I plan on a ride to Talihina on Saturday leaving from Chilis at 8 A.M. This is at the corner of 380 and 75 in McKinney. We may get back about 5 P.M.
what is your route going to be
It is not exact yet but head through Bonham to Paris and North from there. I plan on heading East South of Talihina and head up over the mountain coming out just South of Talihina.
what time do you think you will be in paris, i might meet you there
I will do some checking and let you know. I think the last time I rode this route we got there about noon.

I'm working both days this weekend, Bob. Hate to miss.
