The pictures i'll just add to the folder with the rest... its up to 150+ now...
The videos can be put up on you tube, which is what I did with MMR's creek crossing.
The head camera I had worked... it took 25 minute videos... the volume works well to start but as soon as wind or engine noise starts...the sound kind of mutes out.
ROFL.... I went through it so fast I did not see any water crossings... but I did catch the part where the deer ran in front of Art... and I got a couple seconds of the fawn bouncing off the fence.
Some how or another I can not seem to get to the IP address to download the zip.... bing interferes and I haven't done a dos command screen download on the new windows setup.
I'll try with chrome or Linux and see....

Oh and PS...... if you have emailed me something... please re-email me.... I deleted my spam folder stuff and thought I seen a savage something or other in it for the split second that I took to hit the garbage can thing.

I didn't email you.. but I'm used to being thrown in the trash..

If you still have problems with the IP ftp thingy, give me a call at work tomorrow if you are available during the day tomorrow.

Most motorcycle problems are caused by the nut between the seat and the handlebars. Make sure yours isn't too tight or too loose.

I spent the day catching up on chores .   I was glad to see my cows still where I left them.   I haven't unloaded my phone pictures yet but just looked at the ones posted here , they look good !  Cheesy

I have school tomorrow morning but I hope to get my pictures in the computer tomorrow evening ... and save some of the ones already posted here (better camera = better pictures)  .

There was a wreck on the interstate east of Huston so my GPS directed me around it through a residential area and when I got out of town I was on I-69 headed North.   It was shorter distance but it still took two days to get home.  

It was a great 4 days worth of ridding !  Smiley    

More tomorrow

Here are the roads actually ridden during the day rides.
The lettered points are explained for each map where appropriate.
Some points just put to adjust the route for good mileage readings.

Saturday http://goo.gl/maps/CX2sZ
B.  Flooded creek crossing.  If those 4x4 big trucks ain't going through, I don't think we should..  Shocked   Turn around.
C. Sign says road is closed ahead because of high water.  Turn around again.
D. Tower road.  Steep, tight twist, 30mph max kind of road.
E. If you zoom in, you will see Hein road.  That is the way we went.  Google says it doesn't go through to Waring Road, but it does.  You can even see street view all the way through.
First wet crossing that was passable.
F. Alamo Springs Cafe.  LUNCH!!!  Cheesy
G. Just a gas stop
H - I .  Willow City Loop, and the mad dash back to Harry's.  Barely made it before the hail hit.
J. Getting late, getting dark, trying to rain.  Back to base, and made it dry.    Smiley


Sunday http://goo.gl/maps/UWeMN
B. The ranch entrance that looks like a mission.
C. Stone Henge II
D.  The Sisters.  Went clockwise around the loop 337, 335, 41, 336.
E. Frio Canyon Motorcycle Stop and Bent Rim Grill.  Git yer swag and bling here!  Grin
F. Gas stop.   Then the last part of the Sisters on 337 towards Vanderpool
G. Stopped in Medina to eat, they were closed already.  Sent the boys up the Sweet 16 so they could ride over the
H. Hump
and I rode home to San Antonio.

Monday - map 1 http://goo.gl/maps/npoZj
B. Met the group in Comfort and had breakfast tacos
C. Skyline Drive - scenic picture spot
D. The "mansion" Time Ship cryogenic research facility.
E-F.  There's that google glitch again for Hein road.  And this time the crossing was dry.
G. There be buffalo here!!
H. The booming megapolis of Kendalia.  General Store and Post Office.
I. Gas stop.. Versy was on reserve.
J. U R Lost.. really.. it says so.
K. The very pretty scenic stop.  
L. Middle Creek "where did the road go?" creek bed crossing.
N. BBQ at Miss Mae's  yummers.  Cool
P. Ran out of google map points.  On to

Map 2  http://goo.gl/maps/9rpSA
B. Devil's Backbone.  Really.. it' just a few twisties, but fun.
C. Shade Tree Saloon and Grill.  Very much a biker hangout.  And where I said "adios amigos" to the gang.   Sad
Sent them on their way west on 473, and I went home along some back roads.

Plus or minus a few... LOL, I had to make a detour to see the Super Dome in New Orleans... never been there. Roll Eyes Tongue
