World Guzzi Day - Houston Texas - September 12, 2015
« on: August 14, 2015, 05:12:42 PM »
***UPDATE***
Location:
The Darkhorse Tavern
2207 Washington Ave. Houston ,TX.

Time:
6-10 p.m.

***Park in the back where there is a lot big enough for us all to get a good look at the bikes.***


Hi Everyone,

Myself and a few other local Guzzi folk were thinking of having a gathering in Houston on Saturday, September 12th for those that cannot make it to Mandello for the big event. Starting about 6 o'clock and going till ten maybe. It is a Saturday and we were thinking of the Dark Horse Tavern on Washington Ave. They have a big parking lot off street and a shaded deck next to it. Cold beer and snacks. Many motorcycle things have happened here over the last few years and it is a good central location (a mile from downtown) for anyone coming from Katy, Galveston, Conroe and the like.

Interested? Ideas, concerns,

  I would consider riding to Houston for the event, but I will be on a trip to the Great Lakes area.

I'm in.  Riding (and not drinking) or driving (and having a beer or two?).

Just let me know when and where.

Rit,

Great idea, let me figure out location.  Might join you. No drinking and riding for me on a Saturday night in Houston though.

Think I am in town, but not sure yet:  will determine.

thanks!

Google Maps street view shows Darkhorse bar and what looks like a parking meter at its edge.
 :popcorn:
It's only a thousand miles from Tucson Arizona - or 25 hours and a hundred dollars one-way on Amtrak.:whip2:
