Been working on the Formula - going through all the little things that needed attention and I am happy to report that she is ready for the trip. Just got to get some new shoes next weekend. Sent my registration in Thursday and got the time scheduled off. Can't wait to meet up with some Fiero folks. We have a small loose knit group out here in Far West TX. We try to get together once in awhile for a run and a meal but we never get more than 4 or 5 together at one time. Here we come SA!

Looks like I am out this year. Unless a few things shake in the right direction.
Pat, If the Formula isn't up to it, the Short Bus would be happy to fill in for it.
Keys are in it.......

Hey everyone,

It will not be long now! Make you plans to get here. It is going to be a great time.


Mike Parker

Are we going to the auto show friday night at Topperwhine & I35 At BIFFS.It would be good if 20 or so Fieros showed up their Friday Night.

I scoped out a cruise route this week. We'll be taking some back roads out to Bandera with a little detour on some twisties to Lake Medina. Also found a good place to eat in Bandera - Brick's Riverfront Cafe

I am glad to see that this event is still going on. The Round Up is the most fun I have ever had with any of my Fiero's.

You all have a good time, and start a NEW thread when the event is over for pictures!

------------------

Wow,

Great to hear from you Joel, you will always be a part of AAFO. Thanks for the good wishes, maybe drop in on us sometime. I take it the folks are still here in Boerne.

Robert, it would be great, I was concerned how tired the out of towners would be after their drive. You know the Taco Cabana is crawling distance from the Red Roof Inn! The food is great at Biffs Burger, but it fills up fast, both the food and the parking lot. I am open for it and will provide location information if people want to meet there instead or as well as the Taco Cabana. Just let me know. I have to be at the Taco Cabano, first RED RITAS are on me.

Mike Parker

I'm planning to go by Biff's and then leave about 8pm for Taco Cabana

What time does the Taco C' close? I might be rolling in a bit late. Maybe around 10.

LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

With that, I am going to guess that it closes when we say it closes.

BUMP TTT
My schedule is open but I have to play it day by day. Job hunting. Should one come up, I suppose that I should take it, .

Needing to buy a Fiero ?

Nah, j/k, I am gonna sell my 87GT if it will get me $2500.00. It should. All original, everything works including cruise and the 134A A/C system. 130,000 miles, automatic. Freshly painted Oct 08.

Great we will be in my 86 Coupe this year.

I'm out. Move in date on our house has been pushed back to last week in April.

Dang. I have been looking forward to meeting you and Jane again.
You are the customer. You are the boss. I know you have been working on getting it done and moved in but, what is three more days ?
Just pushing buttons Don, I understand. Congrats.

Well I can't make this. I'm in school wednesday and thursday! What a letdown.

uhm... the Round Up is a weekend event... some even come out for just Saturday...

Well I guess the online calendar I looked at was wrong then. Nevermind!

Do the T shirts have pockets ?
bump
I could get pocket shirts for an extra dollar at Ruckus 07. On a per request basis. Different colors available cheap also. Per request basis.
Meeting tomorrow, correct ? Are you going fieroseblack ?

quote Originally posted by Bradley Jay: Well I guess the online calendar I looked at was wrong then. Nevermind!

March 25th and 26th are on a Wednesday and Thursday respectively. April is a different story. If only we had adopted a 28 day month calendar we wouldn't have this problem...but then every month would have a Friday the 13th

quote Originally posted by cliffw: Do the T shirts have pockets ? bump I could get pocket shirts for an extra dollar at Ruckus 07. On a per request basis. Different colors available cheap also. Per request basis.

yep, the Kerville Ruckus shirts were the cat's meow. Nice quality, and my colors haven't faded yet...
(and I do use the pocket! )

------------------

<---- did you buy Cliff a beer?

Thanks Blake. Those actually were not the colors I was speaking of. I was speaking of the actual shirt color. Background color.
FYI !
My shirt vendor quoted me a price for the basic, buying the shirts from them. Some wanted a different background color. Easy. I went to Wal-Mart and filled the order for all the different colors. One stop. Then, I dropped them off at the print shop. Presto, done. A little extra effort on my part but, I do consider the T shirts to be the event trophy. No matter who wins first place in show, etc. Actually, while I was at Wall World, I picked up a children's blouse for CenTexIndy's daughter and had the same logo printed on it. No extra charge. So, I took an aged Levi jacket that I had, and had the logo screen shot (?) on it too. No extra charge.
I did pay extra for the pocket on the print shop bulk order. Well worth a dollar ! Bulk background colors, now that would be cost prohibitive.
Thinking about it, I might have charged extra for me to go get the different color background shirts. No matter, I did spend more than I recovered. Which was my pleasure. I did not expect to host a party and not spend a little.

So we had our last monthly meeting before the show on Sunday, and we have some facts to pass on to you all. A location has been finalized and it is.............. Going to be at the Pep Boys at loop 410 and Marbach, just on the other side of the highway from where we usually meet on Sunday morning. Rob never got a response back from the Pontiac dealer. They surely have a lot going on. But from what I have heard Pep Boys is very excited about having us.
Rob did say at the meeting that he only has about 8 registrations, so with that said if you have not mailed your registration is, please do so ASAP!!! We need the numbers to properly order the correct number and size of the t-shirts and also so we know how many plaques to have on the ready.
I look forward to seeing you all soon, if anyone has questions please feel free to ask

Justin

I think you mean Saturday morning.

No I mean Sunday morning, we usually meet at the Taco Cabana on Sunday morning for a farewell, the Pep Boys is just on the other side of 410

You mean right across the street from where the Mall used to be where the show was held for several years?

Yes

Hi,

Sorry, we have been out of town, death in family. I was actualy up in Mesquite outside Dallas and in East Texas. We were in Emory, a little town outside Wills Point, close to Canton. T-Shirts are Robert's "thing" and he allways does a great job. Well I like the pockets, but sometimes the cost is a consideration. I liked your leather hat as well Cliff!

I am trying to catch up with Robert as I was unable to attend the AAFO meeting Sunday. Will post as soon as caught up on information. Come on Don, closing takes a half day, lets make it happen...Captain! Hope everyone gets to comeand help make this a great ROUND-UP XII.

Mike Parker

So i was wanting to get a tally going of how many people are coming to Round-up. Everyone can chime in with a headcount,so us here is SA can prepare.
I was thinking about bringing out my grill and cooking up some burgers and sausages for everyone. Is this something you all would be interested in??????
Let me know

Justin

2 people, 1 Fiero from far West Texas for sure on Saturday/Sunday.

Same here, 2 people 1 car. I could be interested in grilling out. We are going to try and be there Friday night for Taco C.
