Boulder Blues (Texas X board) Thanks for this info I stole from your post. Many of you have already commited to this one The more the merrier
This year, the route is mostly rural and there are some twisties to keep an eye on.
A Route Plan is included on the Metroplex Marines website (
www.metroplexmarines.com) under "Events" for 12/1/2007. We chose this route to provide a good mixture of back roads and in town riding. We will be going through rural Collin County, downtown Princeton and finishing up along mostly industrial Route 380. We will take it nice and easy.
We will have traffic assistance from the City of McKinney, Collin County Sherriff's Dept., City of Melissa Police and the City of Princeton Police. All intersections will be covered fro a smooth ride throughout. As always, the Marines will be providing our lead vehicle.
