TOI/TT Texas Reunion @ Kerrville, Tx

We spent the 4th-8th October at Kerrville, Tx, to gather with friends of the Trike Owners Int'l/TrikeTalk group for riding the hills of near West Texas.  We arrived Wednesday afternoon to our usual gathering place, the Super 8 Motel.  (As always, click on a picture to enlarge it)


Many folks arrived Wednesday afternoon, then we planned out a ride for Thursday morning. Going first to Luckenback (Willie wan't there)





... and then we went on to the LBJ Ranch National Historical Site. We did a riding tour of the Ranch, then stopped at the LBJ residence, The Texas White House for a walking tour. Got to see the LBJ jet, old autos and the inside of the home. No pics allowed inside the house.

From the LBJ Ranch, we went to a good eating place in Stonewall, Tx, Lindig's Restaurant where the waitstaff was great in rearranging the tables for our unexpected group. 

Friday, Jerry (Gold Rush) led a ride to eat BBQ. We didn't make this ride, opting instead to check out some of the local campgrounds (for later use), going to eat apple pie & ice cream, then going to the StoneHenge II exhibit. The grounds there were full, local folks setting up for a week-end festival.

Saturday, we did a long ride, all of the 3-Twisted Sisters, a local & Texas tradition. The entire route was approx 220 miles along RR-337, RR-336 and RR-335. Lanora took few pics of the ride, as we've been there for many years running. But there are pics of the line-up, and the stop at Frio Canyon MC Stop.



And the best part of any group meet, is the evening BS sessions. Given another day, we could have solved all the world's problems. 



Gotta go, things never settle around here. Lanora's riding with her sister to visit their Mother for a few days. I'll go pick her up in a couple of weeks...  or ... sometime.
