Post by FlyingLaZBoy on Sep 11^th, 2017, 10:16am

I think I'm going to go over to Greenville this Saturday, for the Cotton Patch... $30 registration

http://www.cottonpatchchallenge.com/

8 a.m. start from the Hunt County Courthouse Square at 2507 Lee Street.

12, 21, 35, 46, 61 and 74 miles

61 and 74 miles routes cross Lake Tawakoni on the smooth new 4 lane concrete “Two Mile Bridge” with picturesque vistas

Special activities taking place during the ride:

Ain't Just Pie will open for breakfast at 6 AM just two blocks from registration at 2205 Lee St.
Park Street Community will cheer on riders as they leave Greenville at beginning of the event.
Corner marshals with bright orange flags will man the major turns on the routes.
Loud music, cookies and cheering volunteers will be on hand at each rest stop.
Paris Jr. College students will give bottled water to riders on “Bowman’s Mountain” (large hill on Hwy 69 about 2 miles from Lone Oak) from 8:20 a.m. to 9:30 a.m. across from the TxDOT wayside rest area.
Landon Winery will be serving complimentary wine samples at the Cullen Ranch rest stop (FM 2101 @ FM 2947) from 10 am to 1 p.m.
The YMCA's American Girls Club will cheer on participants as they finish the ride.
PJC students will serve free fruit smoothies on the SE corner of the courthouse at the courses end

I enjoyed items from both ice cream and brownie vendors after the ride last year. No waiting for the ice cream to be made involved. :)

I hope to manage 46m, though after a 3 weeks of barely hitting 30's I may be expecting a bit much.
