Michigan Convoy to IRP

[rcaldwell]

Well its getting close to that time of year. Is there going to be a Convoy to IRP this year? Me and one other truck will be taking off some time friday from the Ann Arbor area.

I think there is going to be a crowd heading down sometime friday morning from the east side of the state (picking up some canadian feller) then meeting up with the ohio guys? (not 100%) Ill be in on that one. I dont think anyone has thought much about it yet but its good you posted about it.



jdakin, dispatch, r-n-r, macb, graphic man, doug1810, I6dzl, cpoling, protwinturbo99, silver03? digger? RBratby? JCL? black05? and myself..... just to name a few that might be in that convoy.

I take it this is for that little 500 mile race in a couple weeks?



I'm going, wouldn't mind joining a convoy. I'm coming out of Wisconsin, though. I usually clear Chicago by mid-late afternoon on Firday.

 

[Graphic man]

Anyone is welcome to join in..... I am sure someone will list our route a few weeks before the meet

Smokes... . you had better call them and fill them in LOL :-laf

 

[IC Smoke]

Scott is right Greg, We voted you to be the caller... . or maybe it was the doctor... .



*ohio crew* have you guys talked about what time and where youre going to meet up? youre going to have quite a convoy already arnt you?

 

[Holysmokes]

I Think we are going to have a good convoy. I believe we are meeting at 9AM at Dennys / truck stop, eating,fueling,and headed west. If we are meting in Dayton (example) it would be some time around noon or so. I might be wrong but Im just trying to figure outloud.

You want me to call? I can if yall like. :-laf

 

[Graphic man]

That may be a bad idea Smokes LMAO

i think i will be leaving toledo about the same time as the central ohio guys. i will do some mileage research and let everyone know. I think we would have time for all you michigan guys and I can meet for breakfast. depending on what time all this happens.

[woodsrat]

That smokes guy is in the bottle again. We are meeting at 9am. Like we do every year. Go over to dennys for some grub. And as for the police one of the locals up there has taking care of that for us.

 

[Holysmokes]

I stand corrected. I ve made the changes in the post. If you show up at 10 your late.

 

[Holysmokes]

And as for the police one of the locals up there has taking care of that for us.

... . and the hotel manager... have they been paid off handsomly too? Oo.

 

[I-6DZL]

Are us MI folks going to meet up somewhere, say like Blissfield (toledo campout location) or maybe dundee ( 10 min north of Blissfield)??? Then we can all convoy down to the OH clan and join up. Both locations are 15 to 20 minutes away from the OH, MI border on 23.



Next question how fast does the OH clan like to run. Campers in tow, trucks in tow?



I'm trying to get my dad to come down with me, if he doesn't i'll fit in with someone.
