Meeting: The June Roadrunners Microwave Group (RMG) meeting will be held in northwest
Austin on June 21st, with lunch beginning at 11:30 at the Triumph Café. Lunch will adjourn to the meeting
at the offices of Neuric Technologies nearby.
Triumph is fairly easy to get to; all but the last few blocks is freeway when coming from the south. From
the north ( and depending on your choices below) it is mostly freeway or feeder.
The Triumph Café address is 3808 Spicewood Springs Rd, Austin, TX 78759 with directions as follows:
From the south: Take I-35 to the US 71 / 290 (Ben White) exit at the south side of Austin. Take Ben White
west about 2-3 miles to the US 360 exit (keep to the right). Merge onto 360 going northwest for about ¾ mile
to the Mopac/Loop 1 exit. Take Mopac/Loop 1 north about 5-6 miles past the Austin proper to the Spicewood
Springs exit. (This is Spicewood Springs to the left/west and Anderson Lane to the right/east). Turn left/west
onto Spicewood and go 3-4 blocks to the Triumph Café, which is at the far end of a strip center on your right
side. It has a dark maroon sign on the building.
From the north: Take I-35 to Round Rock to get you onto Mopac/Loop 1. You have two choices, the Tollway
45 west or the FM 1325 feeder west alongside the tollway. The FM 1325 exit comes just before the Tollway 45
exit in Round Rock. These two merge options (just past Parmer) onto the Mopac/Loop 1 freeway. From the end
of the tollway at Parmer, take Mopac/Loop 1 south about 2 miles or so to the Spicewood Springs exit. (This is
Spicewood Springs to the right/west and Anderson Lane to the left/east). Turn right/west onto Spicewood and
go 3-4 blocks to the Triumph Café, which is at the far end of a strip center on your right side. It has a dark maroon
sign on the building.

Directions to the post-lunch meeting: Loop back east onto the Mopac freeway and take it north about a mile to
the Braker Lane exit. Turn left onto Braker and take it to the first light, about 2 blocks to the west (Stone Lake,
it believe). The Neuric building is on your right, the northeast corner of the intersection, at 2030 W. Braker, Suite
180 in Building 1.
