Ranga,

This route was how I got to my old office at the bottom of the big hill 
on 2222. Of course, you can't go up the hill; but there's supposedly a 
way to get there via City Park Road (which would be the first light 
after 360) - so possibly use that part of my route and then investigate 
further. Big hills no matter what you do; hope your legs are in good 
shape. The part of 2222 between 360 and the hill is actually very nice, 
but you wouldn't use much of it if you turn on City Park. I guess my 
route helps you get down to 360/2222 at least, without using 2222 itself...

(This trip above is actually from Casis west of Mopac after I would drop 
off my stepson in the mornings; I forgot I hadn't completely filled in 
the 'from home' route - basically just head west on 32nd to Duval, north 
to 34th, west on 34th through Speedway, Guadalupe, Lamar, up hill 
instead of following cutoff to 38th, right on Jefferson and rejoin route 
above at around step 3).

Regards,
Mike
