Where do you all want to meet and convoy out?

I have heard some people may be going in together for a hotel room as there is one right by his house. Now the carpooling idea. This is great. It is nice to see everyone making a real effort to make this event. You wont be disappointed, kraash's tank is a stunner!

Distance-wise, no. Intoxicated distance-wise, yes.

I figure any place on 70 after the 270/55 intersect would be good. By then everyone from MO should be on the same route.

Are you admitting to drinking girlie drinks?

Speaking of alcoholic drinks give this one a try:

Crown royal and Hot apple cider.

This was invented on a very cold night camping in Colorado with what was on hand. It turned out to be pretty darn good.

It does a great job of that kraash.

Don't forget you have a "chunk" of food in your freezer for me.

Looking forward to Sat.
