A bunch of friggin' lunatics.
Seriously, it's just a bunch of us in the Chicago area who hang out at cruise nights, car shows, lunches, dinners, bars, drives, etc. Membership is open to anyone who shows up at an event.

Meyers wants them gone. After the 700+ car night that shut down the whole parking lot they want out. The RM cruisers are trying to get a new location.

The show at Meijers is no more next year. The club that runs the show does not have a new location yet.
That is one of the biggest cruise nights in the area with a great variety of cars and some cool people too.
