You guys need to move to central Texas and ride with us. Come on!

It was a good day today. I left the leathers and wore mesh. A high of 82 me thinks. Enjoyed the ride guys, thanks for coming out.

Looks like you all had a blast. El Paso has seen some cold mornings but by the afternoon, it's been pretty warm! Wish i could have been there!!!!

Can I join the Austin pak even though I'm halfway across the state???? Are there any other members out west?

Here's the notice for January. Come with ideas about our 2008 schedule. We want to get it fixed early this year so our RATs can plan for those weekends.


January 7th, 6:30pm
Monthly Bike Night
Our regular monthly bike is at Opal Divine's north location. We meet the first Monday of the month at 6:30PM.

Opal Divine's "The Marina"
12709 Mopac & Parmer Lane in North Austin
(512) 733-5353

The pub is in front of Fry's, on the north east corner of Mopac and Parmer.

We talked about doing a couple of track days this year either at Cresson or TWS 160/100 miles away. Now an Austin track company has a track in San Marcos. So now just thirty miles out, we'll try and get a few track days in. I'd really like to see some Bonnies show up, this track is tight and lacks the long straights at TWS.

You can always join the Austin RAT Pack Forum if you like, we had a guy sign up from Bristol, England and have a few from Houston and DFW.

We are talking about doing a RAT Pack ride out to Big Bend either April or May.

March 2nd - Elgin volunteer fire dept. BBQ fundraiser

We'll set a time as the ride nears, but probably around 9:00-9:30am.

Meet at the gas station on the northwest corner of Parmer and Lamar. Ride east towards Taylor, back south to Blue, then west into Elgin. I'm going to pre-ride to check on road construction, then will post a route.

The destination is the SPJST Hall on Hwy 95 just north of Elgin. Lunch begins at 11:00am.
