Less than a week to go - get your riding gear ready!!

Well I just checked the weather forcast and it is looking real good.  High of 81, kinda cloudy, and maybe a touch of wind.  Not bad...

We have added two new rest stops to the routes this year.  The Beagle (27 miler) has a stop at the new TA center at I35 and FM77 (view the Beagle route to see location).  The rest stop will be in front of the Rangers Virtual Cafe, which is part of the new TA Center (gas/truck stop).  The cafe has granted permission to use their rest rooms.

The second new rest stop will be at HWY22/HCR4350 and supports the Bulldog (94 miler) and Greyhound (65 miler) routes.  This rest stop is about half way from the Brandon Rest Stop back to the Start/Finish.  For the longer routes, riders have suggested we add a place to rest and refresh on that last leg back to Start/Finish as it is mostly uphill from Brandon's rest stop to the Start/Finish.   Well, we agree, so now you have a place to stop and get your breath.  Actually it's a nice place for a rest stop as there are some picnic tables and lots of shade trees.  So enjoy...

We will be having hamburgers, hotdogs and all the fix'ins as well as live entertainment again this year in the pavillion behind Start/Finish.

So, it's not to late to tell all your biking buddies what a great ride their gonna miss if they don't show up for the "Waggin' Trail".

See ya on Saturday.  Resgistration starts at 7:30am with the ride starting at 9:00am.
