Title: DFW airport is rideable again
Post by FlyingLaZBoy on Aug 15^th, 2009, 3:53pm

They've finally finished most of the construction at the north end of the airport, and it's got a very nice wide shoulder, to boot. Except for the last half mile going back to the Shell station, which they're still working on.

SO, we can get back to planning some future date for RBENT airport looping!!!!!

I loop the airport four to five days a week [smiley=thumbsup.gif]

Been trying out the new pavement myself which isn't open to cars yet but is easily rideable, just have to watch out for loose dirt and gravel in a few spots. They have a bit of drainage work to finish up which I hope they take thier time on. It sure is piecefull on that stretch not having to dodge parking shuttle busses and freight trucks anymore.

I think a good activity to combine with the Airport Ride is to also meet the troops:
Dallas USO (http://affiliates.uso.org/dfw/default.cfm?contentid=712)
We could meet the troops first than ride afterward.
