Brian, I'm glad the tire saga came out OK. And if you had lunch, changed a tire, and then made it all the way to Van Horn for the night, you are truly an Iron Butt. It was good to finally meet you.

I ate two burgers in San Angelo. Aside from breakfast at the Koffee Kup at 6 am, that was it for the day.

Anywho, just over 450 miles for me. I can REALLY tell I don't do days like that much anymore because I was SORE when I got home! :doh:

I had a great time on the Pie Run! I enjoyed the ride there and back home. It was wonderful seeing everyone again! Here is a short video of my day, please excuse clumsiness at using this app as it something new I am trying and I have only used a couple of times so far.

If I fail to recognize anyone in this story please forgive me as it was not intentional, but if I fail to write things down they tend to disappear from my head. First, let me recognize kickstand-prophet (Drew), beemerless bob (Bob), gixxerjasen (Jasen), mitchntx (Mitch), dancing with curves...

Nice job, Marty. I've been learning Shotcut which isn't all that friendly. I'll have to download Relive & give it a try.

Well, that's purty cool!
 
Relive is pretty user friendly, after all I am a old fart learning new tricks? Its basically all automatic, the app does it all! You just to remember to start, stop/pause, take pics, can add comments on the pics(I didn't on this one, but found out later). Hard part for me was getting it off my iPhone(mobile only app) and onto my laptop(copied the link and emailed it to myself). Of course I probably could have used Tapatalk and done it all on my phone?

COLD... That is how the day started. Leaving Huntsville at 7:00am with Joe fink and Jeff Hansen, the lowest I saw was 31 F and it did not get over 34 F until after the first 90 miles or so, only then creeping up to the low 40s until after we passed Waco. It was in the low 50s when we arrived in Hico and warmed up to 64 by the time I left a little after 1:00pm. It stayed right around that temp all the way home. The wind really picked up once we passed Waco and it stayed that way for me all the way home. I didn't get any pics, but there was a lot of fog in the low areas and different layers floating around. North of Huntsville as we were coming up on the Ferguson Unit on FM 247, the lowlands near the Trinity River bottoms were covered in thick fog to our East and the sun was coming up, hitting it and the layers, lighting it all up with a cool glow. I should have stopped, but my fingers were already frozen to the grips :-P We did stop in Centerville at Woody's for some snacks and to warm up. I had some of those chemical hand warmers in the breast pockets of my mid layer jacket. They barely got luke warm. Very disappointing! Then I noticed that they expired in Nov 2017 :lol2: It wasn't so bad after we left Woody's.

I never counted bikes. Some folks show up early, eat, and leave. They just don't hang around to kick tires and shoot the breeze with folks :shrug: By the time I got back out to the parking lot, some of them were already heading home. I left around 1:00pm and had a nice meandering ride home that included some fun dirt roads here and there. I only took one pic at a low water crossing that wasn't much this time. Last time it was flowing pretty good and I had Sarah on the back of my GS. Anywho, just over 450 miles for me. I can REALLY tell I don't do days like that much anymore because I was SORE when I got home! :doh:

LOTS of pics! (will be attached momentarily as they are on my phone...)
