All,

Am kind of thinking about trying (again) to ride the Loop of Lake
Livingston ride (100 miles) our of Coldspring....

Current forecast is OK (mid 30s at start, sunny up to 50s with high
clouds).

Thoughts? Another option is to stay local and go a little shorter and
do Livingston a bit later....

Jim McC mentioned a nice ride done recently from the church just S. of
242 on 1314 that included Tony Tapp, etc... could be an alternative?

Greg,

I am game for either ride. The church ride can be made a century with
addition of 2693 loop.

That's why I was thinking of a local 90-ish miler.....

Then we can tackle a century in a couple of weeks!

I'm for the local option. The route from the church on 1314 is a good
one...a mix of hills and flat. Could consder counter-clockwise. Now if
we could just get Mark Cates to pace us along....now that would be a
great day!
Some weather forecasts are showing upper 20s for Saturday morning.

Greg,

Sounds good to me. See you Saturday. Right now Channel 13 weather shows
20% chance of rain with the low around 37 degrees. and light winds out of
the south. Probably change 10 times before Saturday.

upper 20s then going to the upper 50s...cold start then moderating
temperatures. Should be a good day to ride.

Great ride today guys!

Nice group of 7: Jim McC, Kris Y, Bill W, David C, Mark C, Paul P and
myself. Great 93 mi route Jim! Very cold at start but awesome after
a couple of hours.

Good riding today by everyone!

Totally agree. Good ride for everyone. Good tempo and regrouping. Nice
pull by Greg down 150, I saw 34 MPH at one point. Was good to see, Kris and
Paul, as usual they both rode very strong.
