So 9am starbucks, 10am Bass Pro Shop parking lot right?  Lisa do you have a link to a printable map for the route we're taking?

[Cher]

Jester, 9am at the Starbucks then corral the folks over at BPS 'round 10.

I do not have a map, unfortunately, because I'm lame when it comes to computer related things.

Would it help if I described the route with highway numbers, cities, and towns so anyone can plot it out ahead of time?  It will be an all day ride; 2 1/2 hours to Muenster and lunch, then roughly two hours back.

It's a great ride and I think the weather looks like it will cooperate as well on Sunday.

I'm looking forward to it  [moto]

Just saw the weather forecast. Pretty much the same as last Sunday, maybe a few degrees cooler. Ninety to ninety one for a high, sunny, light winds, low should be upper 60s. Too bad these low to mid 70s high temps didn't stick around for the weekend. They will soon enough.

Hope Doc's isn't too crowded by the time you get there. It's worth the wait. The sausage sampler plate is worth the ride. All the roads are A-OK, no issues. There were a ton of scooters out last Sunday, probably more of the same this weekend. Everyone is sick of the recent rain and the summer heat. Interesting note, on my ride last Sunday I think there was a 98% "wave rate". I think damn near every bike I passed, even every Harley and metric cruiser, waved at me or responded when I waved. Everyone must have been in a happy, accepting mood. All those Harley riders waving back was starting to freak me out a little.

[muskrat]

the reason most Harley riders don't wave at you is because you're clipping at a pace of 150 or so 
I wave at EVERYONE, even those on scooters.

Weather is holding.  Looks to be a beautiful day Sunday.

Lisa do you have a link to a printable map for the route we're taking?

It could have changed, but this is the route I made with the group the 3 previous runs.....

Got no link with that last post Sam.   

This weekend will be a gametime decision. Boy kid coming home and might want to hang close. we'll see.

Who all is going on this ride? Post up!

Rule number 1 applies on this ride for sure.

Thanks to CJ and all last week for supplying the pics.

[Cher]

Weather will be good.  I'm am SOOO going on this ride.  I've added a northern loop that goes over the long bridge between Texas and Oklahoma (thanks sdlrodeo  ).

[TresGatos]

I foresee no problems keeping me out.

For anyone that may be undecided about this ride, here are some more details; once we're about an hour out of town and the roads open up a lot, we'll run this in two groups, a "Sport" group and a "Touring" group.  I'll lead the Touring folks - my pace will be 15 to 20 mph hour over.  The leader for "Sport" is YTBD.  The pace of this group, let's just say, is considerably faster  

Everyone meets back up at a "T" about thirty minutes later.  Debrief, then the two groups split again - with roughly 3 or 4 minutes between groups.

Meet-up once again in a small town, have a drink, etc., then we'll all ride into Muenster together.  

This sounds more complicated than it is but it allows everyone a chance to ride however the hell they want without worrying about getting left behind or dropping the pack.

Lunch is at Doc's Biergarten - they're running their Octoberfest specials this month so the food will be awesome (along with a very noce selection of German beer) - and weather permitting, we can eat on the patio    

Hope you can make it  [moto]
