SIPNGAS · 03-06-2009, 10:30 AM

I'm guessing there will be plenty of us doing that..and it's an easy drive from the north...long...but easy.

PreciousPups4U · 03-06-2009, 10:46 AM

Sunday and Thursday are the reduced rate nights. They are on $79 each, where as Friday and Saturday are $129.

Just making sure you know there is a price break.

Can't wait to see everyone.

PreciousPups4U · 03-06-2009, 11:47 AM

Wow, my 7 1/2 hours isn't looking as bad as I thought to Nashville.

bikegerm · 03-06-2009, 11:55 AM

I'll be there !! I live here !! Can you say "tour guide"?

ImportAlliance · 03-06-2009, 11:59 AM

With hopes that I won't get in trouble.....some of you may want to check out Honda-tech.com. Yes I've referred you off forum. They have a bunch of caravans organized from as far away as Wisconsin, and maybe Minessota, and definitely Illinois and the upper north east. You may be able to get some ideas on checkpoints there. And you might find some additional drivers to roll with.

Matter of fact here's the link. Mods please accept my apologies if I've screwed up. If some are coming from the midwest or from up north these may be the best and most fun ways to get to IA. If these don't help it'll at least inspire you all on how you may want to plan based on the people traveling and the places you need to swing through.

There are a few of us coming from Wisconsin/Illinois who were planning on driving down together but hooking up with more might be fun..even IF they're driving Hondas.

Kidding about that...lol I'll check out that forum when I get home...I push it enough being HERE while at work.

KCALB SIRAY · 03-06-2009, 05:53 PM

Guys and Gals. I'm going to have shirts made for the event. This contest is a great idea. My ex father in law runs a print shop (shirts, key chains, decals, mugs, etc.) and will be producing them. If one of the mods could start a contest with the idea for a design contest, I'll be more than happy to have them produced. If we could keep the color design down to a 3color image, it will greatly reduce the cost of the shirt in the end.

The shirts will be produced via silk screen. All designs are welcome.

Mike

PreciousPups4U · 03-06-2009, 06:16 PM

Great idea Mike. I would suggest a bright color (rather than white or black) for the shirt if pssible so we can stand out and easily keep track of each other.

When my daughter's now husband graduated from Marine Boot Camp at Parris Island she made our whole group bright yellow shirts to wear, it sure made it easier to recognize the people in our group in the sea of people there.

KCALB SIRAY · 03-06-2009, 06:19 PM

good idea, yellow or red were my first choices

eTiMaGo · 03-07-2009, 11:59 AM

And while on the topic of t-shirts, here's the design contest thread

KCALB SIRAY · 03-09-2009, 12:21 AM

The drive is 10 hours for me, woohoo. I'm leaving Thursday so I can have Friday to relax a bit. Still not sure who actually is going Thursday, anyone?

mikenacarato · 03-09-2009, 01:17 AM

haha its so awesome to see everyone just excited as me about this. i cant wait!

PreciousPups4U · 03-09-2009, 01:23 AM

I am going to try to work it out so I can come on Thursday. I will have to wait and see if I can work it out though.

KCALB SIRAY · 03-10-2009, 11:56 PM

reservation made

PreciousPups4U · 03-11-2009, 12:01 AM

Excellent, who's next?

KCALB SIRAY · 03-11-2009, 12:03 AM
