Come on out for a fun time and support a great cause.

Raffle prizes have been donated by:

Riders will register at the Motorheads Motorcycle Museum and get three raffles tickets there. Then they can take a ride down to Kingsland (a nice ride) to pick-up three more raffle tickets at the Grand Central Cafe restaurant. If you recognize the house below (now the Grand Central Cafe), it's because it was in the original "Texas Chainsaw Massacre" movie.

Be sure to review the Rules for Participation and the reminders on the back of your tour flag.

Later this month, I'll start reviewing the picture submissions and posting them to the tour website.

The video below (made last year) shows how the page will look and how to look-up which of your submissions have been recorded as qualifying stop picture uploads (as of their review date).

We have some great tour sponsors in the lodging business. Click the button below to check their rates and availability.

While not a sponsor, the YO Ranch Hotel will be the host hotel for our event in October.

November 15 - Last day to submit pictures to the Picture Submission Portal.

Scott Littleson (flag 781) is riding the tour this year for the first time. He is also a tour sponsor (representing Red Roof). He told me that a friend of his (Seth) was going to be in Texas this weekend and they were planning to ride to ride to a couple of the hill country tour stops on March 19th.

I met up with Scott and Seth in Bandera and rode to the Flying L Ranch Resort with them. While there, we came across a tour rider taking a picture with his tour flag. It was Pedro Irizarry (flag 781) and his friend Juan Rodriguez.

Scott wanted to ride to the Frio Canyon Motorcycle Stop / Bent Rim Grill from there. Pedro and Juan decided to go with us, so the five of us headed to Leakey (via Hwy 16 to FM 337). That was the first time that Scott and Seth have been on FM 337 (one leg of the "Twisted Sisters"). They were blown away by the curvy roads and great views.

I enjoy riding with tour riders and finding tour riders at tour stops. I hope to see more of y'all at tour stops and at Lone Star Rider's upcoming fund raising event for the American Diabetes Association at the Hill Country Motörhead's Motorcycle Museum.
