I would hope 35 since MV speeds require the shortest distance over faster travel roads. Plus, they would make a pretty long line behind them on 21 coming in from Madisonville. Not that the people in Marlin, Calvert and Hearne won't be inconvienenced when they come down 6. At least most of 6 has the passing shoulder and 21 doesn't for that stretch.

Where does the Houston-ish area convoy start? :)

I live on highway 6 - but sooooo far south almost to Galveston.

I was thinking at Bucee's at 290 and Mueschke in Cypress at 7:30 on Saturday. This is only me thinking and others may have a better idea. If we leave there at 7:30 we should make it to Navasota around 8:45 (I think OLAG89 is coming that way) and then Bryan at 9:45. Don't want to miss the choppers. That's going at a lightning speed of 45mph.

Just my 2cents, anybody have any better ideas? I wouldn't have any problems leaving earlier or different location.

I'm still good with the Houston meet up at Buc-ee's. That is going to be an early morning for me, but I don't want to miss the helicopters either.

Cypress, TX 77433

I'm trailering mine...... yea I've already heard it.... but I'd rather get there and then break something rather than break something on the way.....
I will set the timex for 8:45 in Navasota anybody have a favorite spot? Our convoy from Houston Armory stopped in navasota, but don't remember where...
How about a head count so we can figure if we need a parking lot or a field?
I will have two trucks with trailers......

Barrman what does it take to be "official"????
Were dealing with R.A.
IT's probably too close to date, but I'll put a call in to a Buddy in TXARNG in Austin, I think he's home now... Maybe I can get some help from them.... Big problem is money for fuel.....

What is the current per person cost? Do we know how many total are coming? I will have a possible total of 4.

I submitted the request as a Steel Soldiers' event. Since Steel Soldiers in not listed as Non-Profit, we were denied. I will submit the request for next years event as an MVPA event, since they are listed as Non-Profit.
