Richardson Wildflower Ride
Apr 25th, 2011, 9:44pm
 
Vicky and I just registered for the Richardson Wildflower ride on May 21.  We will ride the 16 mile ride on our tandem trike.  It will be our first time on this ride.   Anyone else riding it?

Here for those interested is a link to the home page of the Richardson Wild Ride

For those going.  Where do you normally park??  And what time do you get there?
I didn't find anything about parking in the package.

Looks to be good riding weather Sat for all. Guess I'll religate myself to the Trinity Trails in the morning. Have fun.

Thanks.  We also enjoyed riding with you, but we were disappointed we didn't see other rbent riders.

John, Corsa Ken, and I saw you and Vicky at a distance, riding in a lower parking lot during staging. We were with the 64-mile group.
