I'm IN! HA!

Since I have to run afterwards I will be parking at the TOP of the hill, and not the usual location.

Looks like the cross street is Silveroak and Windhaven. I park on the North side of Silveroak, on a side street, next to an open field.

I will head over to the originating starting point at 6:30 to pick others up.

PS- I'll be running 3 miles at a 8:30-9:00 MM after the ride, if someone wants to join.

Not looking good... how? Weather wise? Or something else?

They keep saying it's going to rain and it never does.

Of course I'm sure I jinxed us just now.

I think my son is going to be coming with me to work tomorrow, so wouldnt be able to stop by on my way home if he is with me.  Usually Grandma takes him on Thursdays, so when she does, I am in.

Eh... just put him a backpack and he can come along for the ride. Plus, adding weight on your back will make the workout just that much more effective!

Thanks for the offer, I will bring his tow along and hook it up to your bike.  Not only is it heavy, acts like a parachute in this TX wind.  Sweet, you are going to break 20mph in your races no problem.

For the record- I'm only fast in the pool. HA! So no running people over on the hills.

Otherwise, this weather is complete crap. Not sure we will get to do it tonight!!!!

I will be parking at Sysco this time though, if we get to meet up. Won't be running after the ride.

Greetings,

I'm interested in doing hill repeats on Windhaven in Plano.
Is this a group ride?  If so, what time does it start?  Only on Thursdays?
Or is it more along the lines of show up whenever because its a small loop?
I've seen the map.  Isn't there a good hill also west of Plano Parkway?  Why does the loop do a U turn at Plano Parkway and not cross to the west?
Where is the best place to park?

Many thanks.

Steve

Hi Steve! You are welcome to join us.

Tonight, I'll be parking behind Sysco... off Windhaven.

http://www.gmap-pedometer.com/?r=2901165

Go West on Windhaven and take a right on Trinity.

We will be behind the building on your immediate left. I have a silver Mazda. I start riding at 6:30 PM. If I get out there earlier I check back at the parking lot at 6:30 for people.

Yes it's a small up and down loop. So we generally just ride up and down at our pace.

KSH,

Thanks for your reply.  I plan to be there.  I drive a maroon Acura MDX.  Will have a Texas Tech jersey on.  I will likely be there before 6:30 - more like 6:00.  See you there.

Thanks!

Steve
