Randos,

Here is your chance to relive all of those wonderful roads, hills, and headwind that makes the Willow Park series special to my heart. Plus it starts in my back yard.

So make your commitments now for the best way to burn off all those extra helpings at Thanksgiving by riding it off LSR style.

The ride will be a RUSA 400K Brevet. It will start at 7:00 am from the west side of the Brookshire's parking lot at I-20 and Ranch House Road in Willow Park on Saturday November 29th.

The brevet the week before is a 200K and 300K from the same spot, so I will only offer a 400K option. Call it the "Willow Park Double Header". Shellene is running the first game on the 22nd and I've got the second game on the 29th.

Please e-mail me back if you've got the right stuff and want to join the fun.

I will print up plenty of cards and cues in case we have any last minute riders.

Thanks,
Gary Gottlieb

I plan on attending. I would plan on all night/day lighting might be neccesary. Pretty Hill Route, but I enjoyed the previous time I did it. I also plan on taking it easy whatever the main LSR pack might be doing, as I haven't ridden this distance in well over a year.

Take Care,
Nelson.

OK ,I'm jumping with both feet. I reserved the right to "bail" if the weather is cold/rainy(I'm such a true Randonneurer-NOT). What am I'm doing(I wasn't supposed to type the last sentence...just my thoughts)?
