Here is the cruise route I picked out. Fleet Farm has non oxy so everyone can top off before leaving. I think we should leave Fleet Farm at 10:15 as it calls for 1 hour and 11 minute drive time. So this gives us a little extra time to be there before 12:00. Lunch is TBD at this point, will look into places to go after if people are interested. Hopefully the weather will work out as I seem to pick the rainy days.
I plan to be there.
I may drive directly from home in Minneapolis since it's Northwest.

I'll be there too, but not certain where I will meet up with the group. Circle Pines a bit out of the way for me too.
Chris, I can't enlarge the map to get any detail as to the actual route for a meet up. Can you pm me a live link to that ?
Andrew...I really like your avatar pic. It really hits home how far that car has come in less than year. It would be cool to be able to split the pic to show the before and after. I'm proud of what this club came together and accomplished and always amazed at seeing a basket case back on the road.
Within 15 ft of your avatar 8 MONTHS ago, as we were dragging it in to the daylight...

Yeah it really is incredible.
I think I can figure out a way and how to split the photo. I'll take a look at that over the next week or two.
Time permitting I want to put together a quick photo slideshow that I can bring to Nationals in July.

Chris P.-Is this a rain or shine event? Sorry to say the forecast for Sat. currently shows strong thunderstorms possible. Could change of course.
Is Sun. an option? It only says a thunderstorm is possible on Sun, not strong.

No I can't change it, they are opening up just for us I believe. I had to pick dates and they had to Okay it. So yes it is rain or shine.

That works and should still be fun. Will make the call on Sat. morning whether to drive the Malibu or the truck.
Yeah, that gave me enough detail of Maple Grove to figure out the route on a live map, thanks. I think I'll shoot to join at 101st St. I'll plan to be there by 10:35.
Andrew, that could be a good meet up point for you too. 494 to 94 west to Maple Grove Parkway exit, left over 94 to stop light at 95th ave, go west to Lawndale, north to 101st.

Sounds like a plan.

Hoping to tag along... lotsa stuff going on this weekend.
If I can make it, I'll join in at Main St./Jansen & Hwy 55 in Rockford. If it goes as scheduled, you should be there about 11am.
(There's an SA just west of where the road comes back together, I'll watch for y'all)

Oh come on, Jenny was looking forward to having you out of the house for a while...
That truck and car will wait a few hours...

Don't wait up for me in Rockford. Not going to be able to make it.
We are setup for a tour on June 16 at 12:00 pm.

I'm in. Tina has to work, so I'm solo.

Mitch try this to see if it helps?
