Default CI VI Caravan

Please read above sticky by Mojo. Please keep in mind that if you plan on following me to BG that it will not be a speed trip. No more then 10 mph over the speed limit. Also, I will be stopping to eat at fast food places only. Eat and go, it will not be a time to socialize or BS, that is what we will do at BG. Same for gas stops. Gas up, rest room and then go.

As of now I plan on useing the route that Map Quest suggests from Lakewood to BG. I hope to have a hotel picked out within the next couple of weeks and will advise everyone then. I'll be looking for one somewhere in the 10 to 11 hour range from our starting time. That way it will only be about a 5 hour trip to BG on Wednesday. That will put us in BG around 1 or 2 pm or sooner depending on our leave time from the hotel.

I'm going with the majority, as long as we are there in time for Roscoes BBQ, I have no problems.

I'm all for leaving at the crack of dawn on Tuesday, I don't know who else are early birds, but I love driving first thing in the morning.

God not _this_ drama AGAIN...

Go, don't go.
Drive fast, drive slow.
Arrive on time, or fashionably late.

Whatever you do have fun!


And crusher, don't forget I've got those blackmail pics of your car. Mohahahahah! So behave
