I think it would be great, especially for riders like me who have not reached the point of taking 7 to 10 hour trips to another state(hopefully next year though for Spyder fest). The only catch would be finding a good neutral spot and a GOOD planning committee that has some ideal of what it will take to pull it off on a small budget. Bottom line is it can be great for the visitors but a lot of work for the organizers.

It could just start out as a one day event. I would think a location in the center of the state that has the most scenic roads would be a start and a committee with representative from different parts of the state.

Would be a long way to drive for one day or would this be a TX only event?

It's not central, but flamingobabe is hosting a BBQ over Memorial Day Weekend just south of Houston. Search for her post for details.

Fredericksburg is a GREAT Hub!!!!! lots of fine riding to be had...
Good motel/hotels in the area, good German eating!!!! lot's of FUN!!!! we go there a few times a year, and have a Valkyrie ride-in there.
-
Sounds great and I will help if needed. One idea from spyderfest that would make it great is to enlist a dealer at the central location to help sponsor it.

Fredricksburg is a natural central hill country location
I think Fredricksburg is a great choice for size, hotels, location and roads and scenery. If other states can do it Texas surely can.

We can talk more about this idea.We need to get a committee together, Anyone from the Hill Country area want to help? I think a good staging place would be Frio canyon motorcycle Stop.
-
Fredericksville is a great Central area
I love that area and try to go there as much as possible 20 Miles from Kerrville and a full day of the three sister ride is do-able. But alas I can not make it till Jan we will be there all winter. Vist my sisters store on 410main st (The Amish Wharehouse) I can not wait to get there in late fall.
Wish it were sooner.

Be glade to help, need to get a list of all spyder in the area.

I agree with the keep it simple gathering. Pick a place, motel, what most want to do, No vendors, no hassles. Lets get together and enjoy the riding and meeting other riders. It does not need to be a big pain in the butt to do this. KISS!!!!!! Fredericksburg would be a great place to have a gathering. It has motels and everything else we want. Great area to ride, I ride there all the time, there are great small roads that are beautiful to ride.

...in the pink (Girls On Spyders)
I will help put together a Texas Ride-in....I agree someone needs to have a meeting in a central location...I opt for F'burg's....to me it is fun to stay at hotel that is walking distance to town....evening walk and eat and a couple of adult beverages....at the end of town there is Super 8, Sunday House, Hampton Inn...all about 2 or 3 blocks from town.....

Seems like we have a lot of ryders in this state and could make it a big success. Agree that if this is to become a reality then a planning committee needs to be formed to start looking into places to hold the event and what all would be involved. Could probably get some very good pointers from Len or others in the MO gang- at least to learn from their mistakes! I'll help if needed!
