As I understand it there are 2 alternatives for the DART light rail, one of which I don't know is going to work. If Tour Dallas made arraingements with DART then there will be special trains that will stop at the AA Center (Victory Station) and will have DART headsigns instead of the regular Red and Blue line destination signs. Otherwise then take either the Red or Blue line from near where you live and get off at the West End Station. Ride north on Lamar, hang a right at Hooters and just go right up to the parking lot and work your way around to the start area. This will also familiarize you with the finish of the ride.

I ride my bike to ride my bike, and sometimes it takes me where I need to go.

Y'all be sure to show 'em that Recumbent Grin... Smiley

Hey gang, it was a fun ride, glad to see some or y'all there. The weather was perfect for the ride and there was a very large turnout. Look forward to riding more in Dallas now that I have "discovered" the rail/bus system  Grin , heck it's a lot easier and cheeper than dirving (long as the weather is nice).

It was a great ride in perfect weather.  We rode with irodguy, who was on his cattrike.  We received a lot of comments on our bent trikes.  All were very positive.
 
Jman, sorry we missed you.  I don't check the postings every day, so I didn't know you were riding.

Richard, I was in disguise  Wink riding my green Dawes Lightning DF, Jonathan on his cool DeSantis and I bumped into each other during the 30 min "cone" delay and rode together on the 20 mile "walk-ride". I say walk because that is what we did till we got close to the bridge over the Trinity.
