BIG Houston meet/cruise to Galveston Island, Sunday April 13

There will be a large number of cars from several car clubs (primarily HPD) cruising to Galveston this Sunday. We want to join them after lunch to avoid getting stuck in huge lines, attracting too much attention from officials, and waiting 3 hours to get served for lunch.

So the plan is to meet at Starbucks on I-10 and Durham at 10am (close to the Galleria): 1801 Durham Houston, TX 77007. It's on the south side of I-10. From there we will take a short drive down to Kemah for lunch. After that we can hook up with people on the Galveston cruise - not to far from us. This is not a private meet so feel free to invite anyone who wants to join and not misbehave.

To Starbucks from the Northside: Take 45 South. Exit I-10 West. Exit Shepherd and Durham. Take a left down Durham and it will be on your right.

To Starbucks from Pearland area: Take 45 North. Exit I-10 West. Exit Shepherd and Durham. Take a left down Durham and it will be on your right.

Here is some brief video and a few pics from the last Houston/Galveston cruise I attended:

I was planning to go anyway but this sounds a better idea as I will have to leave around 1:30pm.

And I'll have the golf clubs in the passenger seat unless i can get someone else to take them for me

Think i'll have to drop them off tonight with someone.

I'll see you all in the morning! I think I'll just be meeting up in the morning because Matt's taking his g/f with him.

Paulie.. I think we should line up the Caddy vs my moms Lexus.. We can show these people what racing really is!
