Three Sisters Ride

[murph35640]

Got in about 700 miles yesterday, looks like it's gonna be a wet 250 today! Sittin in a hotel room in Palestine, Tx. watching it rain. Gonna give it a little while longer and see if it passes through before we head out.

I am assuming you are doing the Three Twisted Sisters? Buddy and I are planning on taking that ride a bit later this year. We are south of where you are in Alvin, south of Houston. Be safe, small roads, loose gravel and lots of twists.

Just got home from my trip to Texas, the Twisted Sisters is a good ride. Personally I like the riding in the East Tennessee area better but West Texas certainly has its good points! Got in a total of a little over 2600 miles on this trip including an Iron Butt 1,007 mile ride home in 18 hours! That is my longest one day ride so far but I have done several 700+ mile rides, as usual the Venture performed flawlessly and I am still in awe of this bike! Mine is a 2008 with 40,000 miles and I just don't believe that anything else can compare to the Venture when it comes to comfort.

Everybody is posting about nice rides while I sit here not being able to ride, and dont know how soon I will be able to. Glad you had a great ride, I cant wait to get back on the trike.

Lewis, you would have enjoyed this one too. I went with a friend of mine to the Texas Trike Reunion. It's a bunch of folks from the GL1800 riders group that do this every year. Had some really good riding and met some really nice folks!

i know exactly how you feel Lewis i have taken the faring apart on the left side since i cant ride i am going into this blind and dont plan on getting in to deep as i dont have parts and or the tools to do everything i should do to it but i can crank it up and put it in gear and let it run for a little while so she thinks shes going somewhere
