On another note; who's planning to do the pie run this weekend? I'd like to go if someone has a route in mind.

I'm planning to do the pie run. I can come up with a route.

By the way, is anyone else having trouble loading Chads .gpx files?
I made them with Honda Trip Planner. You can try going the the link and loading them there, using the "Import from my GPS" option.
I don't have a device that uses gpx files to test them on. I make them, then I convert them to .trp to use with copilot.

No problem, I just can't get Garmin Mapsource or BaseCamp to open them. You would think that a .gpx file is a .gpx file. But apparently, like so many other things, I am not right.
Try's these gpx files. I converted them from whatever GPX file format Honda Trip Planner creates to GPX 1.1 using routeconverter.
I also attached the copilot trp files in the zip file if anyone wants to try them out.

Thanks Chad, those worked, after I recalculated. Not unexpected. FYI ... the Waverly House is right at the intersection of Hwy 75 and FM 1375. If you were traveling east on FM 1375 and crossed Hwy 75, you would run right into the parking lot. You can't miss it on the route you have planned.
It's finally cooled down a little bit. Anyone up for some outdoor dinning this week? How about Mediterraneo?

So who's in for the Pie Run on Saturday? I can't believe we are getting weather this nice
and pie
.
We'll be leaving from Rudy's around 8:00. I should be there sometime between 7:30 and 8:00 to grab breakfast before we head out.
Paul and Jerry, we'll be riding up trough Baytown if either of you plan on going and want to meet us in route instead of at Rudy's.

I'm not going to make this one.
If anyone is still playing along at home, here is the updated route.

Karen and I would like to meet you at the Valero at I10. It looks like it will take you about 40 minutes to get there so we can ride out there and be waiting. See you there in the morning.
The Valero at I10 and 565? Sounds like a plan to me, see you tomorrow morning.
