Valkyrie folks did a TX Hill Country gathering. We stopped at the Lonestar Motorcycle Mueseum - lots of cool old bikes.

Where you guys been since then huh---
I just got back from Galveston - The Lone Star Rally. There weren't a lot of goldwings there except 1800's but it was like a sardine can, packed tight with bikers and babes. I have never seen anything like it short of Sturgis. and .. 98% of the bikes were from Texas.

Our address is 36517 Hwy 187 North, Vanderpool Texas.
We are located 4 miles north of Vanderpool.
Vanderpool is about 30 miles west of Bandera.
We are less than a mile south of the Lost Maples State Natural Area, also on Hwy 187.


Call me around lunch time.

This area near Vanderpool has the best riding in Texas, but not as good as a lot of other places I have been.
check out this site. It explains it all.
