Clown Christmas Party:
Vicky and I would like to host the Clown Christmas Party on Thursday Dec 17.  Our address is 2830 Silverspring Rd, Carrollton TX.  We are near the south-west corner of Marsh and Keller Springs.  From Marsh, turn west on Carriage Lane (there is a traffic light), then take the first road to the North (Wippoorwill).  Go to the end of the road and follow it as it turns west.  Our house is the 5th one on the south side.  It is the one with massive Christmas lights.
We will plan on eating at about 6, but feel free to come over earlier, rush hour traffic can get bad going north on Marsh.
We will provide Swedish meatballs, beanie-weinies and a fruit tea punch.  Please bring a dish or desert and drinks, if you prefer something else.
Please bring a gift valued at about $15.  For the usual Chinese gift exchange.
Rbent friends are also invited.  Please post on this thread or e-mail me if you can attend.

Are the clowns finished for the year? I'm coming to Dallas and would enjoy riding with some of you guys on Saturday or Sunday. What is scheduled???

Adults should have fun so kids will want to grow up!

For every mile of road there's two miles of ditch.

I'd rather be sorry for something I did than for something I didn't do.

We never 'finish'  but we only ride on Tuesday and Thursday
When it gets cold we change the breakfast time to 9:00.
Not many ride when it gets below 35 degree but some do.

No, we are not finished. We ride all year long, weather permitting, on Tuesdays and Thursdays. A few of us occasionally do the PBA/GDB Plano East Side ride on Saturdays: http://www.greaterdallasbicyclists.com/content.aspx?page_id=87&club_id=74733 3&item_id=491055. Others may ride elsewhere on weekends. I, personally, am not riding this weekend, because I will be with a visiting relative.
 
You might want to consider doing the Turkey Roll Bicycle Rally in Denton on Saturday: http://www.dentonbreakfastkiwanis.org/news.php?entryid=7. At least one of the Clowns has signed up for the ride.
 
Some Clowns and/or RBENT members have been known to do this ride on Sunday mornings: http://www.greaterdallasbicyclists.com/content.aspx?page_id=87&club_id=74733 3&item_id=490638

That Texas Motor Speedway sounds cool. I think I'll cruise over there Sunday. Maybe sometime around ninish or tenish.

I had a nice solitary ride out at the speedway. I took two bikes and one of them had the brake rubbing on the left side. It (and the wind) slowed my average speed to 15.4mph. So I got out my other bike and took off. Much better. Saw a time trialer on my last lap--aero helmet and all. As we passed I did a U-turn and smoked him quite easily. Of course, it might have been his first of 50 laps. On my way there I saw a road sign that said "SHOULDER WORK". If you'd come out jrob maybe they could have fixed yours! Ended up with 31 miles at 18.4mph. Really like that loop.
