Texas Hill Country 2016 4th Annual Spyders In The Hills

[dlsmith]

We hope to nail down host Motel next week. Lots to do as quickly as we can. We will talk with Motel 6 as well as another couple we have in mind. Hopefully we can get some group discounts. Will keep you informed as soon as we know.

We negotiated the best rates we could for Fairfield Inn and Suites, Best Western and Motel 6. Please see Spyders in the Hills FB page for prices and instructions on how to get our group rate. Progress

We're on! Dates are Friday & Saturday October 14th & 15th. Diane and I are working to put it all together this year - Daryl Ingram, who has handled it the last two years, is willing to help, but he is traveling and unable to spearhead it. We will post further info as it becomes available. The FB page is Texas Hill Country 2016 4th Annual Spyders In The Hills. Anyone who would like to help, please contact us. Diane is dianelsmith77@gmail.com, Ray is raysmith1944@gmail.com. Rydes will include the world-famous Twisted Sisters.

Information about hotels and registration are on Texas Hill Country 2016 4th Annual Spyders in the Hills FB page. Hope to see you at the rally!

I made reservations for Fairfield, also. This will be the last event of a big round-robin tour to the NorCal rally and the Red Rocks rally. If I run out of money before the Hill Country, I'll cancel and just go home, or switch to Motel 6.

[raysmith]

It's going on my calendar. I'm so glad it's going on. Thank you. Is it still going to be in Boerne at the same dealer?

Yes, we'll be based out of Coyote Powersports again. See our FB page [Texas Hill Country 4th Annual Spyders In The Hills] for info on registration (new this year) and hotels.

Be sure to register for the rally (as well as make hotel reservations) if you want to join us for the meals, and get a t-shirt.
You can do that with the link on our FB page.
Looking forward to seeing y'all!

[raysmith]

Why is it in Boerne and not in Kerrville? I have been down a couple times but I thought it started and ended in Kerrville, but not sure?

Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G920A using Tapatalk

Shane, I think the ride started from Kerrville three years ago (2013 - we missed that one), but the last two years (2014 and 2015) and this year, things are starting from Coyote Powersports in Boerne.

[raysmith]

Will be registration be on a web-site or FB?

There is a link on our FB page to register for the rally. There is also info posted on hotels. Looking forward to seeing you!

Ah, didn't know it was at a dealership. Makes sense now. Well we are all registered and room reserved. In SA right now picking up a RT-622. Will def make the trip down nicer no having to cram everything in the Spyder. Look forward to meeting everyone.

Will be looking for your registration to come through the system. Not sure how that happens on weekends - whether it goes automatically, or whether it requires human intervention.
See you in October!

TheBest of the Hill Country


Note:This event is focused on Spyder ryders, but all riders are welcome.Please invite your friends, regardless of whether they are on threewheels or two!


Twoguided rydes are planned for 2016 Spyders in the Hills rally
First:
TheThree (Twisted) Sisters
Thisryde has been written up in many cycle magazines. The route includesState Highways 335, 336 and 337, and from Leakey TX can be riddenclockwise or counterclockwise. As we did last year, we will plan alunch stop in Leakey TX at the Bent Rim (buy your own lunch). Thisis a well-known motorcycle-friendly establishment.


Second:
EnchantedRock Ryde
Thisryde starts by following the route of the Old Number 9 railroad linebetween Boerne and Fredericksburg, with a stop for lunch at AlamoSprings Cafe (buy your own lunch). Ask anyone who has eaten there,“who makes the BEST burgers you've ever had?” Thumbs up theanswer will be “Alamo Springs Cafe.” This is another well-knownmotorcycle-friendly establishment. The ryde continues throughhistoric Fredericksburg and out Highway 965 to Enchanted Rock. Circle back via the Willow City Loop (also written up in magazines)with a stop at Harry's on the Loop for refreshments. Continue onHill Country back roads to the small famous town of Luckenbach. (Remember the song “Let's go to Luckenbach Texas with Waylon andWillie and the boys?” It all started here.) The ryde returns toBoerne by way of the tiny community of Sisterdale.


Weplan to offer both of these rydes on both days, Friday October 14^thand Saturday October 15^th.
Bothof these rydes should be on your bucket list. The scenery is amongthe best in the Hill Country, and is most likely the absolute best.

[dlsmith]

We have noticed several have made hotel reservations, but have not registered for the rally. Don't want you to miss out on the fun. Friday is Fiesta night hosted by Coyote Powersports and Saturday is BBQ. Also if you register before September 13 you get an event T-shirt. Online registration is on Texas Hill Country 2016 4th Annual Spyder in the Hills Facebook page. Click on the event tab.
