    I might just be in for this.

    What about making a day of sugar hill then convoying down to crystal for the evening to hang, drink and eat then stay the night there.

    Just a thought.

    According to google maps. 3 hours 32 min.

    Its looking like Bryan Beach. We could take 288, or the longer more scenic route from galveston to san luis pass to bryan beach. There is a looong ass bridge that would be awesome to have a toyota convoy on. VERY SCENIC!

    Thoughts on this?

    Feb 2nd. That way we can work out the kinks!


    Im down if yall are down. But instead of crystal wed go to bryan beach. We can camp there.

    Count me in.

    Bryan Beach via Galveston would be nice. Can just pick a meeting location on 45 near Webster like at NASA Rd 1 & 45 in the parking lot of Burlington Coat factory shopping center (or whatever is more convenient) to meet up and convoy down to the island and ride the sea wall. Maybe make a stop at SLP and see what's going on there then continue down to Bryan Beach. (Just bring $2 to cover the toll at the SLP bridge for those who may know about it).

    Can also make the Buc-ees at 332 & 523 in Freeport the final meeting place for anyone who wants to go but not take the scenic route.

    Everyone is in for Bryan, so Bryan it is.

    I'm thinking we can meet at Grace Community Center (its a big ass church, cant miss it) and then convoy down to Galveston to San Luis Pass, to Bryan Beach.

    Thoughts?

    Address to the church: 14505 Gulf Freeway Houston, TX 77034

    For the most part yes. I hardly use 4wd down there unless I'm pulling someone out.


    You can also stay close to the water if your worried. I'll have a strap just in case. I'm sure other people will too.

    Not lame at all. The entrance can be a little loose at times but like Snorkie said, enough of us will have what it takes to get you unstuck if that should happen.

    Don't worry, if your truck has beer I got you covered! There is a bypass to cut half the beach driving. But you don't need to use that cause I'll be behind you!
