who knows the weather better than a farmer? We occasionally hit frost during prep for our first planting which is usually around 4/10, give or take. by mid april it is hard to find areas with frost still in the ground. Obviously every area is different and as you move further north, it takes a few days longer.

I think we could have a meet in April just as sort of a a "Hi I'm so and so and this is my car" and then in May after the roads are cleaner and not full or rocks like our last spring meet then we should go for a cruise so i don't have to get my front bumper repainted again lol

I agree. If we do the twistees again the road tends a to be a little safer when it is not covered by left over winter grim and gravel. After all the twistees are best appreciated at a brisk but not dangerous pace. I say we look at early May for our actual Spring Cruise.

I just drove Hwy 60 through Zumbrota Falls today. Memories of our last Spring cruise to Winona flashed back to me. Remember the baseball field in Mazeppa? Still there.

Ben and I think that we should hit the 60 again this Spring, except this time we'll hang around the area for lunch and cruise/explore the surrounding twisties. Look at the map around that area and you'll see why I want to stay there.

So what's the latest? When's the next meet? Are we just going to wait until the Spring and have a big meet?

Aww

I'll choose a weekend once I see the weather start to get better. I guess this year, the first day of spring is March 20? So I'm hoping things go my way and we can do something in early April.
