San Antonio Modern Muscle Hill Country Cruise - 11/6/2011

To begin with weather sucked it rain on us. Second got stuck in construction on I 10 while heading to kerrville. Third some crazy lady cut me and other fellow f body drivers while cruising on I 10. Crazy biotch! Overall very poorly organized cruise! Kept getting left behind at stops. No communication with others who participated on the cruise there was no communication at all on when to leave as a group for those who attended the cruise. And overall a lot of wreckless driving done by some not all. Almost witness a head on collision by one driver that attended the cruise.
And reckless driving will happen. We are out on the open road and having fun, people are gonna speed and haul ***. That was also the point of us hitting the twisties up (which Park Road 37 was ******* awesome).
People did manage to get left behind due to traffic or them staying behind at the next stop. That's why I stopped twice to wait for the people that did (Once leaving Kerville and at Bandera). Also the one time on I10 where we pulled to the emergency lane. And also slowed down to 50-60mph at some points to for people to catch up. But when you have 20+ cars and do not have everyone's number, thats difficult to try to keep EVERY single person together with the group.
As for the weather and construction. I couldn't control that. I asked everyone at Wingstop before we left if we should continue the cruise and they all agreed to. We actually did not hit any rain til about 30 min before the cruise ended. A little bit of drizzle on the way over there but that was nothing.
I also can't control the crazy bitch drivers that passed us up and flicked us off or the one that cut you off. We are on a major interstate taking up 2 lanes of traffic. They will get bitchy lol.
As for pics, I got a few and some of those flyby videos everyone did!

Hey bro I understand you had your family in your car and respect that. But I did try to go up to everyone and when it was time to leave at each stop we made. Sorry if I didn't come up to you personally and tell you it was time to go. There were a lot of new faces and I didn't get to meet everyone and catch everyone's name.

Gonna have to agree with Chon-ster on this one. We had a crap load more cars this time as compaired to our 1st cruise.

You can't make everyone happy. Like Steve said... we can't control traffic and weather. No one forced anyone to go fast. You could have just pulled over and went home. If you had to bring the wife/gf and kid you should have stayed on the back if you weren't comfortable with your driving or anyone else.

I need to get my car going soon, It loves the twisties, after most car meets I used to cruise from PR27 through 1283, thru Mico, on to 2976, then back to 471, and go WOT on 1957 all the way home, but then stupid land development made things crowded.
and it is all my fault for delivering material to them LOL

I thought the cruise was badass. The twisties were a good time even though my gf was pretty freaked out so i had to go easier than I would have liked. I'm looking forward to the next one

yea i agree with no one force me to go but this is a open forum anyone can attend the cruise. Only 2 people stayed at rudy bbq everyone that met there went on the cruise. Yes i know yall cant and no cant control weather and traffic conditions. I understand all that. But at the stops everyone got off the cars and had to wait in line to use the restrooms due to the capacity of how many people went and there being only one restroom for both men and women made it a bit longer wait at stops. i know and i understand mostly everyone had to go to the restroom. I had to wait for my wife, sister, and my friends with their family at the place cause they were still in line waiting to use the restroom while everyone drove off. Some of your friends or buddies yall knew were also left behind at times at the stops.They had to run out to their cars and hauled *** to catch up with you guys. Hey thats cool if you kept stopping by for us to catch up i appreciate it. Thanks! But as i recall it was a hill country cruise right? Not a hill country cannon ball run? Or was it? I dont know. I know most people and understand most people will want to speed up and want to have fun i know cause i one of those people as well. But wreckless driving on the twisties and almost having a head on collision with another car on the opposite side of the road?????? Really?? That would of been a nasty wreck for sure. I know for a fact there is always a time and a place to have fun. Wreckless driving on the twisties and almost running a car off the road which could of injure lives or killed people is not one of those times to do it at all. I guess it just cause Im a family man and have a family to tend too I think on my actions twice before I do act.
All in all the cruise was fun i dont deny it but there was a much need improvement on communication and orginization.

Well mostly everybody knew what was coming up when we hit the twisties, if you wanted to go slow, you stay in the back especially if you have your family. If you want to have fun stay in front. Maybe a member was driving wreckless maybe he wasn't and just lost control of the car, not everybody is a capable driver in roads like that and maybe should try slowing down and stay in the back. There is a difference between wreckless and spirited driving and I'm sure it was spirited as everybody is aware of what can happen if you are careless in these roads.

Even if every one had each others numbers i don't think it would have helped after you get out in the county. Need walkie talkies. What I don't like is how punctual everyone was. I got to wingstop @1250 expecting everyone to be there and nope!
I took some simple pics from rudys had a good one with chon but gay Eric sooner in on his ***, ill still post it for u perv's.
Maybe next time we should have a meeting before we leave rudys and discuss on who will be up front/back and maybe divide into groups to keep count of each member of the group. Oh and walkie talkies.
What time did yall get back? I split after rudys.
