I like the ridding early Idea. I would be coming in from North Houston thru Hempstead and Bellville down 159. I like that road. I have never actually stopped in Fayetteville. Anyone going out 290 let me know and we can get together at Buckees.  |

If anyone from DFW wants to ride with me, I'll be leaving around 4:45am from home. I'll stop in Hillsboro at the Mobil station on the frontage road at exit 368A (Whitney/Corsicana 22 exit) at 5:45am for about 10 minutes. (This stop is not necessary for me but it is a good place to meet anyone coming from the 35E side of the metro area.) The route is not fancy nor particularly interesting - down 35 to Waco, Hwy 6 to St Hwy 77, stop in Cameron for gas and stretching, to LaGrange and then 71/159 to Fayetteville. I just need to ride somewhere - been cooped up in our Honda Fit for the last 2 weeks!!! This is the way I'm planning to go. http://goo.gl/maps/ExIGrOptions open on return trip. I may head to Austin to visit my son Andy. I might go to San Antonio. I may ride like a bat from hell back home. I might join the circus. Just don't know yet. I do not consider myself a ride leader for this trip - just an FYI for anyone who would like to ride along with me. Further, I may cancel at anytime if my kitchen pass is pulled. I'll post a cancellation by late Saturday night if I must, but all indicators are green at this time. Mark |

I will be stopping at Buckees in Cypress to top off about 7 leave at 7:15 to go up to Hempstead and then take 159 out to Industry so I can make the back road ride on it. I had to look up 109 and 159 to find out where it was. I should be rolling into Industry on my black std about 8:30.
I had a great time today and look forward to next Saturday.

RainMaker in da' house after a 562 mile day. Thanks for setting this up, FB. It was great seeing everyone and seeing Texas Deb riding her Batcycle was great. F-Stop led me on a nice ride through the backcountry to Austin, where I visited with my son and daugher-in-law so a good day overall.
Think I'll sleep well tonite.
