Route 66 West to East
By Keith Misegades and Bill Glass | www.crazyguyonabike.com
Day 29 – Groom, TX to Erick, TX
Monday May 27, 2019, 75 miles (121 km) – Total so far: 1,345 miles (2,165 km)
Bill says it was a great tailwind day and it was out of the southwest. We were headed east all day long, so we got a good push and were able to cover 75 miles. Overall, the route was a slow descent all day from an elevation of 3250 to about 2000 feet. We are still fighting flats and last evening we spent time patching some tubes and thoroughly checking our tires for debris that could cause a flat. More on that later.

May Critical Mass
by FortWorth CriticalMass | www.facebook.com
May 31 Friday at 7:30 PM – 9:30 PM Burnett Plaza 801 Cherry St., Fort Worth, Texas 76102 The usual thing with Critical Mass:
- some riders begin to congregate around 7:00
- RIDE BEGINS at 7:30 PM
- casual, social pace
- 10-ish miles that will loop back to the start
- no stops (however many riders go to T&P Tavern afterwards)
We will be riding at an easy pace, but please be prepared. If you need help with something on your bicycle, show up a little early and someone can help ya out. …
