Adventure Rider Breakfast Series Calendar
A Texas Adventure Riders Association
San Antonio Chapter Event
Come to breakfast at 9a,
meet and talk with other like minded individuals. Some will also go for a
ride afterward, others ride home, get out on your bike and join us for either or both.
The goal of these breakfasts are to encourage the adventure / dual sport community to get out and ride, share knowledge, information and see what others are planning and doing, etc.

Post Breakfast Ride Information
If anyone is up for a post breakfast ride see the optional route map below.
The route is a no host self-guided GPS ride, as the ride is self-guided
join a group or lead one.
The post Adventure Breakfast rides are all about fun, camaraderie, being safe and
forming riding groups so no one rides alone, especially on back roads. Some groups will focus on completing the route, others will just relax and ride to their cut off time then break off and head home.
*You determine your start time, groups usually take off before 10am.
A
group size of 4 - 6 ride is optimal, with about a maximum of 8, grouping by bike size or desired pace is also beneficial if possible.
Rain date information will be posted on the Thursday before the ride if necessary.
Route information & Map
*Disclaimer - I build the routes on my computer using the Roads of Texas map book as my guide which is the best and most accurate I have used, but not perfect, and Google maps. So the route may not be 100% accurate. I do not pre-ride the route, it's an adventure for me also. Road closures, legal status, conditions and routing of county roads can change. If in doubt, turn around and find another route -
DO NOT trespass. If a landowner says you are on private property,
don't argue, politely ask for directions to get back to a public road.
What to expect on the route.

Ride plan & Rider etiquette
For those that join my group - When I lead a group I don’t stop for lunch in a restaurant, I'm in the office all week so when I'm on a ride I want to spend as much time as possible in nature. I plan a stop about midway out in the country for snacks or a sandwich I bring with me, then of course there are the planned fuel stops.
I stop at every corner without a clear / obvious direction to continue and wait for the entire group to make sure the last rider sees the proper way to go,
there is NEVER a need to ride above your comfort level to keep up, if I'm leading I won’t leave you, I encourage riders to spread out to avoid the dust. The
daisy chain method also works well, especially when its extremely dusty to keep the group even more spread out,
the rider in front of the other makes sure the rider behind makes the corner and so on until the sweep rider makes the corner. As long as each rider in front the other takes responsibility for the rider behind no one gets lost.
Please tell someone in the group if your plans change and you decide to break off from the group, that prevents you being searched for.
Road closures, legal status, conditions and routing of county roads is constantly changing. If in doubt, turn around and find another route -
DO NOT trespass. If a landowner says you are on private property,
don't argue, politely ask for directions to get back to a public road.
Safety
AGATT
Having your
emergency contact information on you and having that information readily available is critical. This is important not just for group rides but everyday. Even though you may have a buddy along on the ride you may get separated on the road.
At minimum:
Name
Your street
Your town, state, zip code
Driver's license # & state
Emergency contact
Emergency phone
I taped mine on the bottom of the visor of my dual sport helmet, I also taped another on the back side of my fairing near the dash. The important thing is that it is easy for anyone to find.
Adventure / dual sport roads are disappearing due to pavement or closures, respect landowners and other road users, slow down and ride quietly when passing, people, vehicles, animals, homes, etc.
Welcome to the Two Wheeled Texans community! 
Feel free to hang out and lurk as long as you like. However, we would like to encourage you to 
, YEP, what ever it takes to herd the pig down the lane.
