ok fellas this is what i have planed for the pre-ride on march the 4th .  i have some more looking to do just in case things dont take as long as i think they will or incase you guys want to ride longer .. as you can tell me and alapha normal put in some miles when i ride . 200-300 + miles aride . where already looking at 200 miles round trip or so just to the meeting point and back . then  the route there . so we'll see    . simple . nothing to hard . but its not super super easy eather :P somthing that someone with not much riding skill can do and enough for the more exp. ppl to have fun on :)  heres some links .. oh .. i forgot . from the starting point . where not gonna  go down 36 where gonna run down the dam  i'll run you by the somerville highschool and let you see a real 2A school :)

ok well i'm having  problems uploading my pictures . but if you go to yahoo type in somerville,tx find the lake and 36 .. then follow the roads that run around the lake and thats what i plan on taking :) 
   
*edit* ok ok here we go got some links this is the route so far . i'll look in to a longer one sometime today**edit**

I can't go on the March 4 ride because I'll be cornerworking for RideSmart in Houston at MSR Houston. Sorry guys, but a free track day trumps y'all!

how the hell did you get that ! . my orginal plan was to go to that track day in houston but .... money issues with the bigbend trip and track day where kinda tough so i had to pick one . put seeing how your not going then i guess i wont have to meet you in austin now . . the starting point was in somerville . on the first one . its the farthest part north east . i tryed to type it there ... whats a good meeting time . i was thinking 9 but stray was not to happy about having to get up so early  :laugh: :laugh: but 10:30-11 sounded ok for me to . means i'll have to leave at 9 to get there .. same with you guys you . need to be on 290 by no later then 9am if you want to be in somerville by 10:30-11 . put it this way . from tomball to somerville is about an hour and 20 mins doing about 80 most the way ( but at that time houston was being stupid and had it marked at like 55 ) so i was not so willing to do 80 in it when i had my truck . we had that one new guy from austin . say he wanted to go on some rides with some of us but i never hear from him . i was trying to see if maybe is buddy and him wanted to join us on eather the 4th or the 17th . but oh well .

The sportbike club I'm an officer for at the university has a deal with RideSmart: cornerwork a track day, get one free. I'm going to try and track the GS every other month if I can.

thats no special deal.  email ridesmart and ask them if you can do it- you can work in the mornign, ride in the afternoon or visa versa.  i hate ridesmart trackdays though.....lonestar all the way  :thumb:

Shush you! I wanted to feel special! :laugh: How is Lonestar different? The guys from RideSmart were pretty cool with me. I need to work on my track skills though, so free is best.

lonestar has a lot smaller groups as where ridesmart just packs people in.  it is much more organized  :thumb:

every time i hear of a ridesmart even, i hear of accidents, overcrowdings, and bs going on in the pits.  ls is a lot more expensive though, and they dont offer those "special" deals  :nono:
