My place is further Houston than Smithville. I live in South Austin Will Cannon/Slaughter exits off of 35....
I would be willing to let you park at my place if you have the time....but it would be much further for you...

We are to stage at the VFW hall. Big parking lot and I am sure they won't be real busy at 0900. However, last funeral I went to in Smithville, everyone went to the VFW hall afterwards. But there is a lot of room. Also across the street is the American Legion (I believe).

so it will probably be ok to stick the pick up and trailer (5x10) at the vfw and ride in the group with the bikes?

Folks, it's been brought to my attention by a North Texas Ride Captain that this VFW parking lot is caliche (rock/gravel) so be VERY careful when pulling in or leaving. Again, keep your eyes locked on this forum and to those of you who've sent me your South/Central Texas contact info, I'll be shooting out an email to you as soon as I have the final itenerary.
I'm going to do my best to try to run to Smithville early Wednesday morning for final recon of the area and I'll report back as soon as I can Wednesday evening. Things are rocking along at a fast pace so stay tuned.
Thank you SO much for what you're doing. PGR Texas ROCKS!
