Hi all,
Dan got the ball rolling and here are details so far for this weekend.  May as well get your R12 ride done before weather starts getting in the way :)  Ol' faithful & challenging routes out west, but weather looks good for avoiding our traditional death marches in the heat...and thus this old brevet card!

  • 217k:  Old Dennis RUSA Brevet - so we get the extra time for the 17k.  Time: 14h28min
  • 300k:  Old Dennis ACP Brevet - Time: 20h
  • Park:  Please park HERE on Browder Ln. - <.2mi from Pilot and just past Quality Inn.  Exit #406 "Old Dennis Rd"
  • Start:  8am  Pilot/Wendys. 1201 I-20, Weatherford, TX.  Great 24h store.  Wendy's 24h inside.
  • Weather:  Latest from Epic Ride Weather below.  Will be cold at the start, especially with a bit of downhill the first 23miles.

  • Services:  Please look over the cue sheet.  Stores are well-placed, but the stretch from 23>61 has some challenging stretches.  Be prepared to carry what you need.  And....as you leave Peadenville for the finish, keep in mind, it's almost exactly marathon distance.  I can't help but think about running that last stretch.   Sheeee-it!

Hi all,
Not too late to join us out west Saturday.  May as well get your R12 ride done before weather can really get in the way :)  Ol' faithful & challenging routes out west, but weather looks good for avoiding our traditional death marches in the heat...and thus this old brevet card!  Note the weather forecast has gotten a little chillier at the start and a bit more NE wind.
