Phongeer Posted April 15, 2013 Share Posted April 15, 2013 Last minute decided to take a run up to the Wichita Mountains outside of Lawton OK. Round trip was probably between 350-400 miles total; which is the furthest I've ridden in one day. Stretching my legs for a few minutes. I always love getting close to Lawton and seeing the mountains in the distance. Here I am holding up the sign The obligatory buffalo pic My lunch view REALLY thankful my Gorillapod and Griptight held on! And that's it. Saw a TON of motos out today. It was a gorgeous Spring TX day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer Duc2V4 Posted April 15, 2013 Member Contributer Share Posted April 15, 2013 Much better than my ride turned out today. I was joining two guys I worked with for a run up one of the local mountains and all we met was fog and wet roads! WHAT?! I thought this was supposed to be sunny California. Needless to say we turned around, no need to chance wrecking, it'll be sunny again soon...I hope! Looks like a perfect trek for your VFR though. 300-400 miles are swallowed up with ease on these machines! Glad you got out to enjoy the day. Cheers!

Phongeer Posted April 17, 2013 Author Share Posted April 17, 2013 I wonder if there's a saying "A bad day riding in CA is better than a good day everywhere else"?! Man I love CA, though only been there and driven never rode while there. Someday... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer Yokel Posted April 17, 2013 Member Contributer Share Posted April 17, 2013 That's a pretty part of Oklahoma. There's a magic to the plains down there that is hard to shake. I hope you made it to the Meers Store for lunch... if not, make a point to go some time. Best Hamburgers in the state. It's a 2 hour wait during the riding season on the weekends.

Now Jon, let's not get carried away with praising the Meers burgers...LOL. Seriously though, I thought it was way better back in the 90's when they had the buffalo burgers. Now I can get just as good a burger at The Garage in Edmond... I love the Wichita Mts though...used to go fishing in the little lakes in an inner tube set up with ultra light tackle...very peaceful. There is a great little B&B in Medicine Park called the Stardust Inn. Very nice and good breakfast of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phongeer Posted April 19, 2013 Author Share Posted April 19, 2013 You're gonna love this - I ate Subway for lunch. Didn't know about the Meer's Store for a burger. Next time... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
