There is still time to get on the list by 6/14/09.

We still have several members who have not responded and some who have not attended several of the last GTGs. Get on the list so we can have a nice turnout and enjoy each others company. That's what it is all about.


The List

1. Bill
2. Eric
3. John
4. Jared
5. Hal

6. Paul (maybe)
7. Paige
8. Skip
9. Seannon ( probably)
10. texas t
11. Chuck

The Plan

This is what I compiled from everyones posts. Let's all meet in San Marcos off I35 take exits #205 from the North and #206 from the south at the Logan's Roadhouse. Lot's of parking directly behind the steakhouse at 10:00 a.m.

Take 12 (Devil's Backbone to 32.
32 to 281 and go to Blanco. Eat.
Go back down 281 to 473 (Kendalia).
473 to Comfort to Center Point. 480.
480 to Camp Verde,break if store is open.
Camp Verde south on 173 to 2828.
2828 to Medina.
Return through Bandera, Pipe Creek on 16 to 46.
46 to Boerne and bust up.

Those coming from the south meet at HEB at 9:00 a.m. for the trip to San Marcos.
Those coming from Dallas meet at a spot and time to meet for the trip to Austin.
Those from Austin meet with those from Dallas, Brenham at a time and spot for the trip to San Marcos.
Everyone else meet in San Marcos at 10:00 a.m.

I hope that covers it. I wish everyone a safe and fun trip.


Coming from the south.
  • Take Left ramp onto I-35 N - go 30.448.9 mikm
  • Take exit #206/AQUARENA SPRINGS DR onto N I-35 - go 0.60.9 mikm
  • Make a U-Turn on N I-35 - go 0.81.2 mikm
  • Arrive at 1141 N I-35, SAN MARCOS, on the Right
Logan's Roadhouse

Coming from the North
  • Take Left ramp onto I-35 S toward US-290 W - go 28.345.6 mikm
  • Take exit #205/AIRPORT (TX-80 E)/LULING (RM-12 W)/WIMBERLEY onto N I-35 - go 0.71.1 mikm
  • Arrive at 1141 N I-35, SAN MARCOS, on the Right
Logan's Roadhouse

Skip that's great. I'm meeting Chuck and Judy at the auto museum where we met at 08:00.
We can get a coffee or whatever across the street at the station and a MacDonalds at the HEB?

I cant wait for Sunday! I will meet you guys at Logans @ 10 am in San Marcos.
Depending on how the time goes, I may have to leave a little early. I have to be back in New Braunfels by 4pm to bring Dylan home to Georgetown.

32 to 281 and go to Blanco. Eat.
Go back down 281 to 473 (Kendalia).
473 to Comfort to Center Point. 480.

Camp Verde south on 173 to 2828.
2828 to Medina.
Return through Bandera, Pipe Creek on 16 to 46.
46 to Boerne and bust up.


Is everyone aware that this route is over 200 miles long? Driving on side roads just the driving time will be well over four hours and not much time of socialicing. I am going with the majority, but I think the route should be cut a few miles (than again I'm thinking about myself coming from Dallas which is my choosing )

You know I have had this feeling also. 4 hours just drive time after San Marcos, plus socializing time. I mapped out my course and it is almost 500 miles and 12 hours.

If it starts getting late I will probably cut out after Camp Verde. It all depends on time. I want to socialize over lunch and at the store, and I figure if I have to cut out Camp Verde it will give me the best part of the GTG and still get me home at a decent hour. If it isn't late I will stay in for the whole thing.

BTW, have we decided where we are eating in Blanco? Same as March or a new place?

I am coming no matter what, but I wanted to announce that I may have to cut a little short.

Question Re: Ctc June 14 Gtg

Hey Stogey, do you want to shorten the driving in lieu of a little more socializing? In Blanco we can eat where we find a seat....
Go to Camp Verde Store, inside-outside seating, refreshments, old junk, etc. eliminate 2828 and Medina, take 173 to Bandera, 16 to Pipe Creek, outside Pipe Creek hook a left on 46.
Take 46 thru Boerne to New Braunfels and catch IH35 there. Skip and Chuck and I can decide at Camp Verde. Be a bit more leisurely and not have to rush.
What say You?

John P

We had nice turnout today with 11 cars. I really enjoyed the GTG. Hal, thank you for planning the trip and leading the way. Danny from Dallas, thanks for joining our GTG and making name tags for everyone as well as Crossfire business cards. We have a new member Chuck and his wife Judy from Kerrville. Welcome to the club and we hope that you will be active in it through your participation in our GTGs to socialize, show your car, have fun and make friends. Now for the down side, as we welcome new members, unfortunately nine members are not on the CTC roster effective today due to lack of participation (missed five or more GTGs in a row). The red CTC indentifying them as a Central Texas Crossfires member will be removed from the Official Texas members list. Re-instatement is possible upon participation in future GTGs .

Awesome run, as always. Even with logging 11 hours in the SRT! Even thought I know those Dallas guys logged quite a few more.

It was great meeting everyone that I missed on the last two meets. And thanks for the name badges Danney. They were a nice touch.
