The Bike Clubs Invade Venus - September 3rd
Aug 29th, 2007, 7:36pm
 
This ride is on Labor Day Monday, September 3rd, and is put on jointly by FWBA and GDB. It sounds like a few LSR riders will be there, too. There are 22, 40, 65, and 100 mile routes. Last year, there were 150 riders or so, and with that many riders, there are various speed groups on all the shorter routes. I really enjoyed the 65 mile route last year. I was the only recumbent. I'd love to see a few from the group there this year. It starts at the Venus town square at 8:00 am. There are maps and other information on FWBA's website.

I believe I'm doing that one as well, probably for the 65...
 
Wish these darned things didn't start so far from Rowlett!!!!

I'm going to try and drive a couple of those roads on Friday before I make up my mind.  I'd like to do the 100, but will likely end up with the 65.

Turns out that I'm going to do the Italy 200K tomorrow, so I probably won't be on the GDB/FWBA ride -- sorry!!  Enjoy!!!!!

Sorry I couldn't make it.  Had to work.  The feed industry is not very accommodating at times.  DJ
