Fun ride 8/31
Aug 18th, 2013, 2:42pm
 
Computer up and running so here's the info.  Yearly Lancaster air port ride set for 8/31/13. Ride will leave from Segoville Texas. Take Hi-way 175 east to Stark rd. Robinwood Baptist Church is located on northwest corner, Plan on leaving at 8:am potty is other side of 175 and Stark. 16 miles to airport. Return trip maybe longer if we have to go for ice cream afterwards. Bring $15 to cover cost of entrance fee, food and ice cream. Will spend at lest one hour there. Don't forget this is a fun ride, 12 mph avg or less. How ever if Paul and or Dave is there they can lead a FAST group. Activities at air port will be Fly-in of WW!! air craft and car show along with food.  There will be no maps but maybe Sweeper will be there.. Smiley

How about starting at 8:30 AM, so our Grandbury and Fort Worth riders can get an extra 30 minutes of sleep and all of us will stand a better chance of getting some homemade ice cream? You could install your surrey top, so you wouldn't get too hot on the return trip.  Smiley

Don't be a hard-headed old man. I could bring a spray bottle to spray you down with, if your radiator overheated on the way back.   Cheesy

Uh oh. Let's see, one rest stop per mile for 15 miles (14 stops) at 15 minutes per stop would consume 3.5 hours. Kenny would be fried by then.  Cheesy

Jerry, the last time I talked to Kenny he said the start time was going to remain at 8:00 AM.

Terrie and I will be there on the Margarita Machine -- sounds like fun!   I would ride from Poteet, but Lawson has too many hills for the tandem...  See you at the church!

Out of the $15 is it $5 for the air/car show and the other $10 is for the Food we will eat along the ride and at the air show.
