Default Tom's Turbine Drive - April 5th - 4pm

"Toms Turbine Drive"



If you haven't seen the windmills it is a sight to see. This route has many long sweepers and breathtaking views not normally associated with North Texas. We will get to drive near the Red River where there is light to no traffic. When there is traffic, the locals generally heed and pull over to let the group pass. Larger groups can be held very easily. There are 3 stop signs and 2 stoplights on this drive so that nobody should get separated. This is a very common route for motorcycle and other sports car clubs to have an event.

There are some fine German Style places to eat in Muenster. Rohmers is a great place to eat and also The Center is a great option.



What?

Tom's Turbine Drive

Where? (In the Good Eats Grill Parking Lot)

Friday at 5pm? How long is the drive? It's dark by 8:00. If I still lived in Dallas, it would be a beating to get there by 5. Although since I'm in McKinney now, I'll just work from home that day and shoot over on 380.

This looks like a lot of fun. I haven't explored those roads up that way in years.

I'd love to go if my alarm wakes me up in time

I should be able to be there, pending that i can get off work in time (shouldn't be an issue at all)
