Here was the last CTC run to that area, Feb 2009 and we ate at Klump's:
Re: CTC February GTG - 01-27-2009 ,
We took 21 to Bastrop and 290 east to Carmine to meet up with Jerad and the Houston cars.
Ok, let's start here. I have been trying to figure out how to best work this, and if we eat at Klump's,
http://www.klumpscafe.com/, then it looks like meeting in Carmine on Hwy 290 at the 458 intersection might work best. Then we can country road it to Round Top and to La Grange. Most of those roads between Bastrop and Round Top are not real friendly, and they have torn some of them up to redo (not sure if they are done yet). If 'yall came 21 to Bastrop then 290 to Carmine, it would be mostly country. Might actually have time to go pre-drive some roads this weekend.
Here is my current plan:
1) Meet in Carmine at Hwy 290 & 458 (Centennial St.).
2) Spur 458 to 237
3) Stop at Klump's in Round Top for lunch
4) Continue on 237 to La Grange
5) Hang out at River
Optional: Have any of you driven the bluff on Hwy 77 in La Grange? It's not real long, but it is fun and right by the river. Kinda have to circle around town to get to it and then come back to park or go through the bluff, u-turn, go back thru and then go park. This whole part is dependent on time and want to participate. I think it would be an enjoyable time and plenty to fill a Sunday GTG, but others may just want to eat and run. The bridge over the Colorado in La Grange is awesome. I am going to see if any good pics can be had.
Please feel free to express any opinions, as I am just making this up as I go, and there are TONS of other options on this route.
