A couple of us in North Texas are going on a ride on Saturday if anyone is interested. We are thinking of one or two options:

1) Meet in Gainsville, ride to Arbuckle Wilderness near Ardmore, Oklahoma. (Assuming enough people are interested)

2) Meet in Allen with Maxim Honda and ride with them.

Please let me know through PM or you can email me at

Or reply to this thread.

I may be up for it. I am supposed to be picking up some Kury deep dish bezels on Friday. So if I can get those put on Friday night as well as another part I bought this week I should be good to go on Saturday. I will check in on Friday night here to see what the plans are.

Looks to be good weather for it!

VTX1300momma is supposed to meet me in Plano and then I think we are going to ride down to Gun Barrel City.

If you want to go please email me. Or make sure to check here for more details. If I don't know that you are coming then we won't know to wait.

VTXmomma and I are going to hash out the details and repost here.

CWICK I hope you can make it. Just let me know.

If I leave NC right now, I can just barely make it. Give me an extra 10 minutes?
Seriously - I'd love to ride through Texas but it will have to remain only a dream for now.

:choppersmHere is the plan if anyone is interested (courtisy VTXmomma)::choppersm

8:30 - Cycle Gear off Park and 75 on the South bound side of the freeway. It's just after the Steak N Shake in a 2 story brown brick building. From their we can hit the Quick Trip and top the tanks off. Don't look for the Quick trip as a marker, you won't find it. If you go under the bridge you've gone too far. I ride a titanium x and will park close to the service road so you will see me.

by 10:30 - Arrive at meet up place - We might even arrive earlier than this but I want to make sure we have time to take a break before the 4 hour ride. We'll need to gas back up at this point as well.

Once the official ride is over we'll take a quick break to grab a drink and get some feeling back in our backsides and then head back to Dallas.

If you ever make it this way let me know. We'll have to meet up and go for a ride. Have fun.

I'm from right outside of Dallas. This makes me homesick

Hey VTXMomma and aVrTsXe,

Looks like I will be in for the ride. Are you all still planning on meeting in Plano tomorrow morning? If so is 8:30 still the time? Let me know and I will meet you there. Looking forward to it. Will check back in here in a few hours.
