Griffen Bike Factory Tour

Derek and I should be both be off, so we're in!

Wish we were guaranteed warmer weather.  Lake Ray Roberts isn't that far away to practice OWS.

Oops. Nevermind.  It's about 40 miles away.

Wow.  That is really cool.  I'm in tentatively...I'll let you know early next week.

Would they get irritated if I kept saying, "That's not how it's like on my Cervelo."?

We were told that there really is no limit to the size of the group, so feel free to join us.  The factory moved from southern(I think) California late last year, to North Texas.

OK...so far it looks like

Marcy - Dodgersmom
Steve - Doughboy
Aaron - JeepFleeb
John - jcagg90
Laurie - Tri_it_cajun_style
Derek - Derek_L
Joseph - hosayif
TJ - zia_cyclist (maybe)
Andrew - Big_Red (maybe)
Kenny - Ten9T6 (maybe)
Chris - Camy
TexOma

Looks like a great group!

OK.  I'm in.  I guess we'll firm up place and time later?

I can not make it as I will hitting the slopes in Park City. Should I wear my HR monitor to track my time in the different zones? Please ask them if it would be OK if another group came up at a later date. If another group wanted to go, I would propose that everyone bring their bikes and go for a ride after the tour. There should be some nice open roads in that area.

Could a BT discount be in the offering sometime in the future?

It looks like there will be quite a few of us going, and positive reviews of their bikes and facilities could be some of the cheapest advertising they could get.  It might be worth a discount to move some bikes.

Ron, Marma, any thoughts??

OH...had to be a change of plans.  The Owner's wife passed away 2 weeks ago.  I met her too and she was a really nice woman.  Anywy, the memorial service for her is Saturday.  He was very apologetic, which made me feel bad since his wife just passed.

He asked of we could reschedule for March 3rd at 10:00.  So, that's the new date.  Sorry for the inconvenience but they are really looking forward to us touring the factory.

I'll still be there.
