CJ are you planning on this?

I'm considering it--never done one before.

Anyone else going?

It might be fun or we could do a ride of our own - any good roads headed towards Decatur or Denton??? How about a semi Muenster run.
I wonder if Lisa would be interested?? Anyone??  Ideas?

What are your thoughts on this:

Farm to Market Route 2123 (green
Bridgeport to Junction SR 51 - 17 Miles

FM Route 920  (Blue)
Bridgeport to Weatherford - 35 Miles - Sweepers


you can't see it on the map but Weatherford is 920 (blue rd) ends

Mapquest from our house to 2123 has us taking I-35W to US-287.

1. Take exit 16A to merge onto I-35W N/US-287 N toward Denton - 2.9 mi
2. Take exit 60 to merge onto US-287 N/US-81 N toward Decatur - 15.8 mi
3. Take the exit toward State Hwy 114 W/Bridgeport - 0.1 mi
4. Merge onto TX-114/US-287 - 0.2 mi
5. Turn left at BC Rhome Ave/TX-114  Continue to follow TX-114 - 9.1 mi
6. Turn left at Highway 4599 - 1.6 mi
7. Continue on 2123 - 384 ft

It looks like 718 or 730 would also get us to Boyd do you have any experience with either of these roads?

I'm guessing back from Weatherford the Hwys will be best.  Might want to grab lunch at that point....

Anyone else interested? Open to ideas and suggestions.

Better be REAL careful, missy... We got a new sheriff 'round these parts (although I hear he only has 1 bullet... in his pocket) ;D
