Jackie and I are leaving Friday morning from Indianapolis. I talked with Dick (TrickieDick) the other day and he said he's going, too. Just waiting to see if we're riding down together.

I know Tina(8 Legs) and Pat are planning on going and I'm sure will chime in. Also Dick574 said he is going. So we should have a good group.
I suggest those of you from north of Indy plan on meeting and coming down to my house Friday morning. Kevin, I will tell the gatekeeper to let you in(if you are accompanied by your wife):roflblack:.
Lets tentatively plan on leaving here around 10-10:30 or so(open for suggestions). I figure it's about 6 hours from my place.
Lookin forward to it.
I know myself and Indiana Pearl are going, as well as a fellow GOS member. Kevin and Dick have to go the furthest so I'll let them chime in on the time. Personally, I would like to leave earlier. Also, Dick (Dick574) and I were talking the other day and he suggested we take 29 to Indy. I'm up for that, also it will be convient to pick up Teri, GOS member, in Burlington.
If going by way of 29.........
I imagine some of you will be meeting at the truck stop in Peru on US31 (Gallahans), from there you can take 24 to Logansport. To keep from back tracking, I can meet up with the others at Speedway in Logansport where we can top off on fuel. Teri will be waiting at a station in Burlington to hook up with us. From there we can go to Dick's house in Carmel to meet up with the others then head to Kentucky. Let me know. Ideas???
I'm fine with leaving earlier as well. If everyone can make it here earlier then we'll take off then.
I'm thinking we can avoid the freeway as much as possible by taking 37 to Bloomington and picking up 45/445/54 over to the new I69 south of Bloomfield. From there, through Evansville and then hit 41 south before picking up 60 a few miles south of Evansville. Take that west and south to Kuttawa. It looks like about 274 miles from my house. Open to suggestions. :dontknow:

By taking 29 down to Indy, we miss all the construction crap around Kokomo. Kev & Tina, should we meet at the truck stop around 8 - 8:30?
Patty & Paul may want to meet there also. Is Jim from Peru going?
I haven't heard from Jim yet. I thought he said he was going, but I don't remember. Trickie Dick, can you call him to find out? I can meet up at Gallahans, need to contact Patty and Paul and see where to meet up with them.
Kevin, is 8 ok with you? Will there be 1 or 2 in your party?
Wife and I are leaving louisville area mid morning, heading through corydon, Brandenburg, hardinsburg, hartford, central city, on over to the hotel. Any southern In/louisville/cincy or lexington folks coming our way? We would love to have company.
Troy and Alisa McDowell
Troy, I'm not sure if Cathy Hale from Madison is going or not. PM her at halesangel13 & ask her.
Looks like Ill have to wait outside the gated community for you guys since my wife has decided not to go but as far as meeting at Callahan's I can be there by 8:00.
Looking forward to ryding down again this year!
You guys have a safe ride and a great time! :thumbup:
As for me....I will be on the beach soaking up the sun in beautiful San Diego, CA! :ohyea:
Yes its a rough job....but I will begrudgingly do it and take one for the team! :bowdown:
I may even raise my glass and toast you all!
:cheers: :roflblack:
Isn't that the best wife of all:thumbup:
[QUOTE=Trickie Dick;695413]I agree. She must be ashamed to be seen with him. :gaah:
With my good looks and charm, how could you say such a thing:clap:
I think it has more to do with the stories I come back with, trying to explain to her that you guys really are "kinda cool".
Maybe my sarcasm doesn't work to your advantage:lecturef_smilie:.
Any whoooo.....lets get this party started:2thumbs:
Ryde on.....
Kevin
ok, to everyone in Northern Indiana, looks like we are meeting at Gallahan truck stop on US31 in Peru at 0800 and leaving soon after. We take US24 to Logansport Road and meet Petty & Paul at speedway in Logansport. From there we take 29 to Burlington to pick up Teri then off to Dicks house, where we leave Kevin at the gate. Kevin, we'll pick you up when we leave :roflblack:
Dick, you can lead us from there, it sounds like you have a decent route planed out. Also, if you could, will you mail me the route so I can plug it into te GPS?
See y'all soon.
