From the Editor: Sep Oct 2005

Welcome to the new, super-sized version of The Lone Star Biker. Although the smaller, digest-sized version of these travel guides proved very popular we had to accept the reality that it was more cost efficient to print in this larger format.

The larger size also gives us additional space to for some additional features. Our “On The Horizon” section provides information on motorcycle events and an activities calendar. In “The Goods” you can get information on products that you might be interested in. The “Picture This” feature is a series of photo contests. Submit your entry and you might win some nice prizes and even have your photo featured in a future edition.

This is a travel magazine for motorcycle enthusiasts and, as such, we will continuously try to tempt you to “Get on the road again”. Don’t just read about touring, don’t just dream about tour but actually get on the road again. Go out, take a trip and learn how much fun travel by motorcycle really is.

Also watch our website, www.LoneStarBiker.com, for information on upcoming trips. We frequently issue open invitations for our readers to join our staff on a trip. In this issue you will read a lot about just such a trip – The Great Ride Around Texas that over 20 total strangers got together and rode with us in May. It was a lot of fun for everyone and we all made some new friends as a result.

We hope that you will consider joining us for all, or part, or one of our future trips. All we ask is that our guests pay their own way, allow us to write about them in future articles and allow us use of any photos they take during the trip.

Thanks again for reading the Lone Star Biker

When are you going to get on the road again?
