Burleson Honey Tour
May 17th, 2011, 10:08am
 
The Burleson Honey tour starts at 8:00 am on Saturday, May 28th. It starts at the Kerr Middle School at 517 SW Johnson Ave in Burleson. It has routes of 9 miles, 30 miles, 51 miles, and 100k. I'm thinking I'm going to ride this one, weather permitting. More info here.

Any idea how hilly this is?  I'll probably make it.

It has a few hills, not as bad as cleburne or Muenster, but a lot of flats as well.  I'm pretty sure I've done it.

It's Johnson County, so there's lots of rolling hills, but I don't think there's any really tough hills.

Well I backed out , and went to WRL and rode with Tony.  He took me down the Santa Fe Trail.  Got to see my ole High School, Woodrow Wilson as he was going back to pick up his vehicle which was getting repaired.
 
On the way back to WRL I saw the most beautful woman in the world riding a bike.  I think she might even ride faster than Mark.  Needless to say that once she passed me I was completely unable to catch up with her, even though I did try.
