Glad to see you on this forum Cheri.  You've pulled me many times on my traditional bike, now I can draft you on my recumbent.  It's nice to hear positive comments about bent riders, because normally bents are shunned.  We make up for it in personality  Grin
 
It's been with great joy to introduce recumbents to LSR.  Over the past three years we've grown to ~10 active bent riders in LSR.
 
We hope you can join us Saturday. Spanish Fort is... well... you be the judge....

Here's the overall map, with the loop part going counterclockwise
 

 
 
 
However, we're looking at some significant cold at the start, and headwind in the 2nd half, according to NOAA...   arrrrrghhhhhh   I don't suppose we can start at Spanish Fort, and have a tailwind in the 2nd half instead, O Mighty Ray, Owner Of The Route????   Roll Eyes Cheesy

Bring your cameras, there are places you'll definately want to stop and take pictures.  For example, about 1 mile before St. Jo is an eceltic ranch similar to the ranch outside of Amarillo with the cadillac's in the ground.   This ranch not only has VW Bettles positioned like the cadillar ranch, they also have some other interesting art, all close to the road.
