It didn't get off to a good start. Rain and a very slippery roads took it's toll on MurocRider(Steve Harvey). He wasn't hurt and seemed in good spirits.

Fantastic pictures as always!

 

We had a great time. I'm convinced it's Kerrville that's cursed with rain. It was raining when we pulled out of the hotel parking lot, but by the time we reached Fredericksburg things had dried up and were looking good for the rest of the trip. Managed to get in a little more good riding on our way up to Austin for lunch with some friends, then slabbed it back up I-35 to Dallas.

 

I'll have my pics posted up later tonight.

Wow, just rode with Steve a few weeks ago on Steves1150+50's ride up the Cali coast. Sorry to hear this, he looks fine. He had a very nice 04 1150, hope it also survives. Was 1bmwfan on the ride? Even though Steve looks like he didn't need it, I'm sure Phil had his back.

 

I'll be waiting to hear Steve's description and also what gear he was wearing.

 

Thanks for the pictures Whip.

 

By the way, I'm so "IN" for THC next year!!!! thumbsup.gif

Not sure what to say at this point other than I'll have a chat with the shop tomorrow and then I'm sure I'll be speaking to my insurance adjuster...

 

ATGATT paid off Friday. I've got a 1 inch scrape on my elbow and a very slight bruise on my knee--truely wish I could say the same for my RT. If it's not a total loss it's right on the bubble.

 

One second I'm following AZkaisr through a left turn, the next split second I'm an observer of my own mishap...watching the left mirror snap off, then the left foot peg, then she catches, does a high side to the right side, and settles in the dirt/grass/gravel. No warning whatsoever, never even felt a bobble. As Philby would say, I'm just gutted.

 

A huge thanks to all who lended assistance, and a special thanks to Whip for making arrangements and Mrs Whip for trailering my bike to the shop.

 

One more special thanks to 1BMWFAN who, after all this, tossed me the key to his ST and, along with AZkaisr, "forced" me to ride Saturday.

 

More to follow...

See ya next week. wave.gif

I am glad you are OK from your "get off". Bummer man. Hopefully the bike can be repaired and you will be riding it in Florida come June/July. Great pics from all who submitted them. It is always wonderful "living the weekend" with those who made the trip.

Great pics and report!

Steve (MurocRider), I'm very glad you were not hurt in your accident. Good luck with the bike situation! I hope it works out for you. I really enjoyed riding with you. (All except for that slide job.)

 

 

After lunch the Lawman insisted on goin to the Texas Wild Seed Farm.

Lawman seemed to be very excited about the seed farm. He was heard on several occasions stating that he had come all the way from Florida to see the seed farm.

Seems to me that Lawman's fellow Floridians ought to do Lawman a big favor and take him on a tour of some seed farms out Florida way. It seems he has been terribly, terribly deprived......

The Lawman....Florida????..confused.gif..

 

With all the fuss Lawman was making he convinced me that he had actually travelled some distance blush.gif.

Sorry Floridians dopeslap.gif.

Sorry Texans dopeslap.gifdopeslap.gif.

 

On the other hand, I am sure that Lawman would love to see whatever seed farms there are in Florida so y'all please help him out ..... tongue.gif.

Was that LEO the infamous 'Officer Sanchez'? Heard he gave several performance awards last year. Thankfully, I didn't meet him.

Glad the rally was a success. I went to Vegas for a 2-day camp with Code instead, and in a way, am glad I did. Wouldn't have enjoyed riding with all that rain. And at least I met ONE forum member: David Baker. Will try to make it next year. Take care.

As usual--good write up Whip. You and that wonderful wife of yours really made this event special for our visitors and the Texans alike.

 

Five minutes after Steve's excusion you mobilized the truck and trailer--very cool.

 

You still owe me that ride we started in December.

 

Talk to you soon.
