I just wonder if it is close to Smithfield Road? It is right at Davis and Smithfield, right next to the Cotton Belt Trail, where they are clearing a lot with a sign that says coming soon and the rest of the sign is broken off. That is 1 mile from my house. I guess I will have to wait and see.

I don’t know for a fact but suspect it’s on Carlisle ct which is almost at the southern end of the trail. I know they had looked at space there once before and it’s still vacant and is literally 50’ or less off the trail. For those who attended the ride they hosted last year, this is the area I am thinking.

I understand Micah will be in NRH tonight for a Christmas light ride at 7pm starting at the Roots Coffee House, he may share the site with you if you can make it.

Thanks. I wish I could make the ride, but I have family coming.

So, I here it's a "done" deal - EasyStreet is coming - Smiley

I can hardly wait, some how (procrastination ) I miss supporting the effort. However, I will be riding their often and do my part being stuff for my trike - so wish that he was a GreenSpeed dealer I'd even get more parts from him. Keep me posted on the opening Smiley

do want to miss that

Reply #20 - Mar 29^th, 2018, 6:59pm I suppose it’s official, Easy Street had landed in Keller http://www.wemakecyclingeasy.com just a few miles from home. If your familiar with trails and live in the area it’s an easy place to get to, or you can just look up the North Richland Hills and Keller trail maps and see it.

Tarrant, or about 5 miles via John Barfield Trail. I think when John Barfield ends it is Fall Creek Trail and Little Bear Creek. I am a DIY person, but I will spend some money there. They go out of their way to support us, so I will support them.

Not sure where your coming from but there is great riding in the area, if your a road rider you will find plenty of activity in the Keller, NRH, Roanoke, trophy club, argyle areas as well as west into Saginaw, Haslet and azle. Several groups in the area who don’t look down on a bent rider if you are a group rider. If you are a trail rider there are plenty of those as well with access to most all of the surrounding areas. Each of the respective cities listed above have trail maps on the respective sites.

We've gotten permission to park at Brown Chiropractic which is on the trail so that we don't have to ride the road to get to the start of the trail in Grapevine. Can't wait.
