I don't see anything else on the calendar right now...vacation is done, mom's house is on the market, looking forward to the CCC. Salads this week have been great...no more 'vacation' food! LOL! (Never though I'd say that!)

Ric, it was my impression that Jim and Tony were planning to ride on Sunday, June 3rd. Since a date has not been firmed up for the CCRBENT ride, I was going to suggest that maybe they would let some of us join them.

Well if y'all are thinking of riding WRL on the 3rd we could call it the CCRBENT ride for June. I'll probably send Dave, as he is going to do HHH this year and WRL would give him some practice dodging slower riders and pedestrians... (we don't have that problem 'out in the county'!) Cheesy

Otherwise I will be doing either a slow ride on Wilmeth like last time so new folks can have someone to ride with and get more comfortable on the roads, or I may just go out for the Weston loop which runs about 37mi total.

Arrrgh! I have to ride on Saturday, due to church on Sunday. Tony and I have not finalized yet, but Saturday was the plan...double checking the calendar that would be the 2nd. Looks to be around a 7am start. I've never been there so I'm not familiar on where to park. I planned to see how many .maps I could actually go, as a baseline for my HHH training.

Looks like Tony and Jim were planning to ride at WRL on Saturday, instead of Sunday. Just learned my Sister is coming to Dallas on Saturday, so I won't be riding. Also, found out there will be a running event at WRL from 8:00 AM tp 12:00 PM on Saturday, so not good news for cyclists.

Reply #24 - May 29^th, 2012, 10:39pm Thanks Jay...any other places we can try...I suppose my visit to the lake will have to wait. I'm still up for the CCRBENT ride if it is on, but I also want to do a longer ride just to see what I can do.

Normally he's good for more distance but he has fighting a virus or something this past week and he needs some recovery time.

I could try that. We'd have to coordinate maps and see where to meet up, I'd just ride from my house toward McKinney/Weston and meet up. I assume Dave would be coming from your house close to the route we took for the first CCRBENT ride. I could cut across from Melissa and meet up somewhere. I'm not beyond calling Kim to come get me either if I over extend. I just need a baseline for the HHH if I'm to do it this year... Smiley

If you could take 543(Weston Rd) out of Melissa into CR168 and ride that up to the CR166/168 intersection at Myers Park, that'd be about perfect. Then you'd get to experiecnce the full joys of the Triple Bypass! If your legs hold out, then you can just take 168/543 straight back home too. Or if you snag a ride from your wife, then Myers Park makes an easy pick-up point.
