Rockwall to Lavon 30-miler, Sat. 11/8 or Sun 11/9
Oct 17^th, 2014, 10:19am

Assuming the weather cooperates, I'll lead a group starting in Rockwall heading up north to Lavon, on Saturday Nov 8th, for about 30 miles round trip. If weather DOESN'T cooperate, we'll try it that next morning, on Sunday!

Rollout from the parking lot beside Luigi's Italian Cafe (on 205, just north of 30) at 8:30AM sharp -- we'll ride the full length of John King, up 205 for a bit, then take the back roads up to Lavon... take a break, then back. Lunch afterwards, at either Luigi's or Joe Willy's -- group decision!

Probably rolling speed ~15 mph, no drop, finishing ride at 11:30ish.

That thought scares me. Out of town that weekend, otherwise I'd be tempted to dust of the 'bents for Shellene and I.
