Friday February 11th Tejas Restaurant Again
Well, the three riders that made it through the ice last week said that they really enjoyed the restaurant . So, we will give it another try. If you have questions about the address, the restaurant is about two blocks North of expressway 83 on I road on the left hand side. Plan to arrive about 11:3...

Icy Roads and Highways Closed
I think we will pass today! I am not against riding in this however, I have a certain distrust for the bald tire, no insurance maniacs on the icy roads this morning. I will post the next ride Sunday. This has got to have you guys and gals up north laughing. The good news is they are predicting 70's...

Friday February 4th Tejas Resturant
The weather man says 40 degrees and a chance for sleet Friday. I know our friends up North would say that sounds balmy however, I know not many will show up. I am looking at a Tejas Restaurant on the I road at noon as a possibility. I told the restaurant to expect about 10 of us but, I am sure if m...

Alien (legal) ROMEO's invade the RGV
Well, Roger Shores the Rounder (year around rider) and Jerry Matson (new Texan) made it to Joe Cotton's BBQ in Robstown Friday and were met with about 30 bikes. We had a wonderful lunch. Although, Texas BBQ is not Aurther Bryant's by a fair margin. They never will figure that one out down here. How...

Re: Friday January 28st Joe Cotton's BBQ Robstown
Jerry, As you have noticed Texas is a very hospitable place. We love people from the frozen North down here. I can't wait to see you guys and catch up. I am sure you will enjoy the diverse group from everywhere including north of the other border that ride with us each week. See you on Friday. -Tum...

Re: Friday January 21st Zapata Ride
Great ride today albeit a chilly start. The sun shined all day and the winds were light. We had 13 riders show up at El Parasio Resturant in Zapata. I hope to see all of you next week. - Tumbleweed

If the weather holds out - "I don't ride if it is hotter than 110 or colder than 72 and on top of that I need an ok from Mother" - So far everything is lining up, I have permission and weather is looking ok! Tell mom it's a go,and bring her along. My parole officer has cleared me for most...

Friday January 21st Zapata Ride
I checked the mileage from McAllen and it is just under 100 miles to the restaurant. My mapping software said 2 hours. I told Elise that we would be there between 11:30 and noon. How about we start from McAllen about 9:30? Any takers? - tumbleweed

The weather is going to hold out for a better ride this week as we have a real treat. The self proclaimed home of Chicken Fried Steak. El Paraiso Restaurant is expecting us and I hope some of the riders that slept in last week will be anxious to make the trip to Zapata this week. It looks to be a g...

January 14th ride Boca Paila Resturant on Walker Lake
I knew we had a lot of fair weather riders but I wasn't prepared for this. It quit raining and was in the low 50's this morning so I expected a lighter than normal turnout. Well, Dan (Joscycle), Fox and I rode out to the resturant from the Whataburger in McAllen and we ended up being the ride. Oh w...

January 14th ride Boca Paila Restaurant on Walker Lake
Ray Moore's suggestion for the ride to San Isidro was so good last week that we are going to give his latest idea a try. Boca Paila Restaurant is south of La Joya on Walker Lake. If you have ever been to Rancho El Charco the restaurant is just across from the entrance. Becky is expecting us but not...

San Isidro ride details
I fully expected to have fewer riders today as many people told me that they had no idea where San Isidro was. However, much to my suprize we had another great turn out. 42 riders showed up and if the usual riders had attended we might have broken 55. I walked into Lane's Cafe and there sat Retread...
