In years gone by my wife and I would leave Friday morning to drive to Wichita Falls for the HH100. Leaving home round 9:30 AM we would drive north on I-45 to Corsicana where we would turn west on US287 through Ennis and other small cities. Usually we would stop in Waxahachie for lunch and to stretch our legs.
After lunch driving got serious with traffic increasing as we neared Fort Worth. Many times the road construction on I-35W slowed us to a crawl until US287 turned west.
One year as I drove over a rise on US287 the speed control sped up to compensate and a DPS State Trooper turned on his red lights and pulled us over for being 2 or 3 mph over the limited. After I explained what I thought happened he gave me warning and reminded me to drive safely.
Once we arrived in Wichita Falls we would go to the MPEC to pickup my registration packet. With the packet in hand and T-shirt safely procured we would walk around the consumer expo taking pictures for a Texbiker.net article and talking to people at the booths.
Once the expo was explored we went outside to watch the criterium race and the people cheering. With the heat still high we wouldn’t stay too long with my wife seeking out the rare shade while I watched and took more photos.
With the races still going on we went to our hotel to check in, take our suitcases inside and figure out where we would eat. Until it closed we usually went to Luby’s because we liked the food and choices. Once it closed we looked for other places near the hotel. Fed we went back to the hotel and I went to bed early to be well rested for the early start of the ride.
