Great ride in Johnson County. It will take you over both old and new roads, and usually in a different direction than you are familiar.
Join Jim in this ride that will change all you know about Johnson County. It starts in Arlington at Sublett & Hwy 287 next to the Chicken Express facing the west side of the Hwy 287 service road.
There will be distances of approximately 30, 40, & 60 miles and as usual, Jim has put in a lot of turns so be careful and follow the cue sheet.

Tomorrow I'll go on my ride wearing a USA jersey. I save it for Memorial Day, Independence Day, and 9/11. Just seems appropriate.
