Austin Ridge Riders Club Ride / Trail Maintenance and Campout
Rocky Hill Ranch 9:00 a.m.
Mark your calendars for December 11th & 12th as Rocky Hill Ranch and the Austin Ridge Riders are planning a weekend of fun, and an opportunity to share our love for the trail.  There won’t be any snow or sleigh rides but there will be happy groups of mountain bikers swishing along the sweet singletrack under the Loblolly pines. And while we won’t be roasting chestnuts over an open fire, you can warm yourself up with some hot chili and cornbread. …

Weatherford West Ride and Tour
Date:  Saturday, December 18, 2010 9:00 am
Type of Ride: Club Event – Fort Worth Bicycling Association
Location:    Weatherford, TX
Sponsor:     Jerry Franks
The distance options are 42 or 65. The 42 mile route goes to Clark Gardens and the 65 mile route reaches the recreated 1850’s village in Palo Pinto and may offer Clark Gardens as well. Clark Gardens cost $7.00 and I’m told is beautiful in December. The “Old Jail Museum” folks will open the village in Palo Pinto just for us, so I recommend we all make a small donation. If you don’t have time or desire to tour, you’re welcome to ride only. Meet at the TXDOT parking lot at 1423 W. Bankhead in Weatherford. Take I-20 to Weatherford Exit 406 then turn right/north on S. Bowie to Highway 180. Then left to first light and left to TXDOT on the right.
