Any riders interested accompanying me and several other members down to Medina Highpoint Resort (Koyote Ranch) for the Texas Gathering are welcome! I will go the speed limit or just under so don't be timid if you're not used to riding in groups. We want to arrive SAFELY. This is not formal, it'll be easy-going and FUN! This year we're again taking the back road down Hwy 16.
We'll have several cages if you want to take items that you don't want them on your bikes. I'm sticking a cooler and some fold up chairs in too! Gimme a hollar so I can meet you. I'll give you my addy on the phone or via text message....
WX: Variable clouds with scattered showers and thunderstorms, mainly in the afternoon. High near 80F. Winds ESE at 10 to 15 mph. Chance of rain 50%.
Notes:
1. Arrive at staging on time and topped off.
2. PLEASE MAKE YOURSELF FAMILIAR WITH THE ROUTE IN CASE WE GET SPLIT UP! Please check and make sure your RVs can navigate this route.

3. If you plan to join in along the route, best thing to do is join us at one of our stops. The travel times are listed in the paragraph above. Just take the KSU time from Copperas Cove add the driving time and about 15- 20 min for each stop, then be there! If you join in on the road, BE SAFE! This is a long ride and there is plenty of time to catch up and join in. Same goes for any cages who cut into our group - let em - we have time.
4. Bring water for yourself and a buddy and dress with consideration of the weather conditions.
Hope to see y'all there!
