What's your definition of the cities? I thought those were pretty much centrally located except for Stillwater.

 

OH SNAP!!!!! Dave you might be onto something here!! The Gophers are AT Northwestern that Saturday meaning the parking lot would be FREEEEEE! We could bring in our TAILGATING Party ...w/out the game;-) haha

I actually like all of these ideas, moreso the Dinkytown trl on the MISS RIVER(great scenery), and TCF stadium!!

 

Sweet. I think the new stadium would be a cool place for pics. There's coffee shops around there, plus I've always wanted to find a parking garage in downtown Mpls to take group pics with the skyline as a background.

I'm always in the federal courthouse, so I see a lot of good spots.

 

should we plan it for the TCF stadium parking lot then??

 

Dave where are your recruiting skills?? We only have 10 cars and 7 are G's!?!?!

 

Here is another Z. Only fair weather though. I don't like to drive in the rain. Coming up from the Rochester area. Hey, I drove Hwy 60 to Wabasha. Saw the TL marks on the road. I'd say he was definetly testing his tire grip ................... and lost.

Why is Dave always in the federal courthouse? Sounds suspicious.

 

so you'll be coming to the meet?

 

Meeeeeeeeeeeet

 

Trying to convince the liberal judges of MN to put criminals away....

I'm down for the small meet and cruise like everyone else.

 

Looks like MNSC is doing a 2 day cruise up to Duluth the same weekend we're getting together. Maybe some of us early birds can meet up with them in Forest Lake at the McDonald's to send them off.

 

I am coming too. Except I would have to leave by 2pm.

 

you guys should have the meet at bir and watch some moto scooter races

 

So let's cut the BS and make a decision already!

Meet at the U at around 10am? Annie's is a cool burger joint right there on University and 14th (I think). We could take over that block and watch all the hotties stumble around after a hard night of partying.

After lunch there, we should have figured out by then where to go cruising.

 

Will be up at the U when the time is finalized. 40% chance of rain for Sat. Hopefully, it holds off or the clouds are all drained by Fri. What is Lake Harriet like for cruising?

 

Dave if youre still want to meet up with the mnsc guys I could meet you there and show you some northern twisties, then we could make our way down to dinkytown.

 

I posted 10am on the G forum last week so that looks to be good Dave. I like the Burger Joint too...we're gunna look like piiiiiiiimpz..haha

 

If you're coming from rochester you should meet up with mike and cruise up with him. he has a blue 05 G35 that he'll be coming up with.

 

K, EVERYONE, it sounds like there are NO LOTS that are "free parking". We may have to switch locations?

Everyone has been talking about Lake Nakomis?? Big parking lot, huge park, lots of area to do what we pleeeease??

 

either that or calhoun and we could grill

 

**** me! stupid site sucks.... stupid multi-quotes don't work again

To answer some questions:

Yes, Lake Harriet and Lake Calhoun are nice but Calhoun has more parking and so does Nokomis. Nokomis is easier to get to for everyone, and if datakman is coming up from Rochester, maybe we should meet at Nokomis. Calhoun is hard to get to from any direction, and there's lots of construction around there.

If we go to Nokomis, we could always hit Fat Lorenzo's for food and drinks. Plenty of parking on the street.

I'm personally not in the mood to grill if the weather sucks, but if we find a good spot at the lake and the weather is nice then I could do some grilling.

If people are willing to bring charcoal, drinks, chips, meat and bread, then let's do it. Otherwise, pick Annie's or Fat Lorenzo's for a place to meet and eat before the cruise.
