Title: RBENT Gathering II -- Sat Oct 29th, 9AM Post by FlyingLaZBoy on Oct 14th, 2011, 8:29pm 2nd verse, same as the first, a little bit louder and........ maybe a lot more riders! Let's do the same thing we're trying on the 15th, on the 29th... 7:45AM -- roll out from Preston/Forest (regular GDB Airport Ride start location), to ride 13 miles at ~16-18mph out to Bicycles Plus, arriving 8:30ish 8:30 - 9:00AM -- Gathering at Bicycles Plus, northwest corner of MacArthur and Belt Line 9:00AM -- rollout - group rides together at casual pace, ~6 miles across Belt Line to Freeport south to Airport Shell station at 114. 9:30AM -- Groups split into "turtle", "Counterclockwise", and "Clockwise" riding groups. "Turtle" group finishes ride back at Bicycles Plus. "CW" and "CCW" groups meet again at 114 Shell Station, then ride together back to Bicycles Plus 11:30AMish -- probable return time to Bicycles Plus for all groups. Lunch location is a group decision. Riders who started at Preston/Forest may not stay for lunch -- if you're in this group, you probably know the way back! |

Title: Re: RBENT Gathering II -- Sat Oct 29th, 9AM Post by AustinSkater on Oct 25th, 2011, 9:36am Is there a GPS link for the longest loop? Shellene and I plan to ride that one, but we are not sure if we'll be able to ride the required pace (and do not want to hold up the group if we can't) |

Title: Re: RBENT Gathering II -- Sat Oct 29th, 9AM Post by aikigreg on Oct 25th, 2011, 6:56pm Alexis and I are planning to ride the same loop as last time, less the airport loop. |

Title: Re: RBENT Gathering II -- Sat Oct 29th, 9AM Post by Bud_Bent on Oct 25th, 2011, 8:58pm I'm planning on riding over from Village Creek Park to join everyone for an airport loop. |

Title: Re: RBENT Gathering II -- Sat Oct 29th, 9AM Post by Monkeywrangler22 on Oct 26th, 2011, 8:19am So how many folks were on the Turtle route last time? Also what are the posted speeds for all 3 groups? And mileages from Bike Plus and back? |

Information for routes and mileage is posted in the previous ride link: http://rbentonline.org/YaBB.pl?num=1317659423 I'm thinking about doing the Turtle Route---may be on a trike. That will be a Turtle pace. |

Title: Re: RBENT Gathering II -- Sat Oct 29th, 9AM Post by aikigreg on Oct 26th, 2011, 12:12pm Change of plans - working this Saturday instead. |

Title: Re: RBENT Gathering II -- Sat Oct 29th, 9AM Post by Monkeywrangler22 on Oct 26th, 2011, 12:41pm I guess if I go I will do the turtle route this time. If I find I am fast enough for an airport loop at 14-16mph, then next time I guess I will try the 27mi route. This all assumes that I can get everything ready and get there to BP by the appointed start time... |

Title: Re: RBENT Gathering II -- Sat Oct 29th, 9AM Post by shellbear on Oct 26th, 2011, 12:51pm I just checked the weather for Saturday. It's going to be a chilly one! If it's not at least 45 degrees by 9am I may chicken out and leave you to your frozen toes. LOL |

Title: Re: RBENT Gathering II -- Sat Oct 29th, 9AM Post by artcat on Oct 26th, 2011, 1:47pm I will be there and meet at Preston Forest like last time. |

Title: Re: RBENT Gathering II -- Sat Oct 29th, 9AM Post by FlyingLaZBoy on Oct 27th, 2011, 7:47am Yep, gonna be chilly, but that's why we wear layers!!! Should be sunny, with light wind... Note that the group leaving from Preston/Forest at 7:45 will probably not get to Bicycles Plus until about 8:45... Paul |

Title: Re: RBENT Gathering II -- Sat Oct 29th, 9AM Post by diannalightning on Oct 27th, 2011, 2:30pm Sorry, I won't be able to make this ride. Have to go to Abilene. |

Title: Re: RBENT Gathering II -- Sat Oct 29th, 9AM Post by shellbear on Oct 28th, 2011, 10:37pm Argh, I am going to have to bail. Too cold and too much that needs to be done before the evening (namely a scrapbook and finishing my Halloween costume!) I will catch you guys next time... |

Title: Re: RBENT Gathering II -- Sat Oct 29th, 9AM Post by Monkeywrangler22 on Oct 28th, 2011, 11:16pm Alarm is set, so I plan to be there! I just hope I am not the only turtle! |
