Sat June 25, Mesquite to Combine, 7AM rollout

[Reposted in new thread - from Tony Ward (not me) ]
 
I'm thinking of doing this route again likely including the additional miles to Combine on Saturday morning.  I'm going to map it out and attempt to follow it using my Garmin 705 so we will see how I do since I'm not familiar with these roads at all.  Anyone interested in coming along?  Even better if you know the way in the event the Garmin lets me down.  I'd like to roll out from the high school at 7am and keep a 14-16 avg pace.
 
Here is the route as I have drawn it:  http://ridewithgps.com/routes/490879

That's the correct route, and at Mile 38 you take a right, then another right at the curve, to go over to Combine -- there's a gas station on the left corner that's a handy place for a break.   I can't join in this time, due to prior committments...  but you might consider backing up to a 7:30 start to get a couple more sleepyheads...   Smiley

If anyone is remotely interested - let me know and I will see what we can change (rollout time, pace, distance, etc.).

I'm pulling the plug on this ride since no one else is interested and I don't feel like riding alone.  To be rescheduled at another time.  I think I'm going to go ride with the PBA Tweener Fast Group instead - haven't ridden with them this year.
