No, nothing like that. My comment was directed to the fact that for the last couple of years they don't offer anything larger than 2X.  This year is no exception.

Just four weeks away boys, get your bikes ready!

If any of you have 100cc or smaller "toys", bring em for the Fun Run on Friday afternoon.

And get ready to ROCK Friday night to the Toadies!

Hitting the Apex is a great film!  They did not release it stateside, so I had to download it.  I can't wait to see it on the big screen out there under the stars!

One week to go boys and girls. 

Pecantree Steve is working in NM and cannot make it.

"VFR Jeff" from DFW is coming Fri afternoon, the VFR is gone but says he is bringing his GL cafe!

I plan to be there by 11am Fri to claim the camp spot, hopefully the same one as last year.

See you there!

Why not?   Could be quite a challenge and may be faster than those "antique bikes"?!!

Well, the forecast actually shows a chance of rain Wednesday and Thursday clearing up for the weekend. Mostly.
It's so damn dry I welcome the rain no matter what.

The forecast does not look good. Thunderstorms likely...

Damn.  That looks like a wet camping trip.

We're contemplating trailering in.  I've never trailered anywhere.

We've decided not to risk it and stay dry.  I'm still not 100% convinced it's going to rain as bad as they're predicting.  I guess I'm in denial.  Super bummed I'm going to miss out.  I've tried to convince my buddy that we could  still head out tomorrow if the forecast looks better, but he's already changed his plans.

Update:  it's still on!   

We don't care if it rains.  Joe, Sean and Marty left DFW today and are camping in Lago Vista tonight, will leave for Luchanbach first thing.

ChrisP is leaving Conroe area at 8am, Bryan at 3pm. 

I need to fix my boat dock first thing, then will head down (motor for boat lift fried, don't want it floating around during a storm). 

Bring rain gear!

I will be there but I may ride the truck instead of the bike. :(
They are now predicting biblical rain totals for the central Texas area Friday and Saturday.
I'll believe it when I see it..
