If you can find I-35, then you can get to New Braunfels...
Head N. on 35, until you get to NB, then exit Walnut, and turn right... there we are on the right..
You don't have to worry about getting lost while you are in our group... I have been thinking about it, and one of us that knows the rural trip should take lead, and the other on the 6. (EDIT: oops.. I mean on the end of the group)
All you gotta do is get there... looking at 75 miles-ish total, so a quarter tank of gas... even at premium you are looking at 5.80 in gas for the round trip.
12:00 it is.

Roads within our outlined trip are well-paved, and of high-use. Level, and smooth. They are in the hill-country, so don't get me wrong, there are climbs, etc... Nothing to worry about on a dropped car (except, perhaps, the bridge crossing on 311, but even that is relatively smoothed out, and nothing that angling across it won't fix..

No worries Julio, the roads are great. Whoever has a radar detector can lead and I'll bring up the back door. We'll have 2 stops. One in Spring Branch after the FM 311 run and one on Devil's Back Bone for pics(someone remember to bring a digital camera). And for those who have never been to Grin's, it was my hangout in College. Burgers, margs, beer, etc.

Same here... Possibly two of them..
I have a radar detector.. I don't mind taking the lead..
Although: I know what I like to drive on those roads.. I don't know what everyone else would be comfortable with. I think I will just stick to the limit +-5 for obvious reasons...
Anyone against this, or have other ideas? prefer a slower ride, etc?
(PS.. At the DB I will be waiting on the other side!!!! It's just so much more fun going a little faster..)
