Site location for the January RTE ....

[Dick]

... at the Eve's Cafe, 521 E. 3rd, Lampasas, TX 76550 (512)556.3500. It's actually about 4 doors to the right of the site flag.

Lookee here. You can zoom around, change to map or satellite or hybrid, plus left click the mouse and move the earth!!!

And I think you can get driving directions from where you are, using the leetle box in the middle of the site.

Reckon 12-noon would be a good time. After the roster runs a few dayz, I'll give 'em a call and a heads-up on the numbers, so they won't lock the door!!! And for those of us in the 'hood, breakfast at BBAC around 0800?? I'll be there.

Guess I'll be in Lampasas. Dunno about Lanette yet.

[Texas42]

OK, I'm new here what is "RTE"? It sounds like fun whatever it is so I'll try to make it. :)

Hey, Bo - if your idea of 'fun' is eatin' hearty, then you gotta make it!! :D :D

That's what it is - a Ride To Eat. Be lookin' for ya. Hopefully, you can hook up with some of the DFW rowdies and run down with 'em. Ride safe.

[Texas42]

Sounds good, I'll try to make it. :)

Good show - you'll have to take some 'to-go' stuff back home for Judy, then!!

Keith and Gina were at the Hard Eight and the Koffee Kup, right? Glad they're gonna make the run with ya. Cya in Lampasas.

[gulfxray]

Sounds like fun - you guys have fun!

Bo, be careful and don't let 'em take advantage of you... ;-)

I think Dick has taken RTE scheduling to the next level with the satellite over head - cool!

[Dick]

Hey, Shawn - wish you could make it, butt understand - this'n would be an overnighter for sure. Be nearly a 9 or 10 hour run each way. You gotta move down here a leetle closer to the Hill Country, man!!

And hey, when we gonna do one up your way? I'm making a KS run sometime in late February, early March - maybe we could schedule somethang around that and see who comes outta the bushes up in OK or KS, or even AR. More on that later.

[Dick]

Just for info - I've updated the initial post in this thread. Latest roster info, I believe. Lemme know of any goofs; if I've left any brides off; or SOs; and if you're not on the roster, butt wannabe, lemme know that too and I'll add-on.

[bustedknuckles]

The kids are planning on coming up to visit that weekend but.............
If they are unable to arrange a pet sitter Me and Patricia are in.

[Dick]

Woohoo - when wuz the last time we crossed eyes?? Fayetteville?? Geez - too long ago. Hope baby sitter is a no-show!!

Next time I update the roster, I'll do a 'maybe' on you and Patricia.

[bustedknuckles]

I think it was the "BBQ" parade in the town square. What a beautiful weekend that was!!

[eljeffe]

I think I can wrangle Jim Sutton and David Scott as well.

Looking forward to seeing all of you there.

You're on the list, Kirk. Ride safe, Cya 'bout noon or maybe a tad earlier.

[McRuss]

There's two a them: the uppity Lake Hills (Austin suburg) and the lowly, dog patchly Lakehills. We're the ones with the Fairlane-up-on-blocks-in-the-yard Lakehills. And they'll never find me anyhoo....friends or foes!

Yeppir, Jim - least I'll be there. Kinda early so's I don't ruin lunchies!! Glad you're gonna make the RTE. :)

[kellenbenz]

The plan for us (Delores and I) as of now is to ride to Blanco and spend the night Friday. Then ride with the group on to Lampasas for lunch on Saturday.

Get some use out of the Suitcase Trailer.

Hopefully we can chat about a future RTE in the Tyler area while we are there.

Ron

[grifscoots]

You can stay at our house if you like... it's free.

[munson]

Hopefully we can chat about a future RTE in the Tyler area while we are there.

You set it up, Ron, and we will come. I love it over in E. Tex. In fact, Sweetpea and I will be in Tyler for our anniversary weekend. A little romantic get-away planned, I have!

You gonna do an RTE for your anniversary?!?! :eek: Somehow, I don't put an RTE in the *romantic* category, Rev!! :D :D

Butt hey - Happy Anniversary. What's the 'birthstone'?? :)

Which reminds me - here is an updated roster as of 1-20-06. Keith and Gina had to bail, as did Russ and Cathy. And I added Delores Kellenbenz. Looks like Delores, Sweetpea and Patricia might appreciate some more ladies coming along to add to the flavor of the RTE. So, if you know your gonna bring along a passenger, please lemme know to add the name to the roster, as well as the headcount for the restaurant --- thanks, all.

