Re: Lake Conroe / Livingston / Sam Houston

I'm not 100%. Been under the weather last few days. If I do get up there tomorrow morning, I'm parking on the East Side trail head. If I'm late, I'll try to catch up to y'all on the trail. I got the routes plotted on my GPS.

I'll look for you as we pass by the trailhead as I know your car and trailer. If you can make the KSU time better just to park at the Love's meet point so you save the $5 at trailhead and don't have to backtrack from Willis to trailhead after ride is over.

Glad y'all enjoyed it, I had fun too. Checking or trying to check the photos on the GoPro to see if it caught the deer that ran out in front of me just north of the East Trailhead. Had a second one over by the Olympic Training Center but I think it may have been too far ahead to show up in a photo.

I'm still catching it over the BBQ, and not calling sooner.

Re: Lake Conroe / Livingston / Sam Houston

I had a great time Tony even though I bailed early.

We'll have to plan an all street ride to somewhere neat soon.

That reminds me I forgot to tell you guys about my extremely near miss. Towards the end of the ride when it was just the four of us we transitioned onto a dirt road. I waved Ed and Ki around and stopped to put on my goggles. I took off hot to catch up and there was a huge dust cloud. Just when I reached and was enveloped into the dust cloud with 50% visibility, still accelerating and doing ~55mph a doe juumped across not even 10 ft ahead of me. It was kinda surreal because I had no peripheral vision because of the dust. I only could see the deer when it passed the 6 ft. swath of road directly in front of me.

Re: Lake Conroe / Livingston / Sam Houston

Dust! What dust?! I had to hose my bike off for a change so I could ride it again w/o getting dirty. With all the dust no one probably saw my wheelie when my forks bottomed coming out of 1 of the holes in that 'road'.
