    Don't lose your job over a run, there will be many more!

    Cheeseburger loop is 2.5 hour drive to get to the start. Then it's about a 4 hour loop.

    Not really. Cedar Park, moving over to Leander. Getting closer and closer to @Texoma.

    Yankee's Tavern is legit AF. :drool: I've not done the loop but we've driven the twisty backrounds out there in the cars. The food and service was good.

    That river crossing has a rock bottom, is very hard packed and shallow. @TX_Lucian, @TX-TACO and myself have done that whole part of the loop no problem

    So long as you have momentum and a bit of ground clearance, it's fine. Don't don't do it in your Grandma's Cadillac and if you're ever out there on an Adventure Bike, don't do it alone.

    That said, we have varying amounts of rain and I would be cognizant of that at any crossing. That's why we skipped out on this:

    Howdy from the hospital.

    So...it looks like the cancer might have turned aggressive and spread. Waiting on some test results to come back but it's not favorable.

    Damn.

    Ah, crap. Sorry to hear it, Cap'n.

    I really wish you and you family the best through this. It's definitely not easy, but I'm glad that he's got you guys there for him.

    That's less than 2 miles from my house. I really need to catch that place open.

    So when is the cheeseburger loop planned for again? Next weekend? That's not too far from us so I might meet up. Especially if I get to do a river crossing. :)
