Anyone interested. I've lead a few groups here in the past but its been a long time.

Weather's looking good. Leaving from Exxon in Maypearl at the corner of 157 & 66. KSU probably about 9:30 but flexible on that.

As many dirt roads as possible with a some pavement linking them together. I'm not sure the mileage but I did about 100 miles out there the other day and will extend that some.

I'll be riding the DRZ but it's big bike friendly for the most part. A few places they've laid down new gravel/rock about 2/3's the size of a baseball and it hasn't broken up yet. There also a few dried ruts where pick ups went through it when it was wet. If you have a 1.9 gallon tank you will want to tote another gallon of gas along.

The pace is somewhere in between racing and teaching you how to ride on a dirt road.

If there's no one interested I might sleep in instead, so post up if you have any interest.

I know Rod but I'm kind of a wuss and not wanting you go that far. I'd have to leave a lot earlier and get home later. I saw your post earlier and it was tempting to go down today and room with you though. See my above about being a wuss.
 
I saw the wet on the radar earlier this morning but we didn't get it up here. Ellis County can take a LITTLE wet but that's it.
