Sounds like fun. Unfortunately I will be in Houston this weekend.

You gonna make the ride on the 7th?

 

[03Firebolt9R]

Yes, I am planning to make that one. Do we have a confirmed headcount yet?

 

[Marc]

I'm in for the 7th. So that's one.

 

[SilveradoTX]

I don't think we have a confirmed head count yet.

For those who are going, or possibly going, shoot me a PM and I will start putting a list together.

augustus_01, since we'll be up in your neck of the woods for lunch, any ideas on a good place to cool down and get some food before we ride Ida Rd./697?

 

[djs2k2]

Ride safe guys.

Two local places I would recommend:

http://tracks-restaurant.com/

http://mgburgers.net/

There's also a Mooyah Burger that just opened up - everyone I've talked to that's been there said its awesome. I haven't been there yet though.

I was headed home yesterday on I-75 and pulled up next to a red 2007 xb9r..... ya, traffic was moving that slow..... none of you guys was it?

I take it noone is up for a shorter ride in the am?

 

[augustus_01]

I'd be up for it if my wife didn't volunteer to work tonight.

 

[SilveradoTX]

I met someone back at the beginning of the year with a red XB9R, don't have any contact information.

I'm headed down to San Antonio in the morning for a wedding.

 

[LFTDJEEP]

Had a little date night with the wifey tonight. 93 outside but felt cool riding.

Nice PIC ^^^

I got out this evening too. Got my A* TZ-1 Reloaded perf jacket in Saturday and finally got around to trying it out. Was 97 when I started and got down to 92 by the time I got home. It's pretty sad when low 90's feels good.

Nice LFTDJEEP, My wife really likes riding on the back and I am suprised how much!
We did make it to Tioga Sat but were not able to follow the route, calls from our realtor and showing service diverted us going out there as well as coming back. Was still a good trip, just not as relaxing or scenic as it could have been.

 

[SilveradoTX]

Nice to see that some of you had a good weekend. [up]

Update on this weekends meet and ride. So far this is the headcount that I have.

Weather is looking good for Saturday. Under 100 degrees, light wind and no chance of rain. Never been to cars and coffee, but it seems you guys meet by the tents? And 8:30 ish?

 

[SilveradoTX]

I've never parked in the same place twice, but I'm going to try and get there early enough to grab a decent space. I'm planning on parking as close as I can to the main lane that goes through the parking lot; this should hopefully help us all find each other. As far as the time, around 8:30-ish should be fine.

Just as a reminder to everyone, the plan is to be kickstands up at 10am and be on our way. We'll stop in Sherman for lunch and then ride 697/Ida Rd.

Is everyone ok with taking the Dallas North Tollway to Preston Rd.? I don't want to make people pay for tolls if they would prefer not to.

 

[03Firebolt9R]

I am ok with taking the tollway.

 

[Lazerface]

where are you stopping in sherman?

i might be able to swing by and ride for a bit. planning on working on the car on saturday, but just seeing when and where you might be stopping in sherman. (im not far in little elm)
