To Big Bed, er, Big Bent, er, I mean the BIG BEND
I'm psycho, I mean sick, I mean STOKED!
Who's going? Just imagine a week away from it all, nothing to care about except where the next gas station is, and in an area your cell phone is just about guaranteed not to work.
Who can resist that?

Hey, you throw in guns with a ride, and I can't resist.
Seriously, it was good seeing you again. How's the leg? I'm betting it was pretty sore after Saturday.

I never have good luck, Lead, so you'll definitely have your bike by then. I need to work on making some mp3 discs because I don't think there are many radio stations out there.

N E one from the north headed down on the 3rd.?
Here’s a plan to work on.
Leave BIG BEND(early) ride over to PRESIDIO (170), get gas, head north to (67) to MARFA, then (17) to FORT DAVIS , (17) to BALMORHEA ( this is a kool ride), hop on I-20 over to KENT, south on 118 ( another kool ride) into the Mc DONALD OBSERVERTORY, and ride to the top.( highest road in TEXAS.) Then to ALPINE(118) (another nice ride) and APLINE has a ,step back, yes. a BLUES BAR.
Our buttz will be sore by the time we get back to da BIG BENT!
BTW BESSIE may be out of the shop Thursday.

I guess he lost my phone number I gave him for Junction, huh?
Lead, I am thinking of heading out early (Maybe Tuesday) and farting around. That looks like a good ride. I've been to the observatory and Alpine, but never saw the blues bar. They do have a diner in Apline! :1079: It is a long ride. I did the 118 loop around Fort Davis, and it's a nice road. If we reverse it, it might be dark by the time we get to Marfa and we may get to see the Marfa lights!
Alpine is 120 miles from the campground

Yeah, I kind of figured that. Bummer, dude, I was looking forward to camping with you. Oh well, there will be other times.
You might want to wait until it's broke in before red-lining it on the dyno.
Looks like it could be just two of us unless the wandering pair makes it back in time.
