FRIDAY, February 26 - Mabee Center (Liberty) to Ex. Springs - 9:30 start

Riders,
   Let's do the lunch run to Excelsior Springs. This is the same ride we did on October 1st. My cell is 816-699-1498; you might put me in your contacts in case you are running a little late or get off course dutring the ride.  It looks like the start temperature will be around 40 degrees at the start and warm to the low to mid 50s.  It also looks like the return will have a moderate headwind.
  • We ride from the Mabee Center on the east side of the Wm. Jewell campus.
  • We start at 9:30 AM.
  • We ride to Excelsior Springs.
  • We "do" lunch at the Wabash BBQ (menu) there.


  The route is approximately 37 miles total, 23 and a fraction out.  The outbound route goes through Missouri City on 210 and Old 210 before turning north on N into Ex. Springs.  The return is on H all the way back to the Mabee Center.

If using GPS, here is the address for the Mabee Center
924 State Highway H
Liberty, MO, 64068
