Member Contributer MaxSwell Posted February 16, 2016 Member Contributer Share Posted February 16, 2016 Real men just ride with a raw ass. Other real men don't want to follow behind this raw ass. Too bloody...... I hope your new VFR has a soft seat. For the sake of all of us. It's harder to grin with a bloody bottom! And that machine deserves big grins.

PirateRiderBen Posted February 17, 2016 Share Posted February 17, 2016 Guess I need to track down a better seat for a 500 mile bun burner. -PRB Cycling undershorts with padding Ride more Also helps to put a little diesel fuel around your ankles....it keeps the ants off of your candy azz. Don't scrimp on the bike shorts, get a good quality like top level Pearl Izumi or similar, it makes all the difference. Hey now, that candy azz is my greatest feature. Ya'll can't even seem to get enough of it. Patience kids, I'll be there in May. -PRB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer RC51Nick Posted February 17, 2016 Member Contributer Share Posted February 17, 2016 I'm totally confused now. What exactly are the dates for the 2016 event? I did figure out the Franklin Microtel is the place to stay at though. Thanks, Nick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer MaxSwell Posted February 18, 2016 Member Contributer Share Posted February 18, 2016 Well it turns out the Microtel was SOLD this year. Old management left with old owners. I've had several calls with the gal at the front desk that says the new owner is aware of our group and wants to keep us using their facility BUT the new owner has yet to return any of my request for details. This has been going on for several weeks so far. The only week that hasn't been booked yet is again Memorial Week May 26th - 29th. I think I asked them to lock in those dates, but have no idea at what price the rooms will be. So tentative dates for the 2016 TexasMac Memorial Ride are May 26th - 29th. BR I'm totally confused now.

Member Contributer RC51Nick Posted February 18, 2016 Member Contributer Share Posted February 18, 2016 I'm trying to see if I can get a buddy of mine to come down to this too. I wouldn't mind riding the dragon with some more mature riders than the younguns I did it with last year. Only got 1 day riding in due to some guy hitting the mounting the 2nd day on a stretched busa. SMH. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of the mature guys are the best riders you'll find in that area. They also have been through more bikes. One of our youngest members is the most mature rider I've had the pleasure of riding with. Hope I didn't offend, I'm just poking fun at some folks who I would never name. I'm sure they are laughing too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member Contributer kebrider Posted February 19, 2016 Member Contributer Share Posted February 19, 2016 Just see me at TMAC RC51Nick. We'll go for a spin and then pick the right group for you to hook up with. It is nearly impossible to have a bad time at TMAC. Hell, I even had fun with Gloryracing last year.

I try to keep him behind my slowa$$ bikes when we ride together but every now and then he lights up hisVFR and leaves my CB/NC/ST behind, I don't mind being the slow guy these days.

Remember why TMAC exists.Absolutely!!Just in good fun Brent, sorry if you thought I was inciting anything other then safe riding. David is one of the most experience , safest riders out there that I know of. I myself have sponsored and taught my 23 yr old son to ride a fifth gen responsibly for the last two years. Everyone ride/be safe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Duckling awakens with a loud quack but the speedo still only says 55. Good times. Just see me at TMAC RC51Nick. We'll go for a spin and then pick the right group for you to hook up with.
