Planning a ride to visit MMACH5 this Sunday

Sunday I plan on riding from Euless to Baylor Medical to visit MMACH5 (Michael Tripp McNair).

Anybody want to join me? We can merge routes and meetup along the way.

I'm open to time/route changes so we can make it happen. I'm figuring 8am(ish) start, and riding through north Irving.

I've already got one "yes" and one "maybe."

Here is my tentative route. Anyone who can suggest improvements, please do.

I can't unfortunately. Just one comment on that route, California Crossing is closed, although it is possible to get off and carry bike over the barriers.

Since when was it closed, and why? This if the first I've heard of it.
Where is it closed off at?

It's closed at Riverside and just the otherside of the bridge. It's entirely passable by bike, not be car.

It closed last year some time.

That route is my bailout option if the wind is too high and I don't fancy eating 23mph of headwind going home. I head through there, round the back of Manana to Walnut Hill and get the train home. My office is just past the end of the Campion trail.

Thanks for the heads up. We'll still try to use the route. Worst case scenario, we'll head south of 183 and use a modified version of my morning commute.

From Matt Malone via Facebook
"UPDATE - Heather asked me to inform any would be visitors that please hold off because of the MRSA. They want to protect him from any new potential contaminants. Otherwise, everything remains status quo at the moment. Just trying to keep him stable through infections and healing."


We will hold off until Mike feels better.
