Who is going to the Republic of Texas rally and what are you riding?
Me, I'll be riding my 2004 sporty 1200 from okc, rode it there last year with no problems hope this year is the same.

Be cool and keep the sunny side up

 

If riding 35 be prepared for construction from Hillsboro to Temple.
Ride safe and enjoy the ROT

 

I'm local, the rally is across town for me and I'll be there. 2013 Iron.
And yeah 35 is no picnic lately with the construction as you might know. I ride it a fair amount to Dallas and back to Austin and there's a few holes that would swallow my bike if I hit them wrong. Be careful man.

 

Excellent listing of ROT Rally events in the Austin area taking place both inside AND outside of the rally grounds. Nice little map too with links to venue websites etc...
