It is not too early to start thinking about travel to Bowling Green for the NCH event. Other than Kevin and Dave, are there any coming from Chicago area or north? Quinn?

Previously several of the Midwest group met in Mattoon, then hooked up with several coming from the west in Mt Vernon, IL. Thoughts?

When are people leaving? I believe the ones that are golfing are going earlier. I think Kevin and I plan on getting there on Wednesday. I have to check with my people.
 
I had not planned on getting involved with the golfing. Probably head down on Thursday for all day Fri, Sat, and return Sunday.

Bob
 
I know that Devin and I are heading down there on Thursday. We can meet up with you, Bob, in Mattoon. If anyone is coming from north (or NW) like Quinn or Dr Phil - can can travel down through IL together.

Keep me posted.

OK, Those coming from the southeast (God's Country) if interested in traveling via XLR convoy I start from Orlando and will likely blaze through Atlanta, Chattanooga and then Nashville toward Kentucky. Anyone interested in falling into the stream is welcome.
Let me know and we'll try to coordinate it.....

In past trips we met up with Orlando and surrounding area people at a McDonalds just before they all entered Rt. 75. It's a very convenient place to meet. So, if you or any others would like to meet there please feel free to join up.
 
Anyone along the northern route... WA, ID, MT plan on going we can link up here in MT or anywhere else along the route that works.
 
Coming out of Canada, to Fargo to Cedar Rapids to Champaign and onto Bowling Green. Arrive Wednesday 13th. With any luck Phil D Cooler will be there waiting.

He will my friend!!! :D
 
Madmac, if you are coming thru Champaign, we are quite close.

I also registered some time ago. Don't know the date, I thought you were getting info from NCH. My girlfriend and I will be there. Mike

AirMike are you going to pass thru St Louis on your way? I currently plan to meet up with the MMs in Mt Vernon and caravan down with them. They are early risers, so I expect to meet them in Mt Vernon around 10 or 11AM on Thursday. Would be nice to have you join us.
 
Giz,
It would probably be about 1:30 when we are in Mt Vernon. Those from up north (Chicago area) meet up with me in Mattoon, we have lunch, then head that way.

Sounds like a plan, Bob. Can't wait! :cool:
 
GizmoQ I had originally intended to travel the US60 route down by Springfield Mo. But I might just meet up with you guys around Stl, TomTom and mapquest always want me to take that route anyway. :) I have a vette buddy traveling along and will have to take that up with him. I would bet on meeting up with you all. Thanks for the invite. Mike
 
Bump

Thursday departure it is. Other that Dave, anyone coming from Chicago, N Illinois, Wisc?

Got any ideas where we can meet up in Mt Vernon?
 
Yep,
After merging onto I57, take exit 95, turn right at the end of the ramp and right on Potomac Blvd. right into the McDonalds parking lot.

We'll be there around 1PM.
 
A week away!

Some of the XLR caravans will be leaving next Wednesday for BG. It is hard to believe... time has gone by so fast.:wave:
 
I didn't know you were a songwriter!:lol::lol::lol: I have golf league on Tuesday night, but knowing you & MT Rocket will be in town, I'll be done early and we'll paint the town.....oh wait we will be leaving early the next day.:dunno::dunno:

Aw what the *ell, we'll do it anyway!! Looking forward to seeing you all again.

We will have five XLR's on Wed. morning heading into Indy to pick up a few more.:cool::cool:

Drive safe!! We'll see you next Tuesday!!



We leave on Friday ( if I get off early) Saturday for sure, and of course they are calling for rain. Good thing is I'm leaving the rain behind.

Well I pulled out of ....... rolling down the road to Bowling Green
I've got my XLR wound up and she's running like I've never seen
There's a speed zone ahead but that's all right, I don't see a cop in sight
Four days on the road and Cubby will be buying me a drink Tuesday night
