North Texas Classic 12Apr2014
Apr 2nd, 2014, 4:13pm
 
Hey, for those folks on the West side of the metroplex, there is the North Texas Classic on April 12, 2014.  http://www.northtexasclassic.com/    
 
I probably won't ride this one due to oral surgery, but I know several recumbents that are.  Hope for good weather.

Just curious, lots of chipseal?  And if so, how fine is the grade?

I ride the first 10 miles of his often and is is good road, there are some hills on it and a really fun downhill...think 40mph  
 
Greg the first and last 10 miles are on the perm we talked Saturday, so be aware of your start time.
