With a great RBENT turnout for the Lancaster ride yesterday, let's start planning a larger RBENT gathering for upcoming pay rides.  
 
Here is our tentative plans.  What is yours
Ray and I are doing the (hilly) Granbury ride this Saturday 4-19
May 17- Cross Timbers (Flower Mound)  - riders get to experience riding inside of TMS
May 24 - Burleson
June 7 - Mesquite
June 14 - Collin Classic
June 21 - Italy (yeah - everybody's gotta do this one)
July 19 - Paris (probably the flattest pay ride)
July 26 - Gotneck (Ray has the course record for the 10 mile race - 22 min.)
  

For the love of god, don't do the mesquite ride.  They should call it the Mesquite Pothole ride instead.  Horrible pavement, gravel everywhere, etc.  It's a risky rider and I think most of us who did it last year aren't going back.
 
Cross timber is fun, and I expect to do it again.
 
For me, here is my tentative schedule:
April 26 - Muenster or the Cleburne 200k
May 3 - Calvin's Challenge (race)
May 10 - Horse Country Time Trial
May 17 - Cross Timbers (GREAT RIDE)
May 24 - Mineral Wells - probably 300k
May 31 - Rbent 40 miler

Glad to hear that SlowRider is ready for another ride.  I'm up for Muenster, Collin Classic, the 5/31 R-Bent 40 miler.  Carolyn and I are riding Free Wheel this year ( across Oklahoma) the week of June 8 - 14 so wish us luck.  It's hilly.  Don't forget.
 
August 23--Hotter N' Hell ( might as well get it on the calendar)

Century.  I did it last year and it was pretty easy.

Here's what I'm planning on doing (weather permitting). Can't vouch for which ones the wife can do..
 
26 Apr Muenster
31 May Magnolia
7 Jun Mesquite (although now having 2nd thoughts w the bad roads)
21 Jun Italy
28 Jun Stephenville (maybe)
12 Jul Peach Pedal
19 Jul Paris
26 Jul Goatneck (maybe)
23 Aug HHH
26 Sep Autumn in Bonham
 
I think that's enough.
 
irdoguy: I don't have elevation data but Paris reminds me of HHH except w trees and plants and grass, etc. Now, if you've never done HHH, this doesn't help.
