The weather forecast is looking great. Lunch is planned for in San Saba and will be about 110 miles from Fred. Looking at 100 miles from San Saba back to Fred.
The Ride:
The loop is about 210ish miles and mostly dirt and sometimes pretty loose sand at times. We'll be on our lighter bikes (sub 650cc) for this ride and pace will be swift based on mileage for the day. Bring food (just in case no lunch stop). The route subject to change. The ideal participant can use a GPS with good way-finding skills.
When & Where:
Jan 2020 Sunday, 5th 9:30am and ready to start the ride at 9:45am
Fredericksburg, TX Walmart parking lot away from storefront nearest 290. (Let's purchase goods from them of course)
Your Bike:
Well maintained and ready to ride. Slime'd tubes to help prevent a tube fix on the ride.
Riders Safety gear:
Bring all your best gear and keep all riders safe and injury free. Have any emergency contact info available if needed.
The planned Loop:
History note of the area:
I'm now thinking as this as a Cherokee history route (if you will). Read or listen to the book Empire of the Summer Moon to learn about the struggles of the settlers and the Cherokee Indians. There was a lot of action within this area!
