Ducati Monster Forum

I usually ride every Sunday early in the morning, anybody want to tag along?

Well if anybody is interested we are meeting at Rudy's BBQ on I-10 at 08:00 Sunday, heading up to Luckenbach. My friends on the 748 and 996 will be there and maybe a couple others bikes.

I'm glad to say that Porschaholic showed up unexpectedly to increase the Monster count to 2 and the Ducati count to 4. Here are a few pics of the ride to Luckenbach.

 :D
Awesome bikes! Maybe next time i can tag along.   [thumbsup]

I'll start posting where we are going and the meeting spot and time each weekend, so that who ever wants to show up can tag along with us.

Sorry for the late notice, but we are meeting up on the North side of town at the IHOP on 1604 and 281. We will be ridng up 281 to 311 and then probably 473 out West. Hope to see some of you there.

Sorry Greg, can't make this one. Scooter needs a new clutch.

No problem John, we had a great ride and we will catch you on the next run. I'll try and get the ride info as soon as possible and post it here on the board so that anybody can join us if they wish.

I'd like to go 16, PR37, 1283, 470 to Utopia for breakfast...strafe Lost Maples a few times then 470 or 337 otw back.   :)  Used to do that route every Sunday few years back with Texas Sport Bike Assoc on my Aprilia.  I'll pm ya my cell SA2r

Great turnout! Look like a fun time [thumbsup]
How was the heat?
 & who's LM is that? Not familiar with that one...

That sounds like fun - we have been out to the Motorcycle Museum in Vanderpool and also Lost Maples, that is a great ride.


The heat was pretty good as we got an early start and we had some good cloud cover. The LM belongs to James who is one of my regular Sunday riding buddies. He also has a set of Xerox skins for the same bike.

For anybody that wants to ride Sunday (August 10th), meet at the Exxon on the cormer of 1604 and 16 at 08:00. We will be riding out 16 to Bandera and then Medina and then we will head West out 337 to Vanderpool.

Due to the crummy weather there are is no planned ride for Sunday 24th. Maybe next weekend will bring the sun out again.

Today is the first day I've been on the bike since our last ride.  Next time we go out I will probably hang at the back of the pack and take it easy.  Still kind of spooked after Brad's get off. 

I hear ya on that one.
We are hoping to ride this Sunday as long as the weather cooperates. Will post details here as soon as I get them.

Hi, somewhat new to this area when it comes to riding but I have a 748 and looking to ride with some people. My bike is down right now due to a wire or ecu fault but dont have much more digging to do. Let me no when and where yall ride and If amyone with a 748 is in the area please call me if you have an ECU laying around. My problem is injector related. My name is Kostin and my cell is 210-995-2886 Thanks

Welcome Kostin,
I Haven't been able to make any rides posted by SA_S2R yet, but I hope he keeps posting them, because I sure do want to get out soon. not this weekend, but next weekend is looking good for me. I don't have any spare parts lying around, but i hope you get it fixed soon.

Hey Wasabi what do you ride and what area are you in? im Located near San Antonio Raceway. The drag strip. Also near Randolph Brook AFB.

I am located in Helotes which is on the North West edge of San Antonio. There has not been too much group riding lately as several folks have had bike problems. I usually ride every Sunday morning except for bad weather. I prefer to go out early to beat the heat, traffic and cops. I usally check this board every couple of days just to see what is going on, so if you want to ride just post a message on this thread.
If you just want to meet up then there are a couple of options close to me (not sure about your side of town). Every Wednesday night is Bike Night at "Hills and Dales" and Floores Country Store has also started a bike night every Thursday. If you want to get together sometime then just post when you'd like to meet up and I'll come aout and join you. I will be doing quite a bit of travelling out of town in the next few months so Wednesday and Thursday nights might take some coordinating.

If you're looking for some twisties to ride then I can show you a few of the popular local roads.

Take care and welcome to San Antonio.

If anyone is interested then meet at the Exxon on the corner of 1604 and 16 at 8:30 Sunday morning. Not sure which route yet, but we'll either do a short ride out to Medina Lake via Park Road 37 or if people want to do a longer ride we will head out 16 to Bandera, and on to Medina, from there we'll take 337 out to Vanderpool and then take 187 and 470 back to Bandera.

Kostin,
I am located at 35 and 1604 near the forum shopping center. I should be available this weekend if any one wants to do something.

OK - the weather is great and it's time for another ride. Most of the people I ride with are having bike problems, but I'm going to ride no matter what, so if you'd like to meet up then here is the plan.

We have not done 473 in a while, so anybody that wants to ride meet up at the IHOP on the corner of 281 and 1604 at 8:30 on Sunday. We'll hang there for 15-20 minutes in case we have a few stragglers.

New plan - I've heard that there is a group that rides from Alamo Cycle Plex at 9:00 on Sundays. Figured I'd give these guys a shot and see how it goes.

They leave at 9:00 so be there at 8:30-8:45.

Hope to see you there.

You guys missed out on a good ride today. It's a pretty diverse group that meet at Alamo Cycleplex, with everything from Harleys to KTM's, cruisers and crotch rockets.
We headed up I-10 then North up Ralph Fair road, went west on Ammannd Road till we hot 281 at Bulverde. North on 281 then eest again on 46, then onto 3159 then 2673 to Canyon Cty by the lake. From there we headed NorthEast onto FM32 joined up with 281 again and headed through Blanco to 1623 then onto 1888 to Luckenbach, down South again through Sisterdale to Boerne, from there we took I-10 back into town.

All told it was about 160 miles. Seperate groups were encouraged and the faster riders led the way, and who ever wanted to go slower came in with the second pack.

I would certainly ride with this group again. Hope to see some of you guys in the future, especially as I was the lone Ducati as usual :D

-Greg.

If anybody wants to ride, then meet up at 8am at the Exxon on  90 and Military.
I hav ealso heard that there is a group of sport bike riders that meet up at the Exxon in Helotes at 8am on Sundays. That is the Exxon IN Helotes not the one at the corner 1604 and 16. I've never ridden with that group, but just wanted to pass the word.

Thanks SA_S2R... I appreciate the info.... Got other plans though.  Have a good ride [moto]
