Kerrville '09 will be February 20th-22nd
This year's Kerrvile Run will be on Saturday, 21 February. The Hill Country offers some of the best roads in Texas for a cruise. This is great run for the twistie folks out there. It's a big drive, about 350 miles. This is about the roads and we'll be driving ALL day with stops for bio breaks and gas only. No sit down lunch. I'm moving it up in the year to try lessen the number of Investment Banker Bikers we have deal with. A lot of them are kinda slow on the whole "Share the Road" concept.
The rooms will be at the Whitten Inn (830.896.1511)for $62 per night. Ask for the SWSC rate, if you're given anything other than $62, Amanda is our contact. I've got 10 rooms blocked, but they'll honor any above that number and that price is good through 22 January. I didn't know how many of the South Texas folks will be in a position to make the trip after Ike, so I didn't reserve more rooms.
This is a very technical course and we'll be up on the edge of the envelope for a large portion of the day. Everyone drives to their own comfort level and no one gets left behind.
Radios are mandatory. Please don't show up without a radio or without arrangements for borrowing one. Communications are vital to ensure a safe trip for everyone. We'll divide into groups according to how hard you want to go so everyone has a good run.
For the North Texas area folks, we'll meet in the Albertson's parking lot on the corner of 377 and 820, 20 February, at 9:45 for the drive down 281. Lunch along the way at the Country Kitchen (spelled with a "C", always a good sign) in Lampasas, with a winery stop in Marble Falls. Raspberry Champagne-very yummy. I need how many in your car and what group (Fast or Not So Fast) you want to be in.
OK. Now that the Holiday Madness™ is over, it's time to start getting your head right with twisties. Hope to see y'all there.
