I'm coming from the Hillsboro area! I think I have figured it out though! I can just head up 35E and meet up with y'all at the Sonic in Balch Springs. Gonna have to go right by it anyhow! Just going to have to wake up a little earlier!
I know from Waco you could cut across highway 31 and come out on I-20 in Longview. That would save at least 2-3 hours.Quote:

I'll be coming from the 67 / I 20 area. I'll probably try to meet up with the Alrington guys so if you want to meet up with us let me know.
Thanks guy's! I think I'll be able to find it though. Don't want you to have to wait on me in-case something goes wrong. It's about an hour from my house here in Whitney to Dallas. I did a mapquest on it so I have a general idea of where I'm going. :tu:
Anyone else planning on the IHOP location to begin with?
I'll be there.Quote:

What is your planned route from 75/spring valley? I am assuming 635 to Balch Springs. If so, I will probably pick you guys up just past 35 and 635.
Does everyone want to meet up at Bone Daddy's / IHOP parking lot that morning? Tobbun, myself, Tom, Ronald~Laney, Rocks, anyone else...
I'll have to re-review the route, but I think it is going to be 75 to 635 to Balch Springs. We won't be going toward 35, we have to go east. Just head over to IHOP in Richardson...it's not that far north from 635 anyway. Or you can meet us along 635.Quote:

For those who have them, what is the number that everyone uses to talk to each other? 5-6, 8-8,????
5.4:tu:Quote:

Not trying to be the "grandpa in the right lane", but I don't want to slow down this convoy, so let me know beforehand what the intended average rate of speed will be. I may have my son with me, and if so, I'm not going to be doing 90 for 2 hours.
TIA
You probably do not want to be trying to keep up with me then. I'm usually around 80 on the highways, but since Tom and Ronald might be trying to follow, I might have to slow down for them.....:burnout:
80mph is fine. I do that in our Expedition on extended trips. 90 is getting up there when you've got 20+ vehicles in a convoy, IMHO.
