely at Ft. Hood before I left so does anyone know a good route from there and a good place to spend a week? Thanks for any help and hope to hear from you all soon Rich Title: Re: Back in the Saddle Again Post by: hiero on June 11, 2009, 12:46:03 PM welcome back on the board and thanks for your service!

Ring them out and they'll be fine! And, if ever in trouble, give it more gas. ;D Have a safe trip home.

Title: Re: Back in the Saddle Again Post by: armybiker on June 12, 2009, 05:59:57 AM Well we will wait a week or two before anything serious and I ALWAYS avoid the highways. Just wondering if anyone knew and nice routes from the Killeen/Austin area down to South Padre.
It will be great when I finally get home. 56 days, not that I am counting or anything. Title: Re: Back in the Saddle Again Post by: Buckethead on June 12, 2009, 06:47:44 AM Just like riding a bike. Exactly. It only hurts when you fall off or run into stuff. [thumbsup] Title: Re: Back in the Saddle Again Post by: Porsche Monkey on June 13, 2009, 11:02:09 AM Exactly.
