    If U R coming from the North, take exit 271 (by Shell), TL, x I-35, road becomes CR 311, take to end, TR FM 1105, Church on L.

    The Walburg resturant opens at 11:30 for those wanting to stop afterwords & eat. Those going South can take FM 1105 through the country. Nice ride.

    Those coming from the South & going directly to the church, take exit 268, (FM 972) towards Walburg, TL FM1105, after curves, church on R.

    What a great day for a ride in the country to honor Mr. Klepac & his family. 20 plus bikes & cages showed up to hold Ol Glory. The family & friends made numerous comments of appreciation as well as commenting on the visual of seeing all those flags. So again, U made a difference. Thank you for Standing with respect for those who stood for us.
