Yeah, it might be wise to reserve something early. Greg said he found a motel room right before the ride last year, but you probably can't count on that.
 
I'm game for sharing something. If nothing else, we could get a several motel rooms next to each other.

The last time I did HHH was back in '05, which was the first time I finished. It was also the ride I went to on the bike, ride to the ride, ride the ride, and ride home. I admit I was taking the idea to an absurd extreme in this case. But it was the only one I finished to date.

This is perfect!  I declare this location as the official 2007 HH100 RBENT Barracks!    Anyone second this motion?

However, don't forget the unofficial RBENT Club Meeting here at Mile 98  

Theres a good chance I will make the HHH this year. Is the gym airconditioned?? Sounds like a good deal. With a cot or air mattress it won't be too bad..provided the snoring is kept to a minimum .

I have been tentatively given permission to attend by the family CFO, if I find some way to get there and back. Anyone up for the RRR option to HHH? I have 2 potential routes already mapped out, one a 3 day RRR and the other a 5 day. The 5 day option goes through Sherman and requires a stop at the Mission Oaks Nursing Home to visit with the residents there. I haven't scouted the ride from Sherman to WF on US 82 all the way, but I have seen the part from Nocona to Henrietta and it's not bad. You have to get on US 287 to get to WF
 
The 3 day option is just a ride out US 380 to US 287 and then into WF. I have only been able to scout this one as far as Mckinney to Denton on 380 recently, I have been the entire distance but not recently, last time was 2004. Time before that I went out with Bob, the guy that rides the Flying Bannana Rotator with the Coroplast fairing (sorry Bob, your last name has escaped my damaged brain) along the same route after Denton. Anyway the 3 day RRR is to leave Parker Road station way early in the AM on the Friday before, ride to McKinney up TX5, hang a left on US 380 to Decatur, and a right on US 287 and ride that puppy all the way to Wichita Falls. 287 will take us right downtown and almost right into the MPEC for our Packets. On the way back the plan is to stop in Henrietta for breakfast on either route.  
 
If anybody is interested post a reply or start another thread.

287 looked pretty good back in 2004, last time I saw it. The section from US82 in Henrietta to Wichita Falls was pretty good in 2005 except for the construction going on back then. From Decatur to WF has mostly rolling hills and wide shoulders. I have Google Earth now, the close up views look pretty good for most of the route. The only dicey part of the route is the transit of Denton. I haven't had any chance to scout this part either in a bike or by motor vehicle.
