Where to find riding friends

Hi, I’ve had my motorcycle for over a year but I haven’t met many people that ride in my day-to-day though I see plenty of riders on the streets of Austin, which gives me some hope. A kind biker even helped give me a push for a bump start at a gas station a couple weeks ago lol. I’m looking for sensible people to enjoy the hobby with, since I have a itty bitty bike (cb300r)

Getting charged tolls for someone elses motocycle

HCTRA has charged me multiple times for tolls on someone else's bike. Always for State Highway 130 Cameron Plaza North. Had to call HCTRA multiple times to get credit for these bogus charges. Apparently, someone with almost the same plate number has moved their plate to make it hard for the toll cameras to see it. Then the software fails to correctly identify the actual plate number.

I'm stuck having to monitor my account for these fraudulent charges. I'm calling every agency I can think of to track down this guy but no success yet. All over a .95 cent toll he is apparently too poor to cover. Or he's taking a stand against "the man".

Keep an eye on your tolls if you have an account with HCTRA.
