If this worked out it shows it would put us in Marble Falls a little before 3 unless we hit traffic somewhere.

Is 1 the earliest you could do? Just curious, I'm not sure who all else can leave with us Friday since there hasn't been a lot of talk from anyone else



Oh man! I'm sorry to hear that! Hope everything is going well and you are able to get the okay from the doctor to go with us!

Thanks and i cam meet up anytime really, earlier is no problem

I'm good with that and if you guys want to meet there earlier I'm good too if it works better for you guys.

No not Micro, they are rather old. Maybe 4 years old or so. They worked great during the cruise we had through McKinney not to long ago. Set the channel and go.

I wanted to start this thread not to cloud the actual Twisted sisters meet threat.

@spyingwind @DFW-FRS @Dustin @Ramster @Shneegle @Texaz Boy @cjoe @kalamitykode @Husker BRZ

Radio Channel: TBD

The day is coming up fast. Is there anything set in stone? I'm off starting Thursday Aug 7th so I can meet up anytime without a problem. Also I'm gonna shop around for some radios as well

I'm good with the time we have. Just curious if it would be better for anyone else to leave earlier. But I guess since it just seems to be you, me, @Dustin, and @Shneegle then I think the time is good since it works for all of us.

I have a motorola radio that worked with the other radios on our last cruise. I just looked and I had mine set on 1 channel 10 (I think that's what it means lol) from the last run still.

@Shneegle @Husker BRZ @Texaz Boy @Dustin @MysteryMachine @spyingwind @Ramster @kalamitykode

Forgive me if I'm being naive, but why is this happening before the FT86Day?

If this for people who can't make it or trying to create an entirely different event?

It's to organize driving together to the event the following day.

Its for Dallas/Fort Worth folks that are driving down to SA on Friday together. Not a separate event or for those that cant make it to the Twisted Sisters run. Just a group drive to SA, with some fun stops along the way.
