Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

DFW ride Sunday 5/26

Anybody in Dallas want to ride tomorrow? Was thinking about doing the 101 mile route starting in Flower Mound. I am staying just south of DFW.

You would probably have better chances finding riders by posting in the TX section I provided below.
I just finished a 2 hour ride in the 92 humid conditions today after two weeks in CA and HI.
I plan to ride again tomorrow but only 2..3 hours.

might be right. But figured this would be seen by more people.

Might do the coffee drive through in the am. Otherwise will just ride by my hotel. There is a bike path a couple miles away I have ridden in the past.

Here is an 89 mile loop around Dallas and you can pickup near Flower Mound

It will take about 6 hours at 16 mph
