Default I needed fresh seafood!

So, I decided Friday evening around 10pm that I wanted fresh seafood this weekend. So what else do you do when you need fresh seafood and you're landlocked? Ride to the coast of course! The destination was lunch with a friend at Outriggers on Galveston Bay. Yes kids, south of Houston. LOL

After I left Houston, I headed west to Austin and had dinner with friends, stayed the night, and headed back home this morning. Great weekend! And now for the pics!

More pics than talking, I know how y'all are!

Here's the begin mileage: 27,397



My ugly mug on the Bay. The blackened catfish was excellent!



The local traffic. My best friend likes the Jolly Roger, so I snapped this one for him.



No trip is complete without a little bit of sightseeing!



The Saturn V. Holycrap this thing is huge!!



Me standing at the back (bottom?). Those engines are monsters!



Not only did this guy buy one of the ugliest bikes known to man, he spent the money to make it a trike.



Since I know chi is missing some Oklahoma scenery, and to prove to the rest of you that our state is not *totally* flat, proof...



Is it a bug or a spider? I'm not sure.



End mileage: 28,574.



1,177 miles knocked out. Great ride, great company, what more could you ask for? THIS is why we ride motorcycles.

You're doing this massive trip to Alaska and you don't do a test run on the KLR? Tsk tsk tsk.

Nice pics though.

The KLR will get plenty of test runs/miles between now and departure.

Very nice. Wish lately with the shitty Michigan weather that I never left Texas.
