If you go up to Killeen theres plenty of good rides right outside of Austin. If you haven't you need to hit the sisters. Best rides in the state.

Half days ride South of me. Funny how much the terrain changes in TX.

You can actually see the curvature of the earth out here. Pretty much a flat straight ride in any direction for about an hour and half. Midland/Odessa area.

Cool video, will be headed down there the first of May for some R+R. Can't wait now.

you're lucky...winter won't stop here and I am getting anxious..

I may be wrong but paying attention at your hands on the grips on the video, you look like you steering the front wheel toward the curve... you should consider countersteering... you'll lean more and its much easier to handle curves...and may just save your life on day.

Be safe!

I grew up in the Willamette Valley. Anyone who knows what I am talking about knows that any sunny day with dry roads is something to rejoice and praise about, especially riding a bike!
And nobody appreciates sarcasm and jabs more than me, I've played the dozens with the best of them and have never met my match , no matter how low they stoop and try
So when I see these folks, our fellow brothers in ride, bad mouth your video because of whatever, be it flat, or boring; I think, man o' man, how spoiled your lives are

Talked to my Ma last night, usually do since Ma won't be around much longer and than I'll lose the tightest bond I have to the past/history as I have; and Ma was harping about the price of stuff going higher and the end was near and how she hoped I was saved.

I told her not to worry, that the prices of stuff don't matter and if I'm saved or not (I once was but I don't know about now anymore, but that's just between us mind you) it don't matter cause what's written in the script is written in the script and it's not for us to worry about what's written in the script. Ya know.

And Ma always complains about her weather, for God's sake Ma, yo live in the Willamette Valley, holy crap! She always complains about how the weather-people (being politically correct mind you) get it wrong.

Are you kidding me! If there is one place on this planet that is impossible to predict with even 95% accuracy its the weather of the Willamette Valley.
Hear me now; you are going to face the chance of everything but two feet of snow everyday of the year in the Willamette Valley, but, at the ripe age of 85 she thinks they should have mastered weather prediction now for the most weather-switchable place on the planet.


Anyphucking way, to the root of this problem, I always tell Ma not to complain about the weather, cause the weather is like God's painting on a blank canvas and to complain about the weather is to strike God in his face!

So then, don't get me wrong, I grew up in the faith, of since I may have faltered; don't get me wrong, I wish all great story's of bliss and whatever were true but..... and this is a big but...
I can't believe how many of you talk badly about a bike ride on such a beautiful day has provided!

Flat, so what if it's flat! Those spoiled brats of you that bad mouth a beautiful day to ride a motorphucking cycle on such a nice warm day should be ashamed of your bad selfs!

Member what'shisname, (I don't even remember) goes to the trouble of posting a video with a song (I admit I haven't listened to but it doesn't matter-cause the ride is all that phuckning matters!) posts a ride and some of you phoul mouth it!

Un-phucking American! I tell all of you to go wash your mouths out with lye soap, and say "Damn right Suede, you are phucking A right!"



Member What-ever-your-name-is, I say DAMN NICE VIDEO, DAMN NICE RIDE, WISH I WAS THERE, AND GOD BLESS THE USA AND IT'S ALLIES AND EVERYONE ELSE WHO IS A FRIEND!



Now all of you haters bow down and kiss the very asphalt you ride on and try the Medula Oblongata on your way out!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
