Tmac's over sad face.

I have to say I think we pulled off what might just have been the BEST TexasMac every! :cheerleader:

Fantastic weather, roads, people and I think a very successful first time ever Dinner & Awards Banquet! :fing02:

I just rolled in after 1300 miles of some of the best twisties the South has to offer with the Biggest Grin on my face. Yes I was exhausted with the all the stress and planning needed to pull off a Tmac, but once Saturdays ride groups all showed up and including one beat up Canadian I could finally breath a sigh of relief and enjoy it all.

A BIG thanks to all the volunteers and other members help to make it all happen and of course all of the attendees that make this such a great event! :biggrin:

I actually didn't get to take many photos, but did get a few which I will post up later. Please Post up your Tmac photos, stories & thoughts here.

Thanks again everyone!

BR

PS I did hit 83,000 miles one the way home today and not a single hitch out of my bike all week! I love my VFR!

Man what a great couple of days! Good group of folks and I'm missing those roads already.

When I got about 2 hours from home I was wishing I had trailered instead of riding, but I made it. I hate interstate on a bike.

I'm staying a week next time!

Three of four FL guys are still at Franklin enjoying a final Sunday evening before heading back south. A GREAT time was had by all. Looking forward to next year. Rooms 107 and 108 already reserved. Especially looking forward to more BBQ...

The Space Shuttle... Just east of Eureka Springs, Arkansas. NASA budget cuts have really taken a toll.

Someone had a suggestion that we should all post a pic of us so that people can put screennames with people they met. Personally I thought it was a good idea as I know I have trouble with that myself. HS, BR, thoughts? Doesn't have to be in here, but maybe under another topic. I don't know how you'd do it though without having a bunch of posts to sift through in between pictures other than having a really busy moderator. Just a thought that came home with me from Franklin.

Probably not everyone does it but if you click on my profile there is a picture there loaded of me. I know some others have loaded one as well.
