He is eager but he basically works projects, and if he has a project on at that time he cannot afford to not take it and miss out on a good paycheck.

Its a nice long way either way I go , Just me and the bike for two days unless Steve can join us . Then I'd like the company.

That is great Versy. Really looking forward to this. Have had a less than pleasant day at work so far today. Really looking forward to seeing good friends and getting away from this for a week.

Good on you MM. The 712 is a good tire. I've got them both front and back now on the S40 and they do well. I will say that in my experience the 230 front tire is slightly better than the 712, but on the rear both the 712 and 230 feel about the same to me.

This year , I'm doing thing a little different.

I've been going down the Natchez Trace and camping at the south end , then running through Texas the next day. And if Hammer wants to/can go that is still a plan that works good.
But
Fact is : I don't feel as good about camping alone as I used too and its always better have a ridding buddy along too.

So
This year I'm going to Lancers on the first day and ridding with him on to Texas for day two.

Bandera Falls is a small community over by Pipe Creek and Bandera. We have been through there on English Crossing road, and it does cross the Medina River. There aren't really any .. "Falls" there.

Bandera Highway (aka 173) which is where the cabins are, is called that because you can .. well... go to Bandera on that road.

I know where some water falls are.. or what would be water falls if there was enough water. Going to look a bit pathetic with the lack of rain. More like a water trickle..

I'm going along for the ride anyway but , maybe a walk-a-bout near the trickle would be good .

One of the things we rode by was a long wall with glass piled on top of it. I had the idea that Drug money can buy things like that. That was in a flat land area.

Have we been to the "Hill Country State Natural Area" near Tarpley yet ?

Or

The "Canyon State Natural Area" ?

The entire area has me in a Vacation State of Mind , so I'm good with all of it. Wink

Umm .. no. There is a road that goes through it. It is also very .. Natural. Made up of native texas rock.. caliche.. Sure. Glad to take you there. Happy Trails to You!

We call that place "Government Canyon".

Very popular with hikers and mountain bikers.