It will be only my Sweetpea and me, my funny friend! It's our tenth, and we are staying at a B&B and going to a concert at the ETSU auditorium. We'll ride if the weather is pleasant enough.

[ibbones]

MAn, I wish I could add my name to the list and hook up with ya'll. It looks like fun but I have another commitment that weekend.

(pout pout) Bummer (bottom lip sticking out) :(

[Dick]

Hey, Bones - not to worry too much. We'll check out the venue and if it passes, we'll do'er agin --- we usually hit 'em at least twice if they're good with the service, passable with the food and have plenty of parking space for tire kickin'. :D Stay tuned.

BTW - aren't you in the Victoria area? Got any recommendations for an RTE around there. We're alwayz lookin' for new places.

Cya soon. Have a great week-end.

[DanMartin]

For something in the Victoria area I would suggest Barketts seafood in Seadrift. or Baytown seafood in Victoria.

Dan Martin

Hey Dan - good to hear from ya, and thanks for the tips. You reckon either one of those venues would bring a few Houstonites out on the road for an RTE?? We haven't done much over that way, 'cept for me, Dean and Bruce running to Fayetteville and meeting up with D. Brittain and bride, last year.

I do remember that Paul Yeager hosted an RTE in Port Lavaca a few years back, and that drew a pretty good size crowd. So - maybe after Barrett does his thing in a month or so, we'll take a look at Seadrift, or Victoria. And Kellenbenz is working on sumpthin' for the east Tejas crowd, so we oughta have the next few months covered. Oh yeah - and Rango is doing his Red River Roundup in May. Dang, we may have to do more'n one a month sometime!!

Thanks again, Dan. Hope to see ya in south Tejas sometime soon.

[Texas42]

My wife Cindy will be coming with me. We are going to ride to Salado after lunch and spend the afternoon and evening there, then riding back on Sunday. Is there a group riding form the DFW area that we can join?

Hey, Bo - glad Cindy is making the trip. And spending the evening around Salado is good --- the Stagecoach restaurant there has fed us a coupla times in the past. Good food. And the front lobby will letcha park the scoot right in plain site, under the Port-a-cache.

I'll add Cindy to the update list in a moment. Thanks for the note. Y'all ride safe Saturday - hope you find some other inmates to hook-up with!!!

Looking forward to meeting you all.

Hotdog, Eric - gonna be great to see you again, and meet Barbara (be sure and tell her that Grif's scoot has the same name, so when he starts talking about his 'Barbara', she'll know whazzup!!!) :D

I'll putch'all on the list at my next roster update. Cya Satiday, Eric. Ride safe.

Wow!!! You HAVE been to this area. The Big Fisherman in Rockport, TX. is also a good place to eat. They have a killer lunch special. The only bad thing about this area is that there were more curves in Griff's driveway then there are between here and Rockport.

Hope ya'll have a great time this weekend.

Yeah, I grew up in Port Lavaca. From August to October last year both of my parents were in different hospitals in Victoria and Port Lavaca. I would go and visit on Wednesdays and Sundays. Of course then you have to go eat. We would go to Baytown Seafood and then take a plate to Dad in DeTar Hospital.
Haven't been to Rockport in a while. An uncle used to have a beach house on Fulton beach. Will look for The Big Fisherman next time we go to Corpus.

Dan Martin
Houston

[ibbones]

Hola Dan.
Port Lavaca huh? Now you are in the big town.
My wife works at DeTar (and Citizens part time). IF you like seafood, try PJ's seafood on Navarro. It B Good!
The Big Fisherman is just off Hwy 35 on the South Side of Rockport. BIG sign and really hard to miss. About 1/2 mile down State Hwy 188.
Hope Mom & Dad are well.

[bustedknuckles]

Dick, you can put us on the will be there list now.
Thanks!

[Dick]

Gotcha Stephen --- man, I like it when you and 'Trish make the trip. Stay tuned after tamale, when Edgar, Channing and I go check out the place. Hope it lives up to my expectations!! Cya Satiday.

Alrighty folks - I've updated the main post in this thread to show the info for the new RTE venue in Lampasas, (Eve's Cafe, 521 E. 3rd), since the Limestone Grill no longer exists. I've included the Google Earth hybrid satellite shot for Eve's Cafe. You'll notice that there is plenty of parking space around the town square - hopefully we can congregate almost directly across the street from Eve's Cafe. BTW - the cafe is actually a few doors east/to the right of the Google site flag, almost right above the *t* in St.

Cy'all there, and lemme mention, Eve's menu is heavy into German flavor, butt if you're not hep on German food, there is Napoli's Italian restaurant a few doors down. And for info, since we're gonna be *waitered*, be prepared for slower service than someplace like Cooper's or the Hard Eight. And, there are a lotta shoppes around the square, for those that must!!!

I'm a scratch. Going to head out in the rain tomorrow for Nashville, taking the Saab, with passenger. Going to meet a HS friend I haven't seen since early college days who is flying in to Nashville for a conference from Hawaii. You guys have fun and ride safe.

[Dick]

Gonna miss ya, David - butt renewing long-ago friendships ranks right up there with good samaritan gigs. So, drive safe; have a wonderful 'renuion' (sic on purpose); and watch for the February RTE site.

[Texas42]

Since the weather is supposed to be bad early Saturday morning Cindy and I will probably wait until the weather clears to ride to Lampasas then to spend the night in Salado, then come home on Sunday afternoon. When we have the choice we are fair weather types. :)

Hey, Bo - no problemo. Understand completely. I'm bummed that the wx ain't cooperating, butt we do need the rain, so I'll get over it. I'm goin' anyway, and depending on what the computer shows and when I stick my head out the window, I'll be on Toad, or in the truck. Y'all ride safe - enjoy Salado too.

[eatanner]

Not sure if Debby and I will be heading up or not. It's been a tiring week and we're looking to see if the energy is present or not in the ahem. Breakfast is a definite no-go. We'll see everyone on another day if we end up staying in bed all day.

[grifscoots]

Hey, that's what I plan on doing Sunday!

[munson]

Hey, Bo - no problemo. Understand completely. I'm bummed that the wx ain't cooperating, butt we do need the rain, so I'll get over it.
We are getting that much needed rain this morning here in Grapevine. We're going to stay home today. Y'all be safe out there.

[eljeffe]

If it were June or July, I might brave the rain. But not in January.

See you at the next RTE.

[grifscoots]

Now I think of that, sheesh:p

Anybody go? Anybody make it back on two wheels?:D

[kellenbenz]

Just got home! Grif's mishap aside, it was a great day actually. I know that a lot of the wussies aren't going to believe this, but I did not get a bit wet and rode about 570 miles in the last 2 days. Good burrito at the bowling alley and wonderful German food at Eve's. Best part though were the 2 rides....first from Blanco to Lampasas with Mr. Dick leading on the still great looking Toad and the ride part way home from Lampasas following Andy on the Burgman. At lunch Andy described the Burgman as a quite capable scooter. After following him I surely have to agree. I hope Andy stayed dry on the rest of his ride to Houston. I'll see if I can post a couple pics later.


Ron

[EricSuz]

Barb and I made it home fine. Great time. She agreed to ride to Lone Star after we left Lampasas. Got the new windshield installed. Then a nice ride home from Austin. It was great seeing three other riders at Eve's. Grif--what happened? Glad to hear that you are OK.

The last RTE I attended--about a year ago at Sammy' Cafe--I was the only one there. So this was a great improvment. First RTE for Barb. I think she is hooked.

[Texas42]

Cindy and I left Flower Mound about 1:00 missed all of the rain, a little windy and we made it to Salado about 5:30, had a nice evening and then we took the long way back to Flower Mound today. We had unbelievable weather today. We stopped for lunch in Crawford, then followed a bunch of Valkyries back to south of Ft. Worth then took off home to Flower Mound about 3:00. Cindy did great for her first long ride; she even is ready to go again. Sorry we weren't up for riding in the rain, maybe the next time.

Ron,

believe it or not I was JUST at the back of the front all the time. I saw the road wet, but never got more than 5 drops on my way home. Enjoyed riding with you, but you gotta do something with the light of yours!

'side I have to agree, there are a lot of sissies here. a few drops of rain and they all stay home. LOL :D

Well worth driving to Nashville to see my old friend. I had a great time, would do it again anytime. The weather cooperated with me, going and coming was dry. Rained Saturday night and blew out before I left Sunday. Had to run the air conditioning as the temps got near 80 on the way home.
