    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Hey GSR
I'm traveling to San Antonio next week, and will have free time on Tuesday.
I'd love to add the state of Texas to my motorcycle map...
Anybody in SA who's willing to let me hop on their bike for a few miles?
 
Your about a month to early. I am moving to SA at the end of the month. Leaving right after Memorial day. Would gladly have let you take the old girl for a ride. There are lots of nice places to ride when you get out of the city. Hope you find something.
 
Some rental options in SA.

if you have 6-8 hours, head toward Leaky not Fredericksburg nor keervile ( those are more touristy). For better riding roads head to fm337 & 336 & 335. Look for frio canyon motorcycle stop near Leaky.

(I have been there twice)
 
Hi, My very first post here on GSR. The roads Redman referred to are known as The Three Twisted Sisters - perhaps the best know motorcycle route in Texas. Absolutely beautiful this time of year. I live in South Austin and have ridden many of the "Hill Country" roads in the region. If you do ride the Sisters, try to stop in at the Lone Star Motorcycle Museum in Vanderpool, TX. Well worth the $7 to get in. Sorry I don't have my GS ready to ride, otherwise I'd help you add the great state of Texas.

Welcome to The GSR. Would be good for you to introduce yourself in the Owners section.

I went to a Texas Hill Country ride organised here on the GSR in 2005. Was great.
Then in 2009 our daughter had a long term assignment in San Antionio area (NewBraunfels, Sequin), so had to go visit her, and rent a bike for a day.... had to.

I recommend the area to about any rider, and tell them they should do it before any more of the roads get "improved".

Anyway, do introduce yourself some more in your own posting. Can chat more then.
 
Thanks for asking! Vanderpool is 70 miles west of me. I'll ask the family if they're interested!
I have my cousin asking a buddy if I could ride one of his bikes -- my cousin has a friend who has a collection of Royal Enfields maybe? Also might have a little Kaw available. I told my cousin to tell his buddy I'm a man of God, so we'll see. It could happen tonight, but I'm not really counting on it.

Also
 
Kerry, It sounds like you may be north of San Antonio - perhaps New Braunfels??? If you do get a bike to ride, I can plot a good route for you. The roads north and west of New Braunfels are my go-to rides for late afternoon or evenings when I have an hour or so to decompress. Some very nice loops to experience.
 
Not far from UTSA, ten or eleven o'clock on the 1604 loop.

My cousin's friend is out of town and I fly home Wednesday noon, so no go this trip. Oh well.

Come the extra 250 miles to see me on the border, and I'll let you take my 1100 for a spin. Go right up to the border if you like. However, I'm not sure I'd like to see it go ACROSS the border. :)
