FWBA Bicycles Inc ride
Sep 7th, 2008, 9:53pm
 
The next FWBA Bicycles Inc club ride will be on Saturday, September 13th. It starts from the Bicycles Inc in Arlington, at the corner of I-20 and Green Oaks, at 8:00 am. There are routes of 10, 36, 60, 75, 97, and 105 miles. This monthly ride has been the best attended of any FWBA rides this year and last. There is fruit at the Bicycles Inc store before the ride, and Bicycles Inc provides a SAG truck for the ride. You can get more info on the ride here.
 
Also, FWBA has now added routes of 130 and 160 miles to the ride. These routes start an hour earlier, at 7:00 am. Find more info here.
 
I'm planning on doing this ride. I haven't decided for sure which distance, but am leaning toward the 97 mile route.

Well, forecasts call for the rain and wind to show up around noon, so I am going to get up and check conditions, planning on doing no more than the 60 mile route, so I can be home before the big stuff hits.

FWBA decided they didn't want to take any chances, and canceled this ride this morning. I'm going to settle for a few miles starting from home.

I woke up at 7:30, and it was already raining some... and by 8:30 it was constant.  No miles for me today, although Terrie and I got a walk around the block in around 11 during a lull...   Smiley
