I hate to do this but I think lack of interest in the OST meet for Oct 15th is dwindling. How about we start over? The 22nd of Oct is the only weekend when I can make it and one of the only ones where there is not another bike gathering (Harleys excepted, I dont keep track of them.)

And who was at the OST this morning? (Sun the 2nd) I was there with wife in car but LOTS of bikes and one '05 FJR. I didn't see anyone I recognized and the bike left shortly after we got there, never did see the rider.

 
I can't make the 22nd date. Already have some plans for that weekend since I had blocked out the 15th for the ride based on all of the prior enthusiasm. What happened to everybody that said they were in for the 15th--is it premature to consider this dead?

An alternative for me would be 10/29. The next weekend, 11/5, is the HSTA gathering that I think we were trying to avoid and 11/12 is the Cycle World International Motorcycle Show in Houston that I'm planning on attending. Beyond that, 11/19 would be okay and then we're into Thanksgiving on 11/26.

Since some, no idea how many, are planning on the 15th, let me rephrase this to

Another OST meet on 10/22/05. 9:00 am (place gets crowded fast on Sat/Sun in the fall so I'll get there early to get us seats).

Would like an idea on how many might show so can have a big enough table!

 
The 22nd of Oct is the only weekend when I can make it and one of the only ones where there is not another bike gathering (Harleys excepted, I dont keep track of them.)
The weekend of the 22nd is the weekend of the Texas Two Step Rally. Sorry guys.

I'll be missing a hill country ride because of this prior obligation.

 
I'm still up for the 15th if anybody else is.

The 22nd is bad, I gotta work that night.

the 29th is a possibility for me.

I'm still planning on going on Friday the 14th and coming back on Sunday.

Mike--where are you going to stay? I need to make a motel reservation.

Hello Daniel, Scott--are you guys still thinking about going?

Barry

 
Barry,

I have a room booked for Thur-Sat at the

Econo Lodge

2145 Sidney Baker (Hwy 16)

Kerrville Texas 78028

830-896-1711

This is just north of the YO Ranch hotel, across the intersection and where I stayed last November when we were there. Average rate of $55/night.

I asked for twin double beds in case you want to share the room costs with me for the nights you are there so you are welcome to meet me there.

I am still planning on going up on Thursday and leaving Sunday.

My cell phone number is 832-248-6502.

Lemmeknow.

Mike

 
All,

Got a room for Thursday night and checking out Sunday morn.

I leave Thursday morning from Lake Jackson and will ride up Highway 36 towards I-10.

I asked for a twin queen-beds room.

If you dare, I snore really loud! Bring earplugs. :sleepy:

 
Mike, Scott:

I can't leave until about mid-day on Friday, so I'll be in Kerrville late afternoon. I went ahead and got a room at the Econo Lodge for Saturday and Sunday nights, so you guys can can share a room if you like.

I have your cell phone number Mike and mine is 281-330-5256, so let's touch base when we get out there and get together for dinner Friday night to plan a ride for Saturday.

Weather report looks good--low of 53, high of 83, partly cloudy, and low humidity. Sounds like great riding weather to me! Anyone else interested?

Barry

 
so we are all together on this, let's plan to meet and be ready for breakfast at 0900 at the Old Spanish Trail (OST) restaraunt on the main drag in Bandera on Saturday morning.

Weather forecast is looking good for this weekend so let's ride!!

Non-FJR riders are welcome but if you are on a Harley we have to take a vote first unless your name is Michelle Smith.

Mike

 
Sorry guys... got 2 other committments this weekend (one with my youngest daughter, one with my labrador retriever (hunt test)).

Have fun!

 
Mike,

I will call you later today.

Will there be HD riders there with our group? Michelle Smith?

 
Daniel,

You know you are going to miss out riding out to the OST, but you have fun doing what you have to do. :D

Priorities......yes...... I know all about those. <g>

 
Hope you guys have a great ride, and be safe!!! If I happen to see Ms. Smith I will send her your way. But I have the idea she is more for looks than rides. :rolleyes: Kyote

 
guys, I guess I'm coming down friday afternoon.

Mike, I'll take you up on your room offer. I'll make sure to have some mexican food and german beer for dinner :)

Barry, Are you coming from SA? What time do you plan to arrive and what time is dinner?

Sanity check- you guys are all booked at the same hotel, right?

so, who's all in? the weather looks good. mid 50s to mid 80s, and low chances for precipitation :)
