Well,since I'm a candy-a$$ when it comes to the cold,anything below freezing SUCKS to me,but let's see what next week's weather brings us. I know Paul is riding with us next Sunday. C'mon Foo,catroad,Nelson,Ray...

P.S. Ken,anything below 50 is cold to me. I love me some heat.

Here's the link to the Celina route. The good thing about the Celina area is that we can add mileage to the route easily(and then there's Lucy's cafe on the square afterward).

Sadly, I must bow out of this, despite it being partially my idea... Terrie needs my assistance with some things that morning, so I'm not going to be able to go out riding until after noonish...
:( Have fun up there! Would it be possible to change to a 1PM start, riding through the afternoon?

Paul,a later start time would not work for Peggy or I. Sorry. We'll have to ride together another time.

No problem, I'll do some DF buzzing over at White Rock, instead, or hit the Mesquite course... Enjoy!

Sorry you missed the ride. It was a BLAST! I missed being on the bike. It felt good to be back. We'll have to try this route another time.

Yes, this part of highway 114 is legal to ride. It's only about a 2 mile stretch, is on the west side of Roanoke, and has a very wide shoulder. I've ridden it many, many times over the years.

I'll submit the route for RUSA (Randonneur USA) approval when I return from travel. I'm off again to The Great White North trying to teach em' thar'e yank's a thang or three about Engineerin'.
