Default Orlando Caravan to Lakeland - Saturday Oct 24th

Ian posted this over on Driver but I had a few people request that I post it over here too

Here's a link to the main Lakeland Meet thread. It has all the schedule and location information. Sign up to attend the Lakeland Meet there, sign up to caravan from the Orlando area here!

I like to meet at this location:

Publix on Curry Ford Road
10250 Curry Ford Rd
Orlando, FL 32825


Our Destination route would be:

Beef 'O' Brady's (Lakeland North)
1070 Wedgewood Estates Blvd.
Lakeland, FL 33809


The drive is about 1 hour and 2 minutes.

My G35 is still in the body shop so I will be driving there in my daily driver = Silver Infiniti I35 sedan.

If you would like to join, but don't live on the east side of town and would just like to meet up with us on I-4 or 417, that's fine. Jot down my phone number so you can link up with us or in case you get lost.

Ian Burias = !X!407*492*0212!X!


If you come with me in this caravan I'll buy you an appetizer :biggthumpup: at Beef O'Brady's. Haha.

Ian doesn't think he will be able to make it anymore....

Therefore I propose someone offers to "take charge" since I won't be caravaning from Orlando either. If someone could do this it would be really appreciated.

It looks like the Champions Gate Publix is one of the first exits on I-4 after the 417. Jose says it's exit 58. According to Google Maps there isn't a street address for this Publix so I used [8101-8149].

From Publix on Curry Ford Road
10250 Curry Ford Rd
Orlando, FL 32825

To Publix on Champions Gate
[8101-8149] Champions Gate Blvd
Davenport, FL 33896
(407) 397-2500

Total Travel Estimates: 38 minutes / 36.14 miles

From Publix on Champions Gate
[8101-8149] Champions Gate Blvd
Davenport, FL 33896
(407) 397-2500

To Beef 'O' Brady's (Lakeland North)
1070 Wedgewood Estates Blvd.
Lakeland, FL 33809

Total Travel Estimates: 26 minutes / 26.91 miles



If everyone could meet at the Publix on Curry Ford at 11:15am and leave NO LATER THAN 11:35... and then maybe meet the other group at Exit 58 at the Publix in Champions Gate by 12:15 (40 minutes driving) and leave NO LATER THAN 12:30... (30 minutes of driving will put you at Beef O Bradys at 1pm). How does that sound? Can someone who is actually driving in the caravan help to coordinate this? Thanks!
