Greg & Kristi will have the statistics of attendance, etc., but those are only dry numbers.

Fantastic four days of ridin', wrenchin' and yakkin'.  What a great group of folks!

If you didn't come, you missed a great time, and a great group of folks.  Start planning NOW for next year.

I rode out this morning with Buddy, Brad, and Lowell.  We parted at Johnson City, and I "took the long way home" -- got here about 10:30.

I appreciate all the care, prayers, and well wishes after my mishap from my fellow MOOTsters.

The question has been answered.  Can Tindall outride his fuel tanks?

I want to tell you guys how great this last 4 days have been.  Getting to see all of you again, and getting to meet the first time attendees, sharing whoppers, I mean stories, and hanging out, it dont get no better than that.

You guys that missed this one start now planning for next year. 
Curtis -  there is only one witness, sorry Lowell
Greg - your like Mr. Magoo, "you dun it again"
Alan - fishing?
Jeff, Lawrence - bring on the mountains, they aint got nuttin on us.
Wrenchin crew - thanks for the help, and suggestions.  Chain made it all the way home with no more noise, fixin to order me a new one.
Queen - You "rule"
Lowell - thanks for leading the group
To all the others - thanks for the memories, will see you next year

What about that bat cave, Stone Henge, the 3's, the Son's of Texas,  oh did that come out of my mouth, SORRY, the scenary.  I feel like the opening song to Green Acres.

THE ANSWER TO FOLLOW:
Left at 6:15 this morning.  My first stop was at a Texaco at the intersection of 67 and cooper.  Thats right the same Texaco we met at to travel down.  281 miles with out a stop.  Pulled in at 10:45.  Got home at 12:45,  380 miles this trip. I made it all the way with only one stop.  Well i stopped and had a burgerafter gasing up.

1034.4 total miles from Wednesday to home today.

Made it home appx 4:30 pm.  Bourne was closed until noon so I detoured to Natural Bridge caverns to pick up souvenirs.

Dropped the bike at the gas station and broke the mirror on the left side.  scraped the gas tank and the turn signal.  No one saw (sorry Lowell) but three people helped get the bike up.  So did it really happen?

I-10 was hell!! 

It was great to see everyone - I think we need another day.

see you all soon.

Just got back to the thriving metropolis of Tecumseh OK!
Made it to my house in almost exactley 12 hours.  :shock:
The relay / fuse problem performed flawlwsley all the way home and the shoulder held up fine too.
Thanks to everyone that assisted with the failure, monitored my progress afterwards.
Special thanks to Gregs (O and C) , and Allan for leading me back after the Bat show, and my flight mates, Brad, Lawrence, and Lowell for a fun ride back to I-35.  We dropped Lawrence first Johnson City. The three-ship continued to Ft. Worth where Lowell broke formation to head for a cold one and some rest.  Brad remained lead until I too left the formation at Ardmore OK for the nice country drive to Tecumseh.  It was finally cool, the traffic was nonexistent and the contrast to the slab ride of I-35 was stunning.
All in all, an excellent ending to an excellent MOOT MAG!  :D
Let's do it again!!!  8)

Trapper, Joseph and I made it to Belton where it was a "hunert" degrees in the shade at lunchtime! 
It was wonderful to see so many familiar faces as well as new ones.  We have enjoyed each MOOT MaG we've attended and look forward to the next gathering.

Who opened the oven door!  As Trent(Buddy) stated our ride toward OK with Lawrence and Lowell was good, but with the traffic and heat on I35, it was more of a challenge until past Denton, where cloud cover cooled the air a little and the traffic thinned.  Arrived home ~7:30.  Great MM7!  Rode 725 miles in three days at MM7.  Great riding.
