Itinerary for Thursday, November 1, 2001

The caravan stopped in Wichita Falls before dropping down into the Dallas area.  We visited various fire stations and were provided a law enforcement escort as the caravan on through to Dallas. Are we approaching a record yet for the longest continuous police escort?

Special thanks to the Wichita Falls Fire Department.  We certainly enjoyed meeting all of you and will pass on your thoughts to the families of the fallen firefighters.

Also, a special thanks to Harley Davidson of Dallas for hosting the Dallas stops and for giving the bike a tune-up and oil change.  Our best to the Panther Creek HOG members.  You guys are great!
