Dave,

I don't have the lab set up, so I can not post the configuration right now,
but it is straightforward.

Suppose your hub's IP address is 10.10.10.100 and two or your spoke's IP
addresses are 10.10.10.1 and 10.10.10.2 respectively, and on spokes you only
have explicit frame relay to the hub(aka one frame-relay map statement).

Say you want to ping from 10.10.10.1 to 10.10.10.2, the router will try to
find the right L2 encapsulation for 10.10.10.2, but since you don't have the
L2 encapsulation information for it, the encap will fail. Now if you
configure a local PBR route map says that if the destination is
10.10.10.0/24, the next hop is 10.10.10.100, the router will then use
10.10.10.100's L2 encap and happily deliver it the the wire. Do the same
thing on the other spoke.

IT WILL WORK.
