Monthly Austin ride

Posted on by

The Austin monthly ride is Saturday, July 7th. This month’s ride is a 100 mile loop to Marble Falls.

The Austin TARA (Texas Adventure Riders Association) Chapter sponsors a monthly dual sport adventure ride the first Saturday of every month. All riders are invited to attend.

We meet at 8:30 am at the Texaco gas station/convenience store, 18901 Hamilton Pool Road, Dripping Springs, 78620 (intersection of Hwy 12 and Hamilton Pool Rd/3238). Stands up at 9 am.

There is no designated ride leader for the monthly ride (i.e. no one is in charge). Riders self-organize into small groups and then enjoy a fun day in the Texas hill country.

What if the weather is bad? The ride still occurs. There is a chance you may be the only rider to show up, but the ride is never cancelled. This way, no matter what the weather forecast, those riders who want to ride always have a scheduled ride.

What if there is an event (such as a rally) scheduled for that same weekend? The first Saturday ride is still on. This way those riders who aren’t attending the other ride/rally have a scheduled Saturday ride they can attend.

What if someone else is organizing a day ride on Sunday? All other rides are in addition to the Saturday ride, not a replacement for the Saturday ride.

The first Saturday ride is never cancelled. It is always on.

We meet every month at the Buffalo Wild Wings restaurant, 901 Little Texas Lane, Austin 78745 from 6 – 8 pm. If the weather is nice and a table is available we will be in the outdoor patio. Otherwise we will be sitting inside. Let’s get together and tell riding stories and enjoy a meal. We are a friendly bunch and all are welcome to join us.

All riders are welcome and encouraged to join us.

Ride your motorcycle if you want. Drive your car if that works better for you.

The main point is to get together, make new friends, visit with old friends, and talk about dual sport adventure motorcycling.

There is no cost to attend other than what you spend on eating and drinking.

Feel free to come early or stay late.
