Title: one more 200k before year's end?
Post by aikigreg on Dec 26^th, 2008, 5:37pm

Being a teacher and all, I'm hoping to make use of this next week off and maybe squeeze in one more 200k before I give up on mileage for 2008. I'm already 1500 ahead ofwjere I was last year and thought I'd be this year, that I just feel like riding. Don't have a specirfic jaunt planned, but is anyone interested? I'm thinking Tuesday the 30th.

JPL2CLE hm.. that sounds so familiar ::)

I wonder if I did ever get credit for that. (I did.. I'm still on probation for perms though)

Paul ,the GP2CLE is a Bill Fox route. All of his routes are closed for the remainder of the year. Besides,there are sections of this route that a H-O-R-R-I-B-L-E(due to the Barnett Shale drilling). Bud & Greg could elaborate more on how bad this route is.

We rode this route in April, I quickly scratched this route off of my "to do" list. Mark ,you did receive credit for this 200K.

Clay Wilson emailed me and said he was going to do the honey-do, and since it came recommended, and I missed it last time, I've signed myself and Paul up. Anyone else?

Greg ,this is a good route. Nelson,Steve,& I rode this route earlier this month. Be careful of of the section of "boulder seal" from Celeste to Wolfe City(13 miles) & on the return of this section(Wolfe City to Celeste). As you get closer to Wolfe City from Celeste(about 3 miles) & as you leave Wolfe City,the chip seal is loose.

Be safe & enjoy the ride.

Sounds good to me, I haven't done it since last year. When's the rollout?
