Do I get a T-shirt on this ride?

 
I think I've got a few spare tshirts left around from my "Jabba the Hut" days...   Smiley Smiley

Yes, thanks to all who showed up and rode!  I had a blast.  
 
My full report with pics (but no video yet) is up on my blog.  There's a link to it in my signature line.

For anyone interested - here is the map of all roads traveled from Rowlett and including the CCRBENT ride.  I know there are some roads up there I want to investigate.

Tony, north of hwy 380 is nice riding, though it is chip n seal.  We know a lot of the roads up that way too, so any time you want to wander up this way for a longer ride, either Dave or I will probably be available to ride on the weekends.

What we were on yesterday was pretty acceptable, are the roads you're referring to the same grade, or coarser?

Some is better, Weston rd was just resurfaced, and the rest of it no worse really that I can think of.  My perceptions may be affected some by the difference in Giro26 vs 700.  But if yesterday didn't shake any fillings loose, you'll probably be ok.
