I got a call from Bill at Tulsa Tough giving me my route for next weekend’s Tulsa Tough deliveries. The Gran Fondo will be on the same course as 2019, which was supposed to be temporary due to flooding issues that year. I have been delivering supplies for the rest stops since 2016.
Last year I made the Kellyville stop easily enough, but got lost on the way to Slick. Slick is a town that you miss if you blink. My problem was missing the turn to get to Slick. By the time my digital assistant told me to turn, I was half way to Bristow. I had to go into Bristow to find a place to safely turn around a 14 ft box truck. Even with that detour, I still got to Slick on time. Remembering where to turn will make it easier this year.
Apparently Tulsa Tough is short of volunteers. If any of you live in the Tulsa area, please sign up. We need truck drivers and people to set up and tear down courses all weekend. Most shifts are 3-4 hours long.
