Thanks for the well wishes. This will be my first STOC gathering and I'm looking forward to it. According to the list, it looks like there will be a good turnout.

I hope to catch up with you sometime and meet in person.

Yep, I'm going to miss it too. I've been sick for several weeks and thought I was getting over it. My symptoms returned after I finished my last round of anti-biotics. I hope you all have a great time.

Too bad you couldn't make it Joe! There is a DQ right across the street from the motel. OOPs!

I saw you guys heading out of town on 75 in rush hour traffic, I was still jealous that you all were on the bikes, heading to the hill country. Great pics

Rob, I found a water spot on the topbox carrier. If I had known you weren't going to do a good job on my bike like you did on yours, I would have washed it myself. LOL!
This was my first TEXSTOC and it was great meeting everyone. Keith did a great job putting it together and he also scheduled some very nice weather..........or maybe it was just some of Pat's farkles controlling the weather. LOL!

PS. Joe......I have a cone at the DQ in your honor. The kid asked if I wanted to "Mellow Size" my order, but I told him that I'd rather just have a small cone. Me bad! LOL!

Keith did a great job.

One of the benefits of so many farkles is the electro-magnetic vortex that surrounds the bike and helps keep the weather in check :D

Pat, as I was coming home up Hwy 84 it came to me! You need to add a wind generator to your bike. That would be much more ecologically sound than the generator in the trailer idea. Of couse, the propellor MIGHT slow you down enough that the slower blue and silver ones could keep up with you. LOL!

Too late. I installed a solar panel on the top box lid last night. It actually works as a battery tender during daylight hours. And no wind drag!

Good for you Joe! I had a terrible accident the other day. I forgot to fold the gas tank lock cover back down after fueling and caught my belly button on it. I was trapped there until Rob came by with a can of WD40 and shot a little lube on it. LOL!
