Oct
10-16, 2003 - Island Run - Galveston, TX |
| CD was scheduled to attend a work
conference in Galveston, TX, so he & Bear rode their motorcycles down to the gulf
coast for the event. The first leg of the trip took them to Wylie Texas (near Dallas) for
an overnight stay on Friday. CD got ejected from a C&W Nightclub that night (long
story), but daughter Jen and son-in-law Hoss said they enjoyed having them anyway.
Saturday, the journey to Galveston continued with a lot of great riding. The beach at
Galveston Island West was terrific for cruising on motorcycles, the food along Seawall
Blvd was delicious, and of course, a stop by Woody's Biker Bar on Seawall Blvd was a must.
Several merchants asked if the pair had been to the rally the weekend before. They told
them "no", but hope to make it next year for the 2nd annual event. Since this
trip was both of a personal and business nature, you may notice a change in accommodations
in the photos. CD & Bear like to go "economy lodging" if not camping, while
the conference was conducted at one of the finer hotels. The return trip to Anadarko OK on
the following Thursday was another day of excellent riding conditions. It's the ride that
keeps this pair going. |

Aug 29
- Sept 01, 2003 - Rally in the Rockies - Ignacio, CO |
| CD, Bear, and daughter Jen made
their first return trip to a major rally. Schedules were tight, so we opted to haul to
this event. Being from this area originally, and having relatives still living in the
area, the Ignacio rally is more like a homecoming to us than just a rally. We got about
500 miles of riding in while there, including a run around through New Mexico and Arizona
to the 4-corners Monument. Except for the expected afternoon thunder showers, the weather
was great for motorcycle cruising. Of course, having the pickup along gave us the perfect
opportunity to stop in Espanola NM and pick up a couple of large bags of Hatch Green Chili
to restock the freezer! And we didn't forget to get a couple of dozen of those famous
Romero Tamales either! There's nothing like the smell when Bear roasts her newest
batch of green chili! |

& Bear rode up around through Omaha NE to join son Daniel for this run to Sturgis SD.
After enjoying the rally and beginning the return trip, Daniel peeled off at Ft Lupton CO,
to make a swing down through western Colorado to see his Grandparents and friends. CD
& Bear made the return trip down through eastern Colorado, New Mexico, Texas
Panhandle, and back into Oklahoma. It was our first long run with no suport vehicle, and
everything went well. It was a great run. |
