Gentlemen, let’s ride this Sunday!
We will meet at Black Bear Diner in Katy for breakfast at 7:00 AM. Please arrive with a full gas tank. We should be back in Katy around 2:30 PM for lunch to conclude the day.
We will take three small 20-minute breaks for coffee and stretching.
(Please remember, I am not a fast rider, and this is not a fast, adrenaline-pumping ride.)

Ride Rules for Safety, Inclusion, and Minimal Confusion:
- Ride Your Own Ride: Your participation indicates that you understand and accept full responsibility for your own safety, well-being, passengers, and property. You also confirm that you carry insurance as required by Texas law and possess a valid motorcycle license.
- Use Your Bright Lights: Please ride with your high beams on, except for the rider immediately behind the leader. Carry emergency contact information.
- Gear Up for Safety: Follow ATGATT (All The Gear, All The Time)—this includes a helmet, jacket, riding pants (preferably armored), over-the-ankle boots, and gloves.
- Start with a Full Tank: Ensure your gas tank is full before departure. Plan to cover 125 miles between gas stops, and never pass up an opportunity to refuel when we stop.
- No Stunting: This is not a ride for stunts—no wheelies, stoppies, or reckless maneuvers of any kind.
- Breaking Off? Let Someone Know: If you decide to leave the group, please wave at someone so we know it was intentional.
- Watch Out for Fellow Riders: Keep an eye on the rider behind you. If you lose sight of them, turn around and check what happened. Let’s not leave anyone behind.
- Waiting at Turns: At any point where a turn signal is required, we will wait until the last rider (Sweep Rider) makes the turn before continuing.
- Check Your Tire Pressure: Before leaving home, check your cold tire pressure. If checking when warm, add 4 lbs. to compensate.
Looking forward to a fun and safe ride! See you Sunday
