Today

Post by LonestarCBR » Sat May 10, 2014 12:33 pm

Well, took a ride down to Cranfils around through Proctor on some primo twisties and got the new rear scrubbed in edge to edge, finishing up with some Hard 8. Wish you all were here :idea:

Melinda and I just showed up at hard 8.

Like I told you a while back, I have a really good secret route (part if it anyway). Lots of curves (squiggly miles), question is, can you keep up??? :-)

Seriously, it'll be worth it, GET YOUR BIKE FIXED!!!! Maybe we can have a multiple-county ride while those more fortunate are having their multiple-state ride.

Bike is pretty much fixed. Just need to adjust one part, but it's good to go.

I find on my bike the nut behind the handlebars is usually most in need of adjustment. Glad to hear you're about ready to roll.

Registration is akin to brakes...you don't need it. :-)

Oh FFS. It's BIG BEND. Not Big Ben, not Big Bed.

Frackin morons. :D

Glad to hear you got your bike fixed Miles.

Lonestar, I'm 99% sure your route is not secret if it went anywhere near Cranfill's Gap. The club has been riding those twisties for a good long while.

I said part of it, and it's not near Cranfill's Gap, just part of what I ride on occasion, that may be a little farther west and north of Stephenville than what you guys normally do. Maybe you can come along with Miles and find-out.
