Beautiful in Shiner, TX

[skypup]

For all you stuck in the snow (we use to be) thought you could dream of being on yesterday's ride from the San Antonio/Houston areas for a ride to Shiner, TX where we all went for lunch. It was a cloudless, sunny day and got to 71 degrees in the afternoon. Beautiful wide open expanses and a group leader who kept things safe and enjoyable. Funny thing about spyders, the more you ride them, the more you want to ride! My wide and I covered about 310 miles yesterday and we were still sad when the ride ended. This will show the number of bikes in our group. We put them together for a group shot.

Nice...Gives the rest of us snow- and ice-bound folks hope!

(I'm still struck by how the RT's look like semi-trailers next to the '08's!)

You have a good sized group there!!

We have the sun. Just not the temperatures!!! And then there's that pesky wind to deal with.

Couldn't have asked for a better day!

Never saw that many :spyder2:in one place before...
Even at a dealership.

Just a few pics and you'll get an idea. Don't they look good at the pumps? No wonder so many people stop and ask questions. I challenge you to find a cloud in the sky!

I would love to see more pictures and close up of that Spyder with the American Flag, is that paint or decal.

You're welcome SpyderWolf. It's great sharing the spyder experience with other spyder lovers who you know enjoy the experience as much as you do.

I'm jealous here in the panhandle of Texas we have had snow for a week and temps barely above freezing. It's amazing what a difference of 500 miles will make in the weather.

Looks like a fine 'winter' day! That made me wish we were back in Texas - at least during this time of year through April.

Definitly stuck in the snow here, with at least 2' on the ground. It's been that way for the last two months, and snowing again now. :gaah:

Sounds like a great ride :2thumbs:

It was a great day, and I had a lot of fun meeting and chatting with the group. Mark and I have put some more photos of the event at the Meetup site, http://www.meetup.com/San-Antonio-Spyder-Ryders/photos/820469/. I've more to add, but ran out of time (I'm at the airport again...)

Peace!
