Organiser's description

This one was a HUGE hit last year so we're doing it again.

Leaving from Farmersville to Wolfe City via a backroads network designed specifically to find as much shade as possible from Point A to Point B. From Wolfe City we hop on the Chapparal leg of the Northeast Texas Trail back to Farmersville under shad canopy almost the entire way back. This option is about 60 miles. Those looking for a shorter distance should consider doing a NETT trail out and back for the distance they prefer.

It's the best way to day gravel in Texas in August. FREE for Club Spinistry members. Single day Trial Membership riders can apply fees paid towards a full membership within 7 days of the ride.

Please be aware that this is a social, group ride. It is not a formal event or race. There are no course markings, aid stations or SAG vehicles. Riders are expected to self navigate and to be self supported.

More soon.
