Muskrat-

Do you and your wife ride separately or is she a passenger?  I might be interested in going for a cruise.  I'm in Plano.

Edit: Replace wife with girl.  Wouldn't want to make you seem something that you are not.  ;)

Oh boy, +1 for the Easties...

Hubby & I are also up in Frisco.  He currently has a HM1100, I am here just by association on a Triumph.

Hope to ride later, currently trying to get caught up with work after someone quit last week and left a bunch of stuff undone.

Hubby, Webspoke, may be looking for someone to ride with if I can't get caught up soon.

Whoa, right here before something is said to start another war. We westies are the same lovable group of Ducatisti as the easties are. Fact is anyone in need on both sides of the Trinity would be willing to help out the other. All the banter is in good fun and any comment should be given a wide birth. This is one of the most dynamic groups in the U. S. bar none. You will not find a better more committed bunch anywhere.

Please take some time and get to know some of the the peeps on the board and you will see what I mean.

The Commish has spoken.

FWIW, I always ride with my DL at least, and 99% of the time I have my "road ID" (usually for jogging) in my pocket with contact info, blood type, DOB, etc.

Pics or it didn't happen (in this case, you wish, right?).

Seriously though - I didn't get to see the carcas.  You already had it in the coffin.  Let's see the remains.  I'm kind of morbid that way... in an Office Space kind of way.

Zack and Catie, thanks for riding along and offering the party casa as well. [drink]

By the way, my bad for leaving without you guys, it was more of a brain fart actually, I could've stayed with the crew until the turn off. Sorry about that. It worked out well for me though as I got to get in a 4 mile run when I got home before dark.
Note to self: Eat something before the ride. Man, that snickers and Starbucks Double shot sure were tasty as was the Beef Jerky.
Great time, nice sweepers, decent pavement (tar snakes were snakey in some parts), Beautiful scenery for sure, glad the pictures worked out. I brought my camera, but when I saw his, I thought, well, I'll leave my little cybershot under the seat. Then, when the incident-that-must-not-be-mentioned occured, I sort of wished I took a few snapshots. It was great meeting all of you and I look forward to more rides to come.
