Hey I drive truck and I'm on my way down to Texas. I might be able to slide in on my way down. Any place to park a semi? Might even be able to get a Guzzi loaded to bring down

I'm sure we can find a spot for the truck , there is a rodeo arena at the park with a large gravel lot . Yes, stop buy and hang out , bring the Guzzi  :thumb:

I should be there no later than noon on Friday.  Not sure I can make Thursday with yard work delayed by the rain.

Assuming all goes well...I leave Toronto tomorrow morning, and land in Houston mid morning, make sure no damage from any flooding and then tank up and go.

With all of the flooding, I hope that the routes out of town are not closed or muddy or maybe I'll have to re-route a bit to bypass the worst of it.  I will have to check routing, but would like to get a few hours down the road Thursday to be able to arrive Friday evening as well.  Everything north and east of Houston seems to have been nailed with rain as well, and the forecast seems to be for more rain tonight and tomorrow...hoping that doesn't delay departure until Friday.

Hoping for nice weather up and back...

gotta get brake pads for the EV.  Might take the Greenie instead.  I really wanted to save the tires on the Sport to go to Arkansas RAT Raid next weekend.

Any more details on the museum ride to Augusta concerning day and time frame? I was planning to do my morning workout on Friday but may cancel that to come earlier to do Augusta. Good excuse anyway. :angel:

Sorry I am getting there a little late.  I have to mow the lawn, get the trailer, and get brakes on the EV if they come in by noon.  So I can pack tomorrow.  Right now my plan is to get to CV before noon on Friday. 

What if we met for lunch (say 1 pm) in Wichita and then went to Augusta in the afternoon?  THat would give me an hour or so to ride up for lunch.  SInce you're coming from the west you could meet for lunch.

Call me 405 774 3599 and we can confirm the schedule.  Anyway you cut it, there can always be glitches.  Lunch recommendations would be appreciated.  I've heard the museum is really good.

Just about six blocks off of I-35 on East 13th in Wichita is one of the best BBQ places anywhere IMHO. Pig In Pig Out.

BBQ sounds easy enough GJ.  13th is off I-35.  should be no problem.

Call me tomorrow and we'll firm it up the time.

Then take 35 south to 400 and go east to Augusta.

LowRyter,
Pig In Pig Out is 1003 E 13th. The place can get busy so if you can get in between 11:00 and 11:30 it would be better. If not, no big deal. Concerning timing what were you thinking? Do you just want to call me when you are about an hour out of Wichita if not sure of timing? Phone is 620-755-3161.

You might come up with an alternative if we can't make your shedule. 

I am packed and hope to leave tomorrow morning.

Sunday looks like it's going to be rain all the way back from Kansas to Houston...let's hope the forecasters are wrong as tomorrow/Saturday look like great weather.
