Event:    Wimberley Club Trail Ride/Convoy
Date:
       23-Sep-2000
Location: Wimberley  Texas
Description: This was an excellent event for our club.  One of our members is post-president of the Wimberley VFW.  Wimberley is about 20 miles South and West of Austin.  He mapped out a 50+/- mile route around Wimberley on the back country, less traveled roads.  We all met at the VFW and then headed out for the drive.  It was an opportunity to check-out my NOS speedometer I had just installed.  It tracked to the 1/10th of a mile to the GPS I had with me.  After the drive, we had lunch at the local Dairy Queen.  One of our San Antonio members missed us on the departure but met us for lunch.  After we ate, we went back to the VFW and conducted our regular monthly meeting at that site.  Well worth the time and effort for this event.  And the jeep ran perfectly.
