          No DragonRider?

          Danny, you will be missed tomorrow. How dare they preempt a TeXSive ride with work! Those Bastards!

          Hmmm, Danny, Don't you feel a fever coming on? You sound really sick, and you really need to "stay home" to recover and not infect any of your co-workers!

          Well, you and the dragon will be with us in spirit.

          We will have to just do another ride between now and the Fall TeXSive run to make up for your absence.

          CU again, buddy!

            Well, I tried the, "My spleen hurts." thing...but the boss ain't buying it. I've even got symptoms! With the great riding weather out there my hands are twitching...and I'm kind of involuntarily making "vroom vroom" noises!

            Y'all (technical term) be safe!

              Doesn't soud like a problem

              You know, if you leave from work at 3 you can make it to 249 & 45 on N. side of Houston by about 6:15 -6:30 (you will have to push it a little) and ride down with Dmac, Skippy, Hippie Dave & I. That way you can still be in Galveston for breakfast between 8 & 8:30.

              If you can't hang, sorry you can't come. We'll miss you. Who's going to ride sweep?

                Great ride!

                TeXSives, another great ride is in the history books. Thanks to all those who came out to ride with us, and those who just stopped by to dine. It was good to see old friends and make some new ones.

                I spoke to Robert last night and he is doing fine. He said that he is going to go to the Dr. this week just to be safe and get checked out. He is already looking forward to riding with us in the fall.

                A special thanks to Greg, who stepped up to be my Sweep rider. Great job buddy. You had no idea how exciting riding sweep could be huh?!

                And Rich? I expect to see your new Nickname on the site soon!

                I will be posting a full Ride Report in the next few days. Keep and eye out.

                See you guys and gals in the fall.

                Ride Safe.

                    really sucks i was only 90 miles away from the starting point but house repair had to come first.. I was thinking about ya'll as i looked at the nice weather and and the wrecking bar and sledge hammer... Atleast SWMBO did say i could put a ramp on the end of the porch so i could get the bike on it for repairs...lol She couldn't believe she said it...lol

                    Glad ya'll had a good ride.. hopefully i can make another ride soon... even if I have to ride Dads Harley again...

                      Great day ...

                      I'll get the pic's posted soon. Glad the hear Robert feeling better, I did NOT take a pic of the road side ant hill!

                      Sure glad my Honda CB900F kept up with the "Big Boys".

                      I got my XJ running Sunday afternoon; the GM ignition really worked. So now its time to add the fuel injection system. So, the next time we meet, I'll ride a "real" motorcycle.

                      Sure good to meet the Texas gang. Be good, ride safe. Stan

                        My butt is still sore!!!! Nice ride guys. I have swore off sprite for a while. Battery started to give it up about 50 miles outside of Austin, thank god for my nifty LED voltmeter. Made it in with no major problem. Glad to hear Robert is doing well and is ready to ride again. Wayne, thanks for all your work to get another sucessful ride together, and thanks for the discount tickets you sent me. Will be ready to go again in October.

                                Thanks, Wayne!

                                It was both an honor and a pleasure to step in and sweep for the TeXSives. And yes, it was eXSiting! Don't worry Danny, you are still #1 sweep and I will only fill in, in your absence.

                                I was happy to retrieve the saddlebag lid for DT and am glad to hear that Robert is fine. Thanks to Tinman for securig a safe conduct home for Robert and Linda. He sacrificed the rest of the ride to see that fellow TeXSives were safe. You DA Man, Tinman!

                                I had such a good time with these fine folks both old and new. It truly satisfies the soul to see 10 bikes and good friends riding ahead of me. I wish we could do this every weekend.

                                Thanks to all of you for such a great experience, again! And I would like to especially thank Wayne for organizing another ride for us.

                                I will submit a ride report and link to my pics soon.
