For anyone interested in spending most of their Sunday on the bike, please consider joining me on the GDB Sunday Roll (before the Sadowski ride), that departs from Preston/Royal at 9AM sharp. We do a winding 30-35 miles, in no-drop form, with cruising speeds of 15-18, exploring Dallas. We take one break after about 12-15 miles, and typically arrive back by noon. Occasional hill climbing typically occurs, with regrouping. I have no idea where we're going, it could be east/west/south/north, Downtown Dallas, Las Colinas, Carrollton, Garland... that's the fun of this particular ride!

http://www.greaterdallasbicyclists.com/gallery/index.php My plan is to do this ride, grab lunch somewhere in the area (probably with Terrie at a pizza place near Snider Plaza), then head over to WRL for the RBENT ride's 2PM departure.
Mark Allen and Lynn Morrow are typically the only other two 'benters along with me on the Roll, so more are always welcome. However, please consider your overall fitness level regarding your ability to do 30+ in the morning, and another 30+ in the afternoon...
[I may be a REAL glutton for punishment....errrr.. pleasure..., and may actually ride from home to do these rides, which would give me ~200 miles for the weekend... depends upon how Cross Timbers goes!!!]
