    We're ready to roll out.. tomorrow, Friday 23rd March.. Departure time is
    at 5:00PM and we'll run toward Laredo, Tx. on the first leg of the trip..
    The border crossing will be around 10 AM Saturday the 24th and we will
    have a long day of travel in Mexico.. The visiting and sight seeing is fan-
    tastic and the daytime running in Mexico is always enjoyable..

    Arrival in Guadalajara will probably be the middle of the day on Sunday
    the 25th.. I guess we'll commence the ride back to Texas when everyone
    is ready and the return trip will be much like the one we made last year..

    Lookout Devil's Backbone.. There's at least two of the riders on this run
    that will be pushing their limits when we get to that area of the ride..

    This old Green Vulcan is primed and more than ready for this run.. New
    rubber on the ground.. new clutches.. valve adjustment.. brakes and re-
    built carburetor.. <sigh> Sure hope the old senior citizen is as ready as
    the motorcycle.. lol.. Gonna be a great ride, this year.. Everyone is
    telling
    me the weather down there is spectacularly nice for biking.. That's what
    we all like to hear, isn't it ? Regards

    I always carry plenty of octane booster and Seafoam.. to add to my gas
    tank..
    LOL.. Some of the places where I might be forced to buy gas.. is
    questionable..

    Hey pard.. there'll be other trips and soon as you get cleared up, we'll be
    making
    them.. That is.. provided this old Green Vulcan stands up with all the mods
    that
    I've done to it, this past year.. This trip will be a real test for it..
    Regards

    Yup, it'll be a good ride and should give that Vulcan a chance to blow
    out some of the cobwebs it managed to get this past winter.

    Of course, a good wash/wax might be the best start of getting rid of
    the cobwebs....

    See ya in a little while and we'll get this ride underway....got
    plenty of tequila to get the ride started?

    Save that tequilla, in case ya‘LL run out of seafoam, or visa-versa.

    I know you guys will all have a good time.

    Ride safe, but also try to keep up with Wakko.

    Brian, you just might meet your match riding the Mexico Twisties,
    according to what I've heard about wakko glen's gliding along through
    those curvy roads.
    (chuckle) regards.

    Did you have a flat on the trailer after leaving East Texas to Forney?

    Ed, Mr. Hart..)


    had 3 flats, as we pulled out of the yard.
