Sat/Sun rides and more rain


























The Saturday ride was an uneventful 45 mi ride but the Sunday ride was more interesting. A couple of the riders that come to the Sunday ride come over on their bicycles and came by this "accident" site. We rode from our starting place to the site and just had to take some pictures. As you can see from the inserted green airbourne car the he traveled quite a distance. This was at the end of street with a T intersection and he missed the turns. From the curb you can see he scraped some dirt before becoming airbourne and the went thru both sides of the storage building. He hit nothing on the ground, bushes, trees etc from the curb to the storage building. Our thoughts were his blood alcohol was above 0.08 and the reports were he walked away from the site as no one was there when the site was discovered on Sunday morning. No witnesses and the car had a Mexican plate but a Gieco insurance card on the car. We all would have liked to have seen the accident. Just notice all the onlookers. As you can guess we never know where we are going or what we are going to see on out Sunday rides. When people ask where we are going we reply we follow the leader and get back to the starting place with about 30-40 miles. OH yes it is again raining in Big R and we will have a 40 degree temperature drop over the evening - From 87 this pm to 45 in the am

This is the website for more photos of the Sunday ride. Look under the home page for photos and then the Sunday ride. Lots of history if interested

Whew - RAIN

It started raining Sat evening, stopped early Sun am and then started again Sun afternoon. first rain in a LOOOONNNNGGG time. Had a bicycle party on Sunday and some people rode in the morning but I did not as I do not like wet streets - remember it rained late Sat evening and early Sun morning. Couple of hockey games into the season 1:1 and another one this afternoon (Mon)

On one of our Sunday rides we heard there was FREE ice cream in the Farmers Market in Dallas. So we all headed down for a free snack at our rest stop. Here is the pictue of the group - (motley looking). This lasy weekend rode 55 mi on SA and 35 on SU so I'm resting today MO. STARS start the regular season this FR after going 6:1 in the pre-season. Last night the STARS had a alumni game and the coaches were the goalies of the teams. The alumni were mixed with the current players and played 25 min halves. Fun hockey but not rough. Lots of hooking, obstruction but no hitting into the boards. Other than that some old stuff in Big R
