Just have to rub it in

Perfect day for a ride...3 dyna's and a springer. Hit some popular spots here like devil's backbone, purgatory rd. went around canyon lake, and ended up at the shade tree saloon for lunch. Temperatures were 65-75 and only had a few drops on us.

I'm glad I live in Texas where we ride all year around.

It was our first ride with Chris who I met on the forum. (txaussie) He was the one that got blown up in Afganistan and only got to stare at his new dyna when he got back home. Had to wait months to get clear to drive and then longer to ride. He had his bike dynotuned yesterday and was out riding the hell out of it today.

Welcome home and glad we all finally went on the long awaited first ride. Hopefully it will be the first of many.

smart grandaughter you got.

Next time try potters creek down the street. It has huge campsites. We fit a chevy dually, chevy extended cab, a 18' ski boat, and a 28' travel trailer in one site...and still room for tents. They allow 10 people per campsite. 24 per night, electricity and water.
