New Year's Day Brevet/Pop in Texas!

[Pam Wright]

Hi all and Happy (almost) New Year! Time to make plans for January and why not kick off 2019 with your January R12 or P12 rides all checked off Jan 1st!  LSR is hosting a 100k Pop and 200k Brevet, followed by pot-luck at the one & only Danimal Driscoll's shack.  We'll also probably do a NYE dinner near Dan's house, so let me know if you're a maybe for NYE Dinner :)   Cue Sheets and GPS:  Official cue sheets at the start and attached later on, but in case you want to do some pre-ride foreplay: GPS 200k:   Rip-Snortin' Rando Ride (Brevet) GPS 100k:   The Doctor's Daughter (Populaire)  Please join RUSA and LSR before the ride start.   RUSA can be done online:  RUSA MEMBERSHIP and  LSR memberships mailed to Dan:  LSR MEMBERSHIP FORM  You must be an LSR member to ride the 200k and you must be a RUSA member to receive credit for either ride.  Plus joining now gets you December membership too if you're a new member.    We'll be partying at Dan's Shack after and it's all pot-luck.  We've had some awesome food, drinks and goodies, so please bring a little somethin'-somethin' and I'll keep it cold, heat it up or set it out while you're out riding.   Here's the scoop...  please RSVP to let me know who's coming so I'll have enough cards and please let me know what goodie you're bringing to share, so I can answer the question "what should I bring" when others ask!  Even if you're a maybe, I'd rather plan for you and please don't "assume" I know you're coming. OUT OF STATERS Still don't have your December R12 or P12?  Think about coming to join us the weekend before NYD and knock out December.  Stick around for Tuesday and knock out January! 200K BREVET 7:15am   Start:  7:15am from 2811 Hollywood, Arlington, TX 76013 SAG:  In true rando-style, this is a self-supported ride with 24hr C-stores along the way.       Must be LSR member to ride 200k- Please mail your membership in today Must be RUSA member to get RUSA credit - Please join today Daylight - Basically 10hrs - 7:30a-5:33p  Bring lights - headlight and at least 2 taillights, plus you might want to read your cue sheet (be courteous and don't use flashing if riders are behind you Bring reflective gear - unless you KNOW you'll be done before dark (can you really "plan" time for flats?) Route - Rip Snortin' Rando Ride (thanks Jerry Austin!) ACP 200k brevet medals available from RUSA website after successful completion     THE POP POP POP:  11:30am OK, so this is your chance to "spread the word of randonneuring."    The pop is 100k vs the 200k brevet You do NOT have to be a member of anything if you don't want RUSA credit (but you DO want RUSA credit!) You SHOULD be a member because you'll want to do more after this Starts later (so you can stay out later the night before) Starts later (so you don't need lights or reflective gear) Starts later (so it'll be warmer) Starts later (so you may even have 200k'ers finish with you) Get your significant other or unsuspecting civilian friend to come ride this, while you ride the 200k!  Everybody wins Join the party afterwards at Dan's Shack RUSA Pop Pins are available from the RUSA website for successful completion Even if you're a "maybe not," please let me know you're a maybe.  I'd rather plan for you than be surprised by you showing up! So, ask any questions and send any newbies my way.  Let's get 'em hooked!   Ciao for now and holler back with questions!
