A message to the Tacos - 2012 MS150

This was the final message to the "Tour de Taco", before we embark on that grand adventure, the Houston-Austin 2012 MS150

Quote:
My fellow tacos,

The week, or really weekend, of the MS150 is upon us. The main thing is to think positively.

Yes there will be wind, but there will also be beer.

We may not have tacos, but we will have Fajitas.

You may be cramping (well, _I_ will be cramping!), but you can live in the solace that you are not suffering alone.

You may have to wait in line for the showers, but you will have beer the envy of all around you

There may be snoring, but YOU remembered your earplugs...

We shall go on to the end. We shall ride in Bellville, we shall ride on through La Grange and Bastrop and Austin. We shall ride with growing confidence and growing strength with our butts in the air, we shall defend the beer, whatever the cost may be. We shall ride against the wind, we shall ride Martin Luther King Blvd, we shall ride in the storms and in the rain, we shall ride in the hills; we shall never surrender!

And all will still say, _This_ was their finest hour
Taco Grande

I like it!!! Can I re-quote to our team (without the taco references of course?)

I've been putting in the miles but not like last year. I see butt pain and calf cramps in my future!

I see Butt butter in your future and hydrating with beer mixed with "lite salt".

Give him one night with you at the Saucer and he will be well informed.

Why do I keep getting the feeling that I won't survive Houston?

Looks like the bad weather is going to move through. Hopefully the wind moves with it!
