Trike Talk / TOI Mid America Gathering

[TexasGuy]

Ha ha

I had planned on attending this, but................

I will be heading to Idaho instead. Our youngest is expecting and the due date is June 10. So we will be heading there to welcome in a new Grandchild!

Two potatoes are together. Which one is the prostitute?

The one with the sticker that says Idaho. epper::laugh:epper::clapping:epper::gah:epper:

Sue and I are planning to go, made reservations for June 19 for 5 nights.

If if you guys don't mind we would like to ride along with you. Navasota is a half hour away, or we could meet you in Lufkin. Kerrville was good, a longer trip sounds even better.

Tom A

Hey Tom, sounds good to me. Send me a PM with your email address so I can include you in the "loop" and you don't miss any critical announcements, like what tools Jr needs you to bring along. Did not know you are in Montgomery - I am not far from there and go through there at least once a month to my trike meeting in Conroe. ThumbUpThumbUp

Sounds like it would be as much meeting y'all in Texas as waiting regular gathering. If wasn't 400 miles in the direction I would meet up with you. But if I did we may not even get there. I wish I lived in Texas.

Jerry

We wish you lived in Texas also. The only people who don't wish they lived in Texas are people who don't live in Texas. :cxtv: :xzqxz:

You're welcome to come down and join us. That would only add two days to your trip. Hmm...:AGGHH: Would like to have you. You never know when Jr is going to want to ride bitch, and y'all get along sooooo well.

hay Jerry, I am sure at some time, some people will get enough of ragging us, and I am glad you did not let me walk, stayed with me until I had my trike in a save place and me back to the Motel. ( even if you missed you royals game ) that is the kind of friends we have on TRIKE TALK.

Is this Dot Bailey? OJ and I have been trying to get in contact with you regarding the ride to Osage Beach. We have quite a group going, meeting in various places and times, but will all end up together sooner or later. Please PM me through Trike Talk with contact info so we can keep you in the loop.

Thanks.
Stan

I PM you just now. Let me know if you did not receive it. Dot Bailey

Jan and I are thinking of meeting you guys and gals in Little Rock. There is a Days Inn on 65, just north of Little Rock. We need to make it a 2 day ride there if possible. That will make both days about the same riding time, I think. Not sure on the route yet, but will be I-35/I-40 and up or US79 and up (79 being the longer road time route). Will have to figure all that out in the next few months and see who might, or might not be, riding along with us from here.

Big Juice,

I live in Little Rock and would possibly like to join your group for the ride from LR to Osage Beach.

There is a possibility of my missing the Osage meeting if I'm not back from the Valkyrie Riders meeting in W. Virginia & a side trip to Maryland to visit my daughter and grandchildren & the usual actually sincere approval of my wife for being gone for three weeks over a four week period.

If your group consists of a group of old and close friends who don't need a stranger in their midst, I please let me know and I would certainly understand.

You have no idea what you're in for...

If your group consists of a group of old and close friends who don't need a stranger in their midst, I please let me know and I would certainly understand.

Hi Dan,

First, welcome to our little group, such as it is. I am sort of putting this thing together, but as Jr. says it is a lot like herding cats. Having said that, we will all make it work somehow.

I have added your contact info to the "loop" so when emails go out regarding schedules, routes, etc., you will be included in that. We'll figure out a meetup place and time in LR, if you will keep us posted as to whether you will be with us or not. I you have not yet made your hotel reservation I urge you to do that asap. You can always cancel later if you're not going to make the trip, which would need to be done by 3 pm 14 days before your arrival date.

As far as the rest of it is concerned, everybody except me is "old" but only Jr. is "close" to anyone, and that guy lives in Missouri so he won't be joining us on the ride up. We all agree that we are all strange so a stranger in our midst will be most welcome and will be a refreshing addition. It would be helpful if you know a couple of jokes that we haven't heard but it's not necessary.

Glad to have you with us. Look forward to meeting you. ThumbUp

Hey Dan, glad to have you plugged into our group of riders! We would love to have you ride along with us on our way to Osage. Stan (TexasGuy) is our main man for organizing this little group, so you will be hearing from him as much as anybody. We have people from San Antonio, San Angelo, Horseshoe Bay, Austin and points all around Texas that will be coming together between here and Little Rock. So keep in touch and things will get more specific with routes and stops as we get closer.

 

[Gold Rush]

:Agree::Agree::Agree:

Yup, what O.J. Said!!! We are all getting a little excited to start the serious planning. Even if we do get to ride year around it still is nice to gather up once in a while and tell lies!!:xszpv::xszpv:

 

[DPK]

Big Juice, Trail Blazer, Texas Guy,

Thanks for the kind words and invites.

I missed the TT meeting in Eureka last year coming back from the Valk meeting in SD. I had planned to stop in Eureka on the way back but a friend I was riding with in Spearfish Canyon hit a deer. Luckily, he was ok and his bike was barely rideable so I followed him back to Tulsa instead of stopping at Eureka.

I'm planning drop the visit DC & cut the WV Valk meeting short and get home in time to go to Missouri. I had mistakenly thought there was a week between events but they are again consecutive.

If if I have to drop one it will be the Valk meeting as I've never attended the trike meeting.

So, after this long story, please keep me in the loop. I'm including my contact info hereinbelow.

Again, thanks for the invite.

Dan

hi Larry I have not seen a schedule but a lot of times we don't have a full schedule. it is more of a gathering than a rally. and if you have never attended one of trike talk gatherings , you are in for a treat. it is a grate group of people that like to ride, eat & visit. I do have to tell you it is addictive. I went to one on nov, 1&2 2014 and have not missed one sence. we have made a # of live long friends and meet more at ever gathering.

Be careful...

Larry you might want to be skeptical of anything Jr. (Trail Blazer) tells you. Here is a recent photo of his trike. He SAYS he was looking for the alternator. I have not heard if he found it or not.

I can't say to much, I'm not very mechanical myself. If I break down while I'm here in Texas your saying I shouldn't call Trail Blazer.

Oh go ahead and call him whatever you like. We call him things all the time. He doesn't seem to mind.

Grate Larry, I am looking forwards to meeting you. I am trail blazer on the forum but all my friends just call me Jr. ( I don't know how old you have to be to be called Sr. )

 

[Ed Hobgood]

I'll be adding this to my schedule and will see if I can get a some others to go over to the beach with me. I agree this isn't the beach that I really like but there is some good riding in the area.

don't pay any attention to Stan, you can see from the picture it needed cleaning to get all the dust off under the Tupperware

hi Larry call the motel and tell them you are with the trike talk group, they have rooms.
see being a trike talk member has it benefits. looking forwards to seeing you there

 

[TexasGuy]

Benefits

see being a trike talk member has it benefits.

It sure does. For example, let's say you are on a diet and you are not supposed to eat pie and ice cream. If temptation raises its ugly head, no problem. Somebody will break down and need help, which you can do instead of getting pie and ice cream. Right, Jr? epper:

 

[Larry Sobczak]

Thanks for the help, I called and reserved a room this morning.
