Steve, thanks, but we're probably not gonna make it Saturday. I've got a guy with a 'dozer coming to el ranchito, and I'll need to stick around and make sure he clears what I want cleared. But if that doesn't come to pass, I might hop on the Road Sofa and swing by to suck a few heads! rt | ||

Didn't you do dozer work last year? What are you gonna do plow every tree on the place down???Gonna have to start calling you MR. T. I will tell you the story later if you haven"t heard it. | ||
| Road_thing |
Yeah, we did, it looked so good, we decided to do some more. The guy brought his machine out to the place before Thanksgiving, it broke down just after the rain started. By the time he got it fixed and brought it back out, the place was so soggy he got stuck to the axles and it's been there ever since! He's gonna try again... Since your last visit, we've had a family of beavers take up residence in the pond. I may become a fur trapper! rt | ||

Anyone riding in the morning? | ||

Where in the tarnation is El Ranchito Chingadero? No hable espanyawl!!! How long a ride from Houston??? | ||
| Road_thing |
El Ranchito is around Brenham, about 85 miles NW of Houston. I live in Bellaire, and it takes me about 1:15 to get there via 290. Give me a headcount so I can plan food & drinks. I'll e-mail maps to those attendees who don't already know how to get there. There is plenty of room for camping, as long as you don't demand hook-ups or sanitary facilities! Don't count on bed space indoors, my clan usually fills up all the available beds! rt | ||

My wife and I are planning to attend. We will probably just stay the day and then go home. I will need another map please. ddunn@satx.rr.com | ||

| Philip |
i am planning to make it and will bring pies! i carried three pies last time with no problem so give me your favorites. the only thing that might get in the way is rachel's surf contest that keeps getting postponed. supposed to be april 2nd and 3rd if the surf is good. with luck it will all work out. philip | ||

I live in Fairfield - way out 290 way. Is this get to gather by invitation or can any Bueller join in? | ||
| Hootowl |
I am there. Or at least, I will be. Damn, and I just got all the mud cleaned off from the last time. I have a rather large tent, so if you don't have one, don't sweat it. RR, you want to meet up at your place before we head out? | ||
| Road_thing |
Joele, you're invited. PM me with your e-mail address for a map. rt | ||

RT: Count me in! Can I send you some funds to help out with the chow? Or, can I bring parts of dead animals along to through on the grill? Bill | ||
| Road_thing |
Outstanding! This might be the best one yet (if I don't get called to NYC to justify my continued presence on the payroll)! Bill, no need. If the head count gets high enough I'll just put out a jar for contributions. rt | ||

Just wanted to let everybody know that I've finally gotten all the pics from last October's Twisted Texas BRAG Adventure and Thrills In The Hills IV posted over in the Tale Section under the heading "Thrills In The Hills IV" Check it out! Thanks, J | ||

Hey are any of you members of a local Buell club? Mancuso sponsors "Houston Streetfighters" and I've been meaning to call Keith to find out more but thought I would check here first. Thank you | ||
| Road_thing |
Mike: Not me. There was talk of starting a BRAG chapter a few years ago but as far as I know it never got off the ground. Maybe that's what Mancuso is doing? There are a bunch of Buell riders/BWB'ers up your way: Hootowl, Roadrunr, B2M2, Rem and probably some others I've forgotten to name. Try to join us at el Ranchito Chingadero outside Brenham on Sat 16 April! rt | ||
| Roadrunr |
Sorry just got back from vacation so I haven't been lurking. HOOT that sounds good to me if you want to meet here. | ||
| Road_thing |
Back to the top! OK, among the confirmed I count: Dan y esposa, Hootowl, Roadrunr, B2M2 and Philip the Pie-Man. Hopefully some of you other Houston/Austin/San Antonio types can make it. Give me a head count, guys! rt | ||

Saturday April 16 at el Ranchito Chingadero -- Back to the top! rt | ||
| Birdsong |
RT, I would love to join you guys but I have a company function that day, it too involves BBQ, crawfish and beer...... | ||
| Road_thing |
Well, you have to work with those guys every day--you only get to hang out with the Buell bunch on special occasions! Hey, it's only a job--you were looking for work when you found that one, right? rt | ||
| Roadrunr |
R.T. never said anything about no CRAWFISH at his place!!Your company hiring this week brent??  | ||
| Road_thing |
Hey, you want crawfish, I saw some mud-castles dwn by the pond... | ||
| Philip |
we finally had enough surf for rachel's contest to take place. not good surf but everybody had the same junk so all's fair! she placed 3rd in her heat but only 2 advance so she was bit disappointed. still had a fun day and surfed a little more off to the side. anyhoo.. it frees us up for next weekend and work looks good to take off saturday. are any wives or kids going to be there or is this a testosterone laden scratch and spit event? i will bring three pies on the bike and more if needed if the girls follow in the car. let me know if i can do anything else. looking forward to seeing ya'll. philip | ||
| Road_thing |
Thanks, Philip! It's definitely a family event -- if they want to come, bring 'em! Apple, cherry, coconut cream and lemon meringue are my personal favorites... All you other guys, I'll need a head count by this Thursday for food & beverage planning. I think we'll throw some burgers and dogs on the grill, plus the left-over brisket from last year (don't worry, it's been in the freezer!) rt | ||
| Philip |
family event sounds good. kathy, rachel and i will be there. pies will be there also. looking forward to a relaxing day in the country. philip |
