Cross Timbers

This charity ride starts and finishes at the Texas Motor Speedway. It had a good turnout of rbenters. I had been debating whether to try the 100 mile route or just settle for the metric century route, since I’m still recovering after chemo. It ended up not mattering. Before we even got out of TMS, Greg and I followed others who made a wrong turn, we both hit a grate in the middle of the road, and our ride was over after 1 1/2 miles. The grate trashed my front wheel and broke the frame on Greg’s Carbon Aero.

Here are photos that Paul took of the ride.
Here are his videos.
