If you're not interested in doing the White Rock Centennial Ride this Saturday, Tony and I are going to do the Rockwall "north" route, out 205, John King and 78 out to Lavon, this coming Saturday morning June 11. However, we're going to do an 8AM rollout to intentionally NOT join the Rockwall group "fitness" ride that rolls at 7:45 - since they might decide to do the South route instead. C'mon out for something different, on some pretty decent roads.
Meet in the parking lot in front of the Rockwall Cycling bike shop, which is next to the Target in Steger Towne Center, on Ridge Rd just south of I-30. Here's a map link

DISREGARD THE "A" FLAG ON THE MAP.... Continue forward into the parking lot to find us, we'll be in the center of the parking lot area that's to the NORTH of the Target parking.
This will be a no-drop ride, but we're planning to keep a
16+mph rolling pace if possible, so be considerate of this... we will probably be done by 10:30 at the latest, or maybe a bit longer. We'll go up to Lavon, to hit a gas station for a halfway rest stop and water refill.
Here's the route:
