October hundred k

I will host LSR's October populaire Sunday, October 16, at 08:00.  We will do Steve Petty's Bobcat Bite, a nice 64 mile ride, starting in Celina.  Any and all of you are welcome to come and ride.  Let me know if you are interested.

Steve and I are planing to ride this ride, It would be so much fun to have some of the guys that we have not gotten to ride with in a long time to come out and play. (Paul, Greg, Nelson, Bud, Ray,) I love this route.

Oh....that sounds interesting!  Does one have to be an LSR member and/or RUSA member to get credit for the ride?  Also do you have a link to the route?

No memberships are required to ride.  Bring a few bucks for refreshments at the checkpoints.  RUSA membership is required to get credit for RUSA kilometers.  If Dan Driscoll shows up you will be lucky to leave without signing up for RUSA, Lone Star Randonneurs, another ride, and The Texas Time Trials!   Cheesy

The route doesn't appear to have changed from that posting.

Count me in - my riding today got washed out, so I did my church choir stuff today instead of next Sunday...

8:00 AM rollout.  I stole this from RM's post on the LSR board:
 
Get to Celina from I-35 to 380, and go East through Denton about 25  
miles to 289 (Preston Rd.)  Go North about 6 miles to where business  
289 splits off to the left (Oklahoma Dr.), and take it up to Walnut.  
Turn left a couple of blocks to the town square, and left again on  
Ohio one block down to Main.  Steve says there is parking around Ohio  
and Main.  If coming on 75, turn West on 380 and go 8 or 9 miles to  
289 and turn right.  Proceed as above.

Unfortunately, Peggy has to work this Sunday (due to the Rangers) & I'm not sure what I'm doing on Sunday.

Not sure if I will be able to make it.  Been sick this week.  However DH just got himself a new F5 to play with and he might come out instead.  Otherwise, once I get over this invasive lung crud, I will be back riding!
