Granbury Take 2

There was originally a lunch ride scheduled to Loose Wheels in Sherman, which is a biker friendly establishment, but unfortunately with the rains yesterday and the loose gravel parking lot, the ride was cancelled/postponed for the sake of safety. So we decided to head out to Granbury and pre-ride the revised route we planned.

This ended up being a better route we felt. Only real area of concern on this route was in Weatherford. Cool town, building (City Hall?) is smack in the middle of the road so there is a roundabout around it. Gotta love those roundabouts....
Then worse is the area around the mall/stores and I-20. Its on a hill, with a very rough road, and too much traffic for the roads.

We ate at the Nutt House hotel and restaurant. Had a very good buffet for only $9. For a Sunday Buffet. Took a very brief walk to check out the Devine Wine place as well. The girls will have a great time.

Ride home was pretty much a straight shot, took FM-51 (sweeping turns) back to I-20 them interstate the rest of the way.

It was a bit windy and cool but not cold. Didn't get a good count about 250 miles today.

Almost forgot, saw a couple of other Eagles on the route, totally unrelated. We saw Cowboy in his truck in Justin, very close to his home, and we saw Garred doing an ABC point in Northlake.
