We are having our 5th Annual Bonnie Reeves Memorial Ride to raise money for the Children's Advocacy Center of Ellis County. Last year we had a great turnout and raised a lot of money for a great cause. This is the route for this year's ride. We will depart from the Target parking lot in Waxahachie at midnight (Friday 7/18/08). We will arrive at the International Host Hotel in Peoria, Il. at 1:11 PM on Saturday afternoon for a 90 minute lunch, pictures and farewell break before returning back to Joplin, Mo. where we will arrive at 9:00 PM. We will spend the night in Joplin with a 8 hour layover and depart for Waxahachie at 5:00 AM. When we cross the Texas State line at Denison around 9:30 AM we will have logged 1568 miles. We will arrive back in Waxahachie at about 11:30 AM with at total of 1670 miles. Those wishing to push the envelope and go for 2000 miles in 48 hours let me know as I will continue the ride from Waxahachie to log the additional 330 miles needed to accomplish this goal.
