Pyro's Twisted Texas Tour '12

[Pyrogenic]

New Map has been posted. It's corrected for the directions (last version was not set up right and the points were out of order.)

Late breakfast in Wimberly (or lunch) Monday before heading back to Tomball via more twisties!

This is actually going to work out well. I have the MS150 the following weekend and will be tapering down on training anyway. I am really sick of riding that road bicycle anyway!

Slight change of plans for me. I am not going to NM after all. I actually have to be in Dallas that Monday evening for a business dinner and then meetings on Tuesday. So.... I will be breaking off from the group Monday and heading straight up 35 to Dallas.

Business first! Well, you could go N on 281 to Hico. Go 6 East a few meters and then take N 220 (aka cr199) and get on 67 all the way to south Dallas (I-20). That is much better than I-35, on a bike. If you wanted to. Not sure how much difference in time. Hell, it may save you time since going up 35 can be backed up sometimes! There are a couple small town stops, but it is ok. It is one of my alternate routes.

In that case maybe we'll hit lunch in Gruene for lunch on the way out.

Glad you get to stay with us one more day :cheers:
Once you get out of Austin - that is a quick little trip. I was surprised at how fast I made if from San Marcos to Dallas. Piece of cake

We could head up to Austin for lunch... Best sushi ever is Musashino on the NW expressway...

I may ask if I can tag along. I have yet to experience "great sushi"

EDIT: The wesite looks awesome!!!

I am not sushi fan but they have plenty more on their menu that I do like.

 

[FZ1yb]

Never been to that place, yet.

 

[Pyrogenic]

They have cooked food as well, but their sushi has always been awesome.

Perhaps something downtown would be cooler on the river!

I will at least try it.

I agree with Brad. I would like to try it. I want to get a hold of this sushi and give it a try.
That place looks really cool.

If you want downtown, I have had great food at the Moonshine Grill. It's also near the water (aka Town Lake, aka Lady bird lake).

It's just too bad you are giving up on the Wimberly Cafe. Oh well.

I don't care what we do as long as I don't have to make any decisions.

I like my bike to lead me down the road. The fun of it.

 

[Pyrogenic]

As long as I'm riding I'm happy!

2 weeks to go!!!
I'm really getting excited. Picked up a pair of Corbin Beetle Bags for the trip. I need to sand them and paint them to match my Skunk paint scheme. I will probably put some Bondo-Glass fiberglass reinforced filler in there somewhere just to make sure they are sealed up and water tight since I'm sanding fiberglass.
