Harumphhhhhh!

Is it really slacking on Saturday?

 

[2WheelNut]

Is it really slacking on Saturday?

What's the difference when you are retired? Isn't every day Saturday for you?

 

[pacman]

I've been slacking all week, but I might be able to stretch it into Saturday. I'm a strong maybe.

 

[duchess]

Is it really slacking on Saturday?

I’d say yeah, ESPECIALLY if you’re retired. And if you’re not, you got all those honeydos to slack on or off or...

 

[RT_Slim]

Will be heading home in Saturday from Amarillo after a trip out to Utah and Colorado. I'd have to drive at dark thirty to make Loco Coyote in time. Will instead turn south toward home in Austin. Slack on.

 

[Zephyr]

Mary, thanks for keeping the slacker rides going in spite of the warm days. Slacking year around, shows how dedicated to slacking we are.

I'll be out of town Saturday but looking forward to next one.

 

[Zonie]

Strong maybe.

 

[Vor-Tex]

See y’all in Bluff Dale.

 

[LYNYRD]

I’m still bikeless but need a little road trip. The missus and me just might make 11 at Loco. Sure need a big o burger and rings!

 

[Jarrett]

Not sure I'm in for lunch, but I'd like to catch the pre ride.

I'll plan on meeting in Bluff Dale.

 

[pacman]

I'm going to do this route out of Burleson if anyone wants to join in. All paved I think. Ignore the time estimate, it'll be more like 2.5 hrs. Furkot is always way off on time.

I'll be at the QT in Burleson at 8 for coffee, depart at 8:30.

I'm going to leave Waxahachie around 7am and take the winding south route up to Bluff Dale.

 

[Dahveed]

I wish I could, but I'm meeting a guy in Temple to sell the XSR on Saturday. Enjoy and ride carefully...

4 hours to do 100 miles? I bet you'll shave at least an hour off that. Probably more like an 1.5 hours off it.

Yup Furkot is notoriously slow on it's time estimates.

 

[Jarrett]

Gravel or no gravel on the Bluff Dale to Loco Coyote route?

 

[duchess]

No gravel, this time, for the faint of heart.

 

[Jarrett]

I luvs me some gravel, but my riding buddy not so much.

 

[Ron Stromer]

You kids have fun with the pirates!

 

[TXDaveski]

Thanks for letting me crash at your lunch table! I wasn’t sure where I would be at 11 so didn’t give you a heads up, sorry, but it all worked out. Sounds like the ride from Bluffdale was fun. I enjoyed the twisty bits of 51, 205, 1004, and 1005 going and coming - thanks for getting me outta the garage.

 

[pacman]

Thanks again for organizing Duchess. Had a great little ride today, and even better on the return leg with Jarrett and ? (sorry I didn't get your name!)

 

[Jarrett]

@duchess - thanks for setting it up and leading. That was fun.

@pacman - good to ride with you.

Everyone else that was there, nice riding and having lunch with y'all.

 

[pacman]

@Jarrett that was a blast! The Big Blue Streak isn't in it's happy place on the rough patches but we got through. It's definitely time for something with more suspension.
