Thanks Roy. I will have maps at the drivers meeting so if anyone is uncomfortable with the pace they can follow the route without having to keep up. I always talk about this at the drivers meeting. “There is only one foot on your gas pedal.”

[itsaz]

Add us to the list. We'll meet y'all enroute.

That is sooo TEXAS. LOL There is or was a place out that way called “Chateau Bubba”. It looked like a Bar & Grill.

[oyealiz]

I let Iron Chef know that I was attending a Vette event closer to home, but I see he didn't make it to tell yall. :willy:

Glad it was a good day for the run!
