Conroe to Edom for some PIE

Who's headed to Edom for the Pie Run from the Conroe area?

This post depresses me, makes me sad, bums me out, what a downer, boohoo. I guess I could follow in my truck!

Re: Conroe to Edom for some PIE

Tim,
What are you talking about? What is wrong with your bike?
Tony (Too) and Ed,
Thanks for the help today. Enjoyed it! On the way home, I realized how long overdue the tires were because the BB felt like a 600cc, instead of a battleship.

Tony

I was looking at the old rear tire and found several soft spots, you were riding on a may pop. I bet it does handle better. I was wondering how that new rubber was doing on the wet roads.

I was glad to help, I had a good time.

I had surgery on my right foot last Friday. Doing very well. It may be a little early to be ridding. If somebody wouldn't mind I could ride on the back with them.

We haven't nailed down any plans yet on KSU time but will probably meet at the Exxon at Teas & 45. Edom is east southeast of Dallas over toward Tyler and looks like about 160 miles up there.

If he rode pillion there would be plenty of cameras used! He's used to riding a Harley and I wouldn't want him getting overly excited on my VStrom sitting behind me.
