    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Living in Austin,Tx; Luckenbach, Tx is only about 70 miles away and with so many beautiful roads going from Austin to there it is one of my favorite afternoon rides. Last year I got the wild hair in that Oct afternoon and made some phone calls. Before long I had five friends and four bikes at my house. When got on the road and found our way to Luckenbach, when we got there it was to our surprise, we found a Vintage Motorcycle Rally in full swing. Now I had heard stories from my Grandfather about motorcyles like theNorton Commando, BSA Rocket, American Mustang, Henderson in line four and Scott Flier. Well for the first time in my life I got to see a Mustang and a Henderson sitting almost side by side with Norton's, BSA's, Indains, Jawa's and some of the early Jap Bikes. The parking lot was like a bike show of it's own. With custom bikes, tour bikes and sport bikes all in the same row. Well it was not until weeks later that I learned it was a annual thing. So I looked it up online and found that it is a Rally to raise money for Charities. It is on my list of things to do again this year. You can learn more about it at

Thanks for the heads up! We have 2 semi organized Hill country rides a year and the harvest classic would be of interest to most of us. Looks like the '07 event is the weekend of Oct. 19-21. Guess we need to start planning our Fall HC ride. Hope you can join us.

Sounds like a plan. I'm down to minor details on my bike so it will be ready in plenty of time.
 
Harvest Classic

Harvest Classic

the 2007 Harvest Classic has come to a close. I had an amazing weekend with the bike of today and yesterday. I rode my '82 Magna and placed second in the 1980-1985 category. Hopefully next year I can take my GS. We only rode 353 miles but the roads were curvious, the food was GREAT! and the company was priceless!
 
what won? the Motomorini 500? or that rat bike Virago with the water pipe intake and twin torpedo gas tanks??
