Best of the Northwest Ride, Sat June 30th, 7:30
Jun 4^th, 2007, 12:13pm

The GDB has its quarterly Best of the Northwest ride scheduled for the 5th Saturday in June, 7:30 AM departure starting at Big Buck's steakhouse at 121 and Bass Pro Drive, north of DFW airport. This ride goes up through the Argyle area for about 50+ miles, with some challenging climbs, but is a great rural route.

I'm planning on making this one -- Charlie, Stradas, or any of you other northerners, care to join in? Bud, Greg, DJ, it's just north of the airport, so not TOO far... It'll be about a 16 mph average, with 17-20 on the flats, similar to or a bit slower than what we did on the Rodeo Rally last weekend, but is essentially no drop.

For more information, contact me, or call Joe Rohner 214-987-1822

I'm anticipating riding it, but the way life's been interfering with cycling plans lately....

Hell, we could even go 'round the airport!!! Kinda depends on the rain, obviously... I'm planning to ride it, weather permitting... PB
