This fella's been riding longer than most here are old

Amazing inspiration! He's got about a 45 year headstart on me. lol Sure would like to meet him!

Wish we could be there. We'll be in the Ozarks on the 28th with a bunch of folks from around the country.

Is there another Lufkin BBQ. Someone please sort out this bucket of worms. :) I'm trying to figure out motel reservations etc. and sure would like to get my locations correct!! :xszpv::xszpv:

 
Jerry, the place we are meeting has not closed. It is actually called Stringers Lufkin Bar-B-Que the website link is below, maybe the same one you posted and the phone number you posted is correct. I just called them and the are very much open.

Randy, Jan and I are considering this ride. We've got about 225 one way, so have you set up a time for lunch? We will go straight there if I can put it together and need to decide route and timing. It would be an honor to meet that gentleman!

All I can say is WOW


Had a guy in the shop couple years ago had a brand new Harley said he rode to Sturgis every year and has for 50 Years he was 86 years old. said he had to take it easy now he could not make the trip at one time has to spend the night somewhere around the 650 to 700 miles. Heck if I live to be that old hope I can ride 60 or 70 miles
 
Ben a young 101

hay all I talk to Ben Mock on the phone thursday the 5 th , I call just to keep in touch with him, ( he does like to talk ) we talked about the days when people look down the nose a bikers, you'll remember those day. I reminded him our lunch was may 28 and told him if he had a Dr. appointment make sure it was not on the 28th.

he told me his Dr. told him not to ride his trike out of town by his self, he has hart problems and breathing problems. he all so told me he wanted to ride to California one more time before he goes. Dr. said no, Ben said he just might get up one morning and feel like going and just pack a bag and go. he is a card. he has a daughter she looks after him some. it is his youngest daughter in her 70s I told him if he wanted to bring her do it, he said he could not melt her and pour her on the trike.

I will try to meet him for a Dr. pepper ( his drink of chose ) next week. I just enjoy talking to Ben. you'll have a good day
 
Ya'll keep us advised of the when & where, & what time ya'll be there. I have a grandson graduating at Huntsville on the 28th (gotta keep peace in the family & attend). They start at 10 am, his name begins with "B", so hopefully he'll walk across early. Then I beat the roads x-country to Lufkin.

Somebody buy Jr a beer, he & Ben should still be talking when I get there. :D

hay Dennis you know I don't talk much ( but I will try just for you )
 
Jr, do you think we could call Lufkin BBQ and ask to move it up from 11:30 to 12:00 so we can give Dennis an extra 30 minutes to make it?
 
Dennis would give a friend the shirt off his back...he's as good as they come in my book and always there if you need him.
 
Now OJ... don't tell us you're afraid to ride 2nd seat on that new Spyder? :laugh:

Oh yeah, I came here to say I'll be riding up with the others on the 28th. Seems as since I paid for the grad's after party, I'm excused from the walking part. :clapping:

See ya'll then!

Have you seen the way my wife rides?! Besides, she doesn't want me on that trike, I might try to tell her what to do and where to go! Then she would tell ME where to go..... Damn, I miss my trike!
