Anyone know about one of those excellent end-of-year M$ deals on streets and trips? I can't bring myself to pay retail when i know they do rebate deals that end up costing the buyer something like $10 (or nothing) when i know the only reason to use it is so i can share files with folks that don't have anything else.

Worst Buy had it for $14.00 after rebates in last Sunday's circular. Local store was out of stock even though their computer showed five on hand.

they did that to me once with an external USB hdd. i was the first person in the door the morning of the sale and they said they'd sold them all the day before. i asked the manager who a personal had to blow to get an item at sale price before it went on sale?

when she couldn't find any in their computer system anywhere, she went away and came back about 10 minutes later with a different brand, larger capacity, and extended the sale price to me. SCORE!

Did someone say hooters at one? MSB at nine thirty? Saturday? I guess old people need their bran/fiber. :lol:

Something like that I think errr yes, where is that bran. But 9.30 comes before 1. I think. No wait a second - 1 comes before 9, shoot just see you there!

Smile when you say that pardner. We seasoned Texans take our movements seriously. Roll call 9:30 Sat. :beee:

I expect we will be looking at sunday depending on the weather tomorrow. I can't really complain about any rain we get. We need it pretty badly. We will be planing future rides though. Near and Far.

DFW owners, come on down. Good chance to meet and share experiences and routes and the FJR generally.

I WILL get some kind of ride Sunday. I hope. Maybe PK or that direction at least.

See you there, maybe the rain will have moved through. Looks pretty wet untill around 10 am.

 

[Fallen Jim Rides again]

Headed to Grapevine and Main Street Bakery.

Radar Loop isn't looking too good. Rain in Mid Cities should last till noon with wind gusts to 40mph. Cage it is.

See you all there.

I'd continue with the fiber jabs but now we have some fair weather issues going on here. :lol:

 

[Fallen Jim Rides again]

Fair weather for sure.

Odot, (and anyone else) I think TripleTango and I are going to ride out to the Possum Kingdom area tomorrow. Haven't settled on meeting place and time yet, but will post it here when decided.

I expect the meeting place is likely to be in Springtown or Azle since it is on the way to PK coming from the northern part of the MetroPlex and eazy to find. Will also post directions to meeting place for anyone who needs them.

 

[panthercity]

Or, find a way to pick up FM 4 around Santo and ride North.

Let me know what the plan is and I'll see if the burn ban violaters will give me some riding time tomorrow.

Panther City, I will post in the morning a time and exact location to meet. Likely in S'town or Azle as Tripletango is coming from Carrolton and have route that plays to the northern start.

Like this:

But if we wanted to do the best part of hwy 4 we could opt for this:

I'm ready for either. B)

Watch this space in the morning or pm for phone#

Should be a beautiful day, and a great route. I'll be watching for FJRs.

 

[tripletango]

Best if I meet you around PK at lunch as I am in Rockwall. I can take the 455 route across and continue on 380 to PK.

We could meet in Springtown

What time are you leaving out of Rockwall? Might meet in Graham or Jacksboro if you are coming 380.

No one else has posted (yet) so we can suit ourselves.

 

[Fallen Jim Rides again]

Just off the phone with tripletango. Meeting in Jackboro 11:30 ~ 12 at the Green Frog. Anyone else? Post soon if need to meet else where. I'm on the road in 1 hour.
