I'm considering this event... Mostly because that Sunday is autocross in Houston...

Being 21 is an optimistic POV

Meetup Details:

When: Saturday, May 5th 2007 - Meet at Whataburger located at 17480 W Grand Pkwy, Sugar Land, TX (Hw 59 @ 99/Grand Parkway) between 8:30 and 9 AM for breakfast. Drivers meeting at 9:15 AM and on the road by 9:30 AM !! Don't be late !! Please gas up before arriving as there will be no gas stops before leaving for Shiner and few along the way.

Everyone is welcome and remember this is not a contest of speed although there will be more than a couple of opportunities to test those redlines. There are a few planned regroup spots, so those who want to take it easy can do so as well.

You can check out the route here on maps.live.com

http://maps.live.com/?v=2&cid=C1749CAC...2&encType=1


Oddly enough our drive is just under 120 miles total from the starting point (about 12 miles from my house), but if you map the shortest drive home back to 77074 it's just over 120 miles (via I-10). Not bad considering the out of the way route we take.
