Nick & Becky Gerlich report on their ride across Texas. The daily report.
Tour de Possum – Texarkana, TX
You will ride in Arkansas and Texas on this tour, and climb to the highest point in Miller County, Arkansas with a spectacular view, making this ride a little different than most.
The Tour de Possum routes will include distances of approximately 20, 30, 40 and 65 miles with moderate riding terrain. Route maps will be available at the tour. SAG and Rest Stops provided.
Start and finish the tour in Downtown Texarkana at the Broad Street Pocket Park. The Park is located at 102 East Broad Street at the south end of State Line Avenue. (Out-of-towners ask for directions to the Bi-State Justice Building). Parking is available on East Broad Street and behind the Pocket Park.
Early registration is $25.00. After September 8, 2007, the fee will be $30.00.
Performance Bicycle Store #2 for Houston
Performance Bicycle will open its second Houston store in late July with a 7,200-square-foot store at 7549 Westheimer. The store is part of a plan to open 100 stores over the next five years. The Chapel Hill, N.C.-based chain currently has more than 70 stores nationwide.
Horse Country 20K Time Trial – Aubrey, TX
The TT will start from the Aubrey Intermediate school and run 6.2 miles West on Hwy 428 to the turnaround. The road is moderate chipseal, but we make up for it with wide shoulders, no stoplights or signs, and a course that puts a premium on both aerodynamics and climbing skills.
