DFW Airport loopy-ness, 12/6
Dec 5^th, 2008, 11:00am

I'm planning to do 3 or 4 loops around the DFW Airport route on Saturday, starting around 9:30ish from the Shell station, finishing around 12:30... The early morning chill should be wearing off, and the sun should be out nicely.

This is as opposed to the normal 52 mile GDB Airport ride from Preston/Forest, which will have various people coming out for the normal ride -- I just decided to bypass all the stoplights and such back and forth. I'll probably be trying to hold ~18-20mph overall, if anyone is interested in tagging along, and alternating my direction lap to lap... If you're out there otherwise, wave!!!

I'll be there although I'll likely meet you somewhere around the loop, I usually take a trip over Grapevine Dam and downtown first

BTW In case anyone is interested they added an observation area at the intersection of North Airport road and Minter's Chapel road
