Myself and another fine gentlemen around here have been working on some routes around the state. Simply put its a five day, four night, four hundred miles a day tour of texas.
Day one would be to west texas.
Day two is to san antonio.
Day three is to the gulf.
Day four is to east texas.
Day five is heading home.
How many would be interested in something like that next fall instead of a hc trip?

Sounds like fun.  Have any dates in mind - I'm guessing that part of the ride would be over a weekend?  What kinda bikes are y'all riding?  Mine's an ST3, so I won't be flogging it (OK, AND I'm 64 in a couple of weeks).   Shocked  And I'll need to put new rubber on before we launch.

I betch RickMillerTX would sign up, too.

Sounds like a great ride for people who can do it waytogo

Beyond my abilities though.

 Grin Not that I ever want to be known for agreeing entirely with Muskrat or The Svoloch - but West Tx and Tx Gulf are kind flat and straight ( like my ex-wife, NO fun at all ) AND it all depends on the T-Shirt created for the trip!  bacon but seriously - I'm interested if I can put that many days together.  Seems like Hill Country & E Tx Piney woods could make kinda a nice figure 8 trip of sorts.

Maybe I'll have a logo by then.

There are sections of the gulf coast that actually aren't too bad.  I'd like to hear what kind of route you've got and maybe some of the Houston contingent can join you on parts of it

I'm sure you've already worked a few slices of bacon into the grand scheme of things, right?

Umm... With the other member of the club being maniacally vegan, I may have to fit that into the design subliminally.

remember this isnt the h/c trip where we go just to ride abunch of twisties. it's a big loop coering different areas. this is the route. we arent doing any figure 8's or crazy shit like that unless you wanna come up with your own. then you can post it up, lead and do the logistics involved.
