Iron angels is happenin now in Libery Texas see texas rallies for a link to more info.
Also on the 21 the Legionaires will be hosting a charity ride outta JJ's bar just out side of Livingston Texas. To provide some Thanks giving diners for some unfortunate families.
This is the last ride rally post I will make as there are no Texans here to go to any
I have no faith in human perfectability. I think that human exertion will have no appreciable effect upon humanity. Man is now only more active - not more happy - nor more wise, than he was 6000 years ago.

Brother, I enjoy riding, and do it as often as I can, but I honestly hate big rallies or gatherings. A small group of riders sharing some twisties, and then sitting down together to share a bite and tell lies is more my style. It just seems that whenever you get a bunch of "bikers" together, even if its a charity ride, they act like a bunch of idiots. Maybe I've just had some bad experiences though...
Where abouts are you exactly? We need to plan a day ride for the Texas folks, I know there are several guys in the Houston area and few here in DFW that we might be able to pressure into joining us. We can just pick a restaurant somewhere, and have everyone meet up for lunch or something. I can think of plenty of destinations throughout East Texas that would be perfect for a meet and greet.
Learning from my mistakes... again and again.

I live in Cleveland Texas.I am not sure where rockwall is by I will google map it. Sorry to hear you have had such bad experiences. This is an American legion event. They tend to have pretty good controll of events however. No pressure from me live and ride free. That would be cool to get together over some lunch or what have you. Weekends are better for me because I work a day job during the week. A weekend respit from the Holidays may be inorder.

I'm not a fan of big rallies, either. The last one I went to was the last one I plan on going to. Smaller rallies are more my speed. Hey Loco, want some company for the 21st? I know where Livingston is.

Alright guys Sunday the 21st we are going to ride out from JJ's bar "where the good times roll" on a charity run. We are trying to raise enough money to give a Thanksgiving meal to some poor families because some ill fate has befallen them, and have found themselves in need. Just 20 bones per bike. The ride will be escorted, and you will have the privelage to ride with the Legionaires, the Patriot gaurd, BACA, along with many other noble riders who gather for the good of others.

I will now retract this statment now that I have met at least four guys from the great state of Texas in this forum. Thats kinda odd I made this post and Texans started appearing. Must be devine providence

San Antoinio area here (30 miles east actually). Love to ride the Texas Hill Country. Avoid the large rallies, to expensive, commercialized, and crowded. Did ride in the Texas Honor Ride on the 13th Nov. About 600 riders I estimated (not sure though). Usually just doing the lone rider thing up into the hill country around Wimberly and out to Leakey. I do belong to the New Braunfels VFW Motorcycle Group.
