I almost didn't make this Pie Run.... Stayed up way too late processing a clients images and on four hours of sleep hit snooze a lot this morning. To the point I said "I'm staying in bed". Then I just thought that was silly, got up, geared up and headed out.
A very quick blast out 290 through Johnson City, Fredericksberg, then 16 South Kerrville and then 173/2828 to Medina - I had great weather for all of it except South of Kerrville and on into Medina from the South. Drizzly mist was the order of the day at that point.
Arrived at The Apple Orchard and a couple folks were already there. A table was secured and the rest of the troops arrived. I think there were about 14 or 15 of us. Great conversations were had, some lunch and then now what? "Hey - let's all go to Vanderpool to the Motorcycle Museum"!
So out from Medina we went. Just a couple miles down 337 I spied these hoodlums.....
Fred
(fred can be such a squid at times...
)
Leon
Rusty
Carolyn
Jeff
Robert
Bob and Thee Saint
We arrived at the museum and feasted our eyes on the goodies inside. I opted for the details this time around... Here's a few snaps:
I think I could ride a Whizzer...
Ever wonder your fuel pressure? (or is it volume?) Try to read this dial...
Old school pannier
When we were done with the museum, Gina (SpiritAtBay) figured out how to convince Rusty (Woodbutcher) to get her GPS working better. (after all, he IS the master as GPS technology)
Not naming names, but somebody really should tell this rider to peel the sticker off first.
There were some pretty cool posters hanging on the walls and in the mens restroom I might have to try and re-create with a newer/modern twist.
...and finally for those who just want 'different'
And with that, the gathering was about over
Carolyn headed out for fuel with Gina chasing her, Bob and Thee Saint left ahead of everyone for Hunt for fuel which is where Rusty, Fred and I headed. A really nice meandering along the river into Hunt, then on into Ingram, Kerrville and Fredericksberg where I split off back through Johnson City and on into Austin. Right at 336 miles for me. OK burger, better company/conversation. Till next time -
