Heidi, I did a lot of leg work trying to find a hotel and I saved all the info. I'll forward you the availability I came across two days ago. It's pretty sparse inside the city limits.
Check your PMs.

Hello fellow Hotter N Hell crazy ones! I have finally registered myself and broke down and got a room in Vernon. It is a ways off, but it was an easy search! I look forward to riding it again this year..It was so awesome last year...Anyone that is riding, should we all meet and ride some miles together, or all?
Just an idea...I don't have anyone to ride with at this time. Some people that I rode with in a group are going, but their avergage speed is about 17 mph for 40 miles. I know that I can not go that fast for longer then 40 miles....soooooo...looking for a fun ride....nothing too fast!
KSH? Are you in? Hopefully, you can ride again!

If you want to pass me the info on Vernon I might get a room there. How far away is it again? Wasn't it like 30 minutes? Not too sure on that one. Hhhuuummmm.

Hey there Karen..I looked into a few prices there in Wichita Falls and they are price gauging (spelling?) so much! It is worth it for me to go to Vernon and pay 75 a night..then to pay 170 a night with a 2 night min! So, here is where I am staying. Days Inn, hwy 287 west @ Bentley. 940-552-9982...I am going to stay Friday and Saturday night. I am not sure if Lance will be in or not with his work schedule. If he isn't, I will have the room to myself..Bring on the dancers! LOL It looks like it is about 40 miles to the hotel. Could make it in 30 minutes or so....Still worth the miles compared to the price in WF.
Now, I just need to get back on my bike! Been 2 weeks! uhgggg! Talk to you soon and whoever else wants to meet for the ride!

Hey! What about this... Bowie? It's about 30 miles south of Wichita Falls. Closer and it's on my way from Denton. Originally Posted by rheidis73

Now, if Lance or Jonny decides to go...we will need another room, so maybe we can each reserve a room?"Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather, to skid in broadside thoroughly used-up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming: WOW WHAT A RIDE!!!!"

I signed up for the HnH today! No hotel rooms available so we will be staying at the Y. That's part of the whole experience IMO. I'll be sure to take some ear plugs. Do you all know your bib numbers? It would probably be unlikely that I could find you among 10,000 riders ...but who knows.

With that said, Heidi might need a buddy to ride with. She's WONDERFUL to ride with. I'm really disappointed I won't be making it this year. Last year, she and I actually found each other at the start and rode together the whole way.
So, if you want a riding buddy... hit her up vis IM!"Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather, to skid in broadside thoroughly used-up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming: WOW WHAT A RIDE!!!!"
