I'm a new member as of tonight. I just bought my Crossfire two weeks ago, but I haven't driven it yet. I'm waiting until all the salt is off the roads. This car will only see sunny summer days.
I live outside Detroit. Please add me to your list of people interested in attending.
Thanks,
Roland

OK Gang - Here are some tentative dinner plans for the cruise:
Friday - Dinner 6:30 on the outdoor patio of the Red Ox Tavern on University approx 10 minutes form the hotel. Talked with the owner and he offered the entire outdoor patio (with fire pit), reserved parking, either on the grass in front of the restaurant or blocked off portion of the parking lot, and our group name on the reader sign in front. Downside is no cruise on Woodward unless we do it before or after dinner that night. However, last year we skipped driving Woodward on Friday night due to the heavy traffic.
Red Ox Tavern
Saturday - Working with the mgr of the Moose Preserve on Woodward & Sq Lake. Plan is to have dinner there Sat night around 6ish (hopefully on the outdoor patio) and then head back to the hotel parking lot. www.moosepreserve.com/
I think last year's plan to drive Woodward Sat morning from the top all the way down to the parking at 13 Mile is still the best route.
More details to follow on Dream Cruise parking location as they become finalized, but the plan is to park on 13 & Woodward on the SHADED high school lawn with the Prowlers & Vipers.
Weigh in if you have any issues with the dinner plans.
Also, Needswings is proposing cart racing, so we'll need to fit that in, as well as Ms Gump is planning a trip up to northern Mich after the Cruise week-end for anyone interested.
Can't wait until August!

Jim, Thanks for your help in orgianizing this for us. First let me say these are my opinions and I don't expect anyone to change their plans for me.
Friday night sounds like a great idea as planned.
Saturday morning starting at the top of Woodward is really cool. What do you think about starting at the top as we did last year, but continue all the way down to the south loop(?) and then back up to 13th? What is the hurry to park? That way everyone has driven the entire route. Its early and traffic isn't that bad. Ideas?
I (we) will probably miss Saturday dinner again as last year. We will just grab a bite to eat at LEOs and then sit and watch the cruise from our chairs until the end with all the motorcycles cops. Once the roads are clear, we will make it back to the hotel.
I am open for any comments/suggestions.
Also I plan to schedule a vacation that following week to travel north with the group. Wouldn't miss it.
