Time for T-shirt orders. Click the link down below to place your orders.

The dinner orders will be set up in a few weeks, but the link is not 
ready yet. We will let you know when it's ready. Click on the link in my 
sig file to learn about the HCR. This will be our 6th year and the 
attendance grows a little each year. We don't care if it's 50 or 500 in 
attendance, just come prepared to have a good time and you won't be 
disappointed.
If you've thought about going in the past and always found a reason you 
couldn't make it, why not mark your calendar, sign up on the web site 
and find a reason to not make whatever conflicts with the HCR6.
You guys from the colder climes can trailer on down if it's still too 
cold come early April. It would be a great way to cure the cabin fever. 
The wildflowers will be in bloom and it could be anywhere from 50 to 90 
degrees during the day. Usually it is warm enough to ride with just a 
t-shirt if you like.
Look through the web site if you have been thinking about it and imagine 
sitting down under the oak trees in Luckenbach after a days riding, 
having a cold beverage, watching the people come and go and listening to 
the lies ;-}

This is the link to the HCR6 website. I know it's a ways off, but it's
not too early to start planning. Make your reservations and turn in your
vacation dates. Sign up on the lists. As time gets nearer, we will need
to get a count for the dinner at the Sunday House.
Here is a site I found that has links to some interesting history and
facts about the Hill Country.    http://www.texfiles.com/
Also a link to the best BBQ you'll ever encounter. Cooper's is a 'real
bbq joint' in 'real bbq' country. Chicken, pork ribs, beef ribs, pork
chops, sausage, brisket, sirloin steaks, cabritto..all done to
perfection. It's great to be a carnivore in the Hill Country. They have
slaw, beans, potato salad and other stuff, but why waste gut space on
that when you can have meat and blackberry cobbler ;-]  We always
include at least one planned stop at Coopers and a stop at Luckenbach at
the end of every day's riding. Luckenbach is only about 5 miles from
where we stay in Fredericksburg.
Nothing quite like having a Shiner Bock in Luckenbach, sitting under the
ancient oak trees listening to someone lie about the day's ride ;-}

As the winter begins to creep down from the FN region, start thinking
about warm weather, and explosion of wildflowers, Texas BBQ, and the
best riding you never knew existed..from switch backs, to 90 mph
sweepers that seem to go on forever... I'll be posting some gentle
reminders every now and then lest you forget.

OK, time to start getting ready for the HCR the first weekend of April.
Check the link in my sig file to get the motel info. The Fredericksburg
Lodge is the 'headquarters'. The planned rides leave from there. Across
the street is the Sunday House where we have our dinner. All the details
of the dinner and T-shirts are not finalized yet, but will be in plenty
of time. I'm announcing the dates for the ride now so you can begin
making your plans to attend. There are a block of rooms reserved for
VROC at the Fredericksburg Lodge. I'd suggest getting your reservations
now.

I noticed in this issue of Motorcycle Cruiser, that Jamie Elvridge went
through part of the Hill Country and stopped for a dip in one of the
rivers. You might want to check it out, all she is wearing is a pair of
flip flops!!  She says in the article "....a place I will be visiting
again now that it's headlining on my daydream list.."
Put it on your list too. It really is a beautiful part of the world and
has some of the best motorcycling roads anywhere....
