Default Lone Star Rally

I went out to the Lone Star Rally in Galveston yesterday. Attendance was good I thought, especially considering the rally had to be rescheduled because of the Hurricane. It was an overcast day, and windy, but not too cold. I thought I would share a few pics from it.

No JW, it was a 4 day rally. I couldn't go Thursday or Friday because of work though. I might go back out there this afternoon.

We went Saturday and I thought the crowd was way down. Been every year. We usually go everyday but timing was wrong this year. Island looks better than it did just three weeks ago. At least the weather was warm but the wind was cool.

Oh I agree the crowd was smaller than usual. But, when you consider the rally was held in the middle of December, There was still a good amount of people. I thought anyway.

Debated about running down there today, but I'm so tired of driving to Houston for work lately that I had no desire to ride that route on 45. Maybe next time
