If anyone in Austin going to Waco for ride in with North PGR let me know I will be passing through Austin area probably around 7 am to make it to Waco by about 8:30 am. Usually run toll rode for fastest/least traffic, route by Austin. I saw the shout about the austin site and have gone there for meet up informaiton.
