Newbie from Dallas (yeah you GOT to love it) Texas
Hi All
Ray here from Dallas. Been riding for several year but getting more serious now. I live on the East side of Dallas, and ride the White Rock Loop a lot.
Looking to find long routes (min of 30 miles and WAY plus) on the east side that so I don't have to drive to Plano etc. The perfect ride would be one where I leave from house.
Nice site and thanks
Ray

Hi Ray and welcome to Bike Forums! I wish I can ride from my house too but between our town and the next town over (the other way would be the Delta) is a hill that is very high elevation and used mainly for cars to get to the other side. Very dangerous as the road is not cycling friendly and people are known to speed there. I have no choice but to drive to a starting point. Good luck on your search for a good route, I wish I were lucky in that aspect.
