Route Plan - 106 miles from Exxon Station to Pickett House (one way)
 
I am thinking we should meet and start at Exxon @ SE corner of I45 & FM-3083 on the north side of conroe at 9 to 9:30 then go out 3083 to left on Airport Road then up to county line rd. then pickup 3081 thru the Sam Houston Forest up to a left on FM-1725 to right on Hwy 150 to left on FM 945 at Evergreen to left on Hwy 156 just north of Coldspring then up to right on Hwy 190 at Point Blank then cross Lake Livingston on the big bridge to Onalaska then follow 190 on thru Livingston to Woodville. Coming back there are several options we can decide over lunch. I will bring my Delorme Maps Texas Atlas so we can use it at lunch.

Sound good to everyone?

We can set a KSU time convenient to those folks coming up from Mexico. Or, they could bunk at our place in Montgomery after the Tech Session in Spring on 10/17.

Of Course it's dirty. It's hard to clean when the tires keep moving.

Hey Bryce, if you do end up going, do you want to link up and ride north together?

So far it sounds like the roster includes 4 bikes/5 riders:

Connie
Carol
David
Marc & Andrea


Maybe's.......
My buddy Jerry on his new HD Ultra trike.
David is Candy planning on making it?
Kandie is working Sunday, so she won't be able to make it.

I talked to Ron (Bayou-biker) and he said he is going to try and make it.

Randy - check back Saturday evening. By then I will have posted more accurate times. Tenatively, KSU at Exxon about 9:30 to 10:00 (depends on those coming up from Mexico :stickpoke:) arrive at Pickett House about 12:00. I have never been there so dont know how busy they get with the Sunday after church lunch crowd.

Would be great to meet you there. Hope you can make it.

Just using Lucky's words. She called it "Mexico" when she was trying to calculate how many miles in the saddle she's planning Sunday :t I figure about 320 miles for her.
