Subject to other suggestions, my plans are to leave the metroplex on the 31st of August.. The time will depend on the temperatures, etc. The exact route is flexible and will probably run through Austin to continue south towards Corpus Christy.. hmmm.. Should connect with Morgan Kane, somewhere in that area.. Then, of course.. we'll continue to the border where we'll cross into Matamoros.. Anyone who is interested in this trip, feel free to offer alternative routes, dates and times.. We should be in Mexico during the Labor Day weekend, which includes the dates of Sept. 1 thru 4.. Should be a good long weekend with good riding and hospitality in Matamoros.. Regards.. Bill Walker Irving
