DFW cruise down to Twisted sisters 8/8/14

[Dustin]

Not far at all. Like I said, fill up in Crowley, then take 174 down to Cleburne. Once we're farther south, head over to the HEB off of Canyon Ridge Drive. Looks to be about 10 minutes from Lime Creek Road.

Not as twisty as lime creek but faster, more scenic, and no LEO as Jyn calls them so you get a little of everything. I've done that particular loop several times - whenever there is some excuse to go to marble falls.

For ease in the GPS use: Marble falls, Sandy Creek Park (Leander) which is off Lime Creek, Hamilton Pool Park, Marble Falls. See the google map for the route - I think you'll like it.

Hmmm looks interesting. Will have to see if it works for everyone! Thanks for the suggestion!

I'm down to do lime creek or the other way mentioned above. I've never been either way so . I've heard a lot about lime creek so I kinda want to do that.

I don't want to be leading this thing and get us lost lol

I don't know yet if I'll be able to join y'all Friday noon time. It entirely depends on my new employer letting me take that day off. If not then I'll be going Friday night.

So put me down as maybe for noon.

@carbonBLUE I updated a map for us. I added a point in Cedar Hill where there is an off ramp and on ramp and doesn't seem to be a terribly busy area.

I kept the rest the same taking 281 to Marble Falls and then to lime creek road and back to Marble Falls and we can decide to go from there if we want. Unless we take another way after lime creek road?

As of right now I plan on leaving the Frisco area around 10:30am so that should put me in Cedar Hill around 11:30 depending on traffic.

looks good to me, when you get close key me up via radio ill be waiting in the parking lot. it looks like all lights are green for me going unless my doctor tells me otherwise. For those of you who dont know i was diagnosed with cancer recently. ill know more soon enough.

There's a Valero right there at the highway 174 exit in Cleburne. For those of you leaving the Dallas area, how long will it take you guys to get to Cleburne? About an hour? Just trying to coordinate a meeting spot with you guys. I could try to be at that Valero around 1ish if that works with you guys.

@Dustin According to Google maps it takes 36 minutes with no traffic to get from Cedar Hill where @carbonBLUE and I plan on meeting right now. Our plan was to meet there around 11:30ish so that should put us in Cleburne a little after noon. If this worked out it shows it would put us in Marble Falls a little before 3 unless we hit traffic somewhere.

Is 1 the earliest you could do? Just curious, I'm not sure who all else can leave with us Friday since there hasn't been a lot of talk from anyone else

Oh man! I'm sorry to hear that! Hope everything is going well and you are able to get the okay from the doctor to go with us!

I can get there at any time after say 9:30 AM so we should be good.

We could just make this the meet spot at say Noon, then go from there. Might need a better address for that.

I just got through adding a bunch of E85 stations to the map I made and I found a Valero in Lampasas that carries it that is right on our route. As long as I top off there I shouldn't have to go into Round Rock to fill up.
