Title: Hard 8 BBQ in Coppell - THIS Sunday, October 11th, 1pm
Post by: Cher on October 05, 2009, 01:16:19 PM

So the last BBQ plan at Hard 8 was a no-go, HOWEVER, in looking at the extended forecast for this Sunday, October 11th, it would be a real pity to be stuck inside with a housefull of kids and only your AirSoft, fully-automatic Glock for protection.  

SO... in lieu of all that, come eat some bodacious BBQ with your outlaw biker buddies....

Or maybe just your Ducati buddies instead  ;D

Me and Alan will be there at 1pm.  Sounds like there are several other folks already interested so I hope you can make it too!

Here's the address (it's about 10 minutes northeast of DFW Airport):

Hard 8 BBQ
688 Freeport Parkway
Coppell, 75019

its like scuba diving, if you pee in your gear you'll feel toasty for awhile.

OK, peeing in your scuba gear has nothing to do with scooters or BBQ. Get your s#@t together people. [laugh]

Nice pics Dax! [thumbsup] Very nice turnout today. Wasn't quite the sunny 70+ degree day that I had hoped for but it certainly wasn't bad. At least we missed the rain and it wasn't hot! I had enough of the heat long ago now I am sick of the rain!! :P

Great collection of people and bikes and what was REALLY COOL was four of the crowd were women riders!! Not quite sure I have ever been to a DFW/DMF gathering where so many women riders attended. Two Monsters, a 999 and a Triumph 675. Pretty damn neat!! [clap] Also, good to meet atomemphis/Josh at long last. Glad Brad made it with his Motion999 in tow... very cool! [moto]

Thanks to all that showed. Beats sitting at home watching the Cowboys any day! [laugh] We need to stop doing the Hard 8 BBQ thing just once a year. October is nice and all but there are other months in the year when we can do this again! [popcorn] [bacon] [beer]

what we should do is pull into Strokers on a Sunday with the Harley folks there to show them what "fast" twins look and sound like.  Trust me, it's like flies on shyat when they see the bikes.

With a few more gals in the group looking at picking up thier first bike this trend looks like it will continue.   [thumbsup]

Good seeing everyone today, good food, and a great ride in the cool weather.  A good excuse for some day end coffee...   [coffee]

If we get to twelve can we do a calendar? "Ladies of the DFWM"
[laugh]

I've never had a bad lunch at Hard8. I usually come out of there with a belly stuffed to the gills and today was no exception. Each time I go I get a little better at ordering the right amount and not overdoing it but damn I'm still full.

Brads Motion 93 was definitely bad-ass. me want.  [bow_down]


Good to see everybody!  [thumbsup]

I remember the first time we did this a couple of years ago. I know Wiwa's b-day is the 20th and we were kinda celebrating his great birthday gift to himself... his first Monster!! [clap] As I have always said, who better to get the perfect birthday gift than the person having the birthday!!! My brother's spin on that rule is always get something for a birthday present that you can borrow and use at a latter date. Of course that sounds like something my brother would say! :P

Again, great meet up today! Had lots of fun catching up with folks. We need to expand our get together locations and do them more frequently. Like the good old days. Nice to see the old DMF group getting together again. Hopefully the hard times have past and we can get back to normal. [thumbsup] [beer]

Bad economy, belt tightening, job stuff, lack of job stuff, family demands, having to sell bikes, more bad economy, ie. hard times... nice to put that stuff on the shelf for a few hours and just hang with friends and talk scooters. We used to do that more often than we have lately. Used to be a more normal activity for this group.

Well, dang it! It looks like a whole nuther group with all the new faces (to me at least). I can smell that place now ummmm... [bow_down]

Sorry to not have made it yesterday gang but I have had so much going on it's odd. I did however get to stop long enough to cook some ribs and enjoy the Cowboys win. Full days are getting more full but it will slow I hope soon. I'm also hoping we can all get together for anohter ride before winter will grip us.

See new thread for another chance for lunch this week.
