(all mods except BIG piston and carb change have been done, but do not show)

Come now Kelly, take the plunge and get the other "2 out of 3" primary mod's done, the BIG piston and VM carb.  
Heck, you could even get one of the 94mm Wiseco's and make it really easy on your self.
You know you will like it.

Oldfeller, friend of many years, jesting you am I. 😁

I understand the changing desires when riding, that is a "me too thing".
I do like playing with my Savage though on short straight-a-ways with a quick twist of the throttle, but speed and such on curves has diminished a good bit.

Anyway, my comment in the early morning hours was me just being a little froggy.  I was up with a migraine, taking a shot and eating some pain pills and starting to feel a little better.

The texas twisted sister trip is aprilish.  The cabins are never full up, so it can be decided a few weeks before hand.  Which would be good to consult MMR on weather.

Have not talked, I'm waiting for more info from other sources on scheduling.  I just don't know at this point.

Message for MM

Next, focusing on DAY 1 which starts by meeting up at LAKE CITY FLORIDA off of I-75 here are your choices of eating places to meet up at ......

https://www.google.com/maps/place/Osceola+Shooting+Range/@30.1785963,-82.6862...

OK, pull your eyes over to the right to the meet up type eating place choices (and quit looking at that free to the public rifle range that is just down the street from us, along with 4 pretty decent looking gun stores).

You will be tired from the trip and hungry too, so let's meet at a nice place to eat and get that all settled up before going off into the alligator bushes to go camping.

Big question: did you want to meet up on Thursday the 8th or Friday the 9th as we are meeting way up high in Florida (to minimize day one travel time and still get decent camping night time temperatures) and we are still a half a day out from Daytona at that elevation.   We could meet on Thursday and then still hit Daytona at the very start of the Bike Week circus before it gets so crowded it is impossible to travel on the roads.

Which day, Thursday the 8th or Friday the 9th?

Yes, we will be going to    https://freecampsites.net/#!96&query=sitedetails   with two nearby overflow camps to fall back upon if it happens to be full.

Next, I called the Cracker Barrel and they do not have wifi at that location.   Across the road is a Ruby Tuesday that does have free wifi so we can look stuff up, locate things, etc. as we sit and eat and talk.   Ruby serves a killing good burger and a really top notch salad bar, so you could think of it as an eating upgrade ..... or I can wait at Ruby's free wifi and when you show up we can go wherever you want.




Have you rigged up up a charging cable for your phone off your bike yet?




Now, to keep from getting lost from each other, go to your android phone and use the phone's Google PlayStore and get the Life360 app and put it on your phone (it's free).  

Looks like this symbol    https://www.life360.com/

Open up the app on the phone and join a group (Group code is TDS-QHH).

If you are successful doing this you will see a dot for me and a dot for you.   Call me if you have issues getting this to work (if needed you can start the group and give me the code and I'll join you)

Yep, it is so on join up day I can see how far out you are and judge if I have time to catch a gun store or two before heading to Ruby Tuesday.

Well, lookie there -- I gots me a new dot that says MM Ranch and even has a picture to it.

Boy, you are getting all upscale on us, ain't ya ?

OK, I got you a picture of the only one available at the time.    

Riding somebody's race bike around the track leaves me kinda cold, and no bike that I would likely ever really ride would even get the track excited enough to yawn about it.

Face it son, we are getting old .....  

But I will sit in the stands with a book and watch you wait in line.
