It should go without saying, but I'll say it anyway.

If you can't keep up, you'll be left behind!

I kid.

Let's plan on the faster group waiting at the next turn as usual.

There is a gas station infront of the Tom Thumb (same parking lot as Starbucks).

Planning on heading up to the Illinois bend area via 407, 2264, B81, 730, 455, 677 all the way to OK. Great bridge for Photos and it is very long, flat and straight so do with it what you will.

Lunch in Forrestburg or Meunster either on the way or way back.

If we do Meunster, we can come back down via 373 thru Meunster to 922 back to Rosston and hit 362 (palmer st) ( If it is gravel, we'll just go back to Forrestburg) back to 455 and head east to Slidell and check out ECR then south on 2662, east on 2449 and 156 south back to Justin.

I'm probably out.

Is it because of the guzzi and cruiser?

Heh heh.

Steve, I followed the link in your previous post but it goes to a neighborhood in Highland Village instead of the Starbucks.  Here's a Mapsco link for the 2201 Justin Road Starbucks:

http://www.mapquest.com/maps?name=Starbucks&city=Flower+Mound&state=TX&address=2201+Justin+Rd+%23+311&zipcode=75028&country=US&latitude=33.072491&longitude=-97.061998&geocode=ADDRESS&id=8965265

Interestingly, this map puts the Starbucks in the exact middle of the intersection of Justin Road and Morris  [bang]  It's actually in the southwest quadrant of this intersection  [laugh]

Looking forward to the ride on Monday!

Thanks for the correction. I modified my post with your link.

Weather looks OK. Just checked weather.com. Monday looks like 47 low, 67 high and partly sunny. Not bad for first of March! Hope the wind isn't blowing 40+mph!! [moto]

As per the previous post:
Lets say 0930
On the road 1000?
Should get us back no later than 1600.

probably back before that depending on lunch.

If it is as chilly as it was today and I don't borrow my buddy's heated gear, I may have to postpone the ride. My heated grips AND throw-away-pocket-handwarmers that were stuck in the top of my ski gloves didn't really keep my thumbs warm. Swear they felt like somebody hit them with a spud hammer when I got to Stuart's this morning. It said 35F when I left the house.

I agree - this stuff should be fun, not a life-threatening test of endurance  [laugh]

I'd suggest everyone interested either give me a call at 1000 (972) 567-6375 or check the board at that time.
According to weather.com it is suposed to be 38F at 0900, 43F at 1000, 48F at 1100, 53F at noon, 57F at 1300, 59F at 1400, and 61F at 1500.
I'm game with 48F at 1100 to meet at Starbucks. Rolling by 1130?
Check or call at 1000.
