Ohio Convoy to the 2014 Tail of the Dragon Event

[Stretch]

23 days to go!!!!!!!!!!!!



I'm putting together some details to send out to everyone for the Cincinnati convoy. It's got addresses, directions, phone numbers, etc for the trip. I've got email addresses for most of you but there's a few I'm missing, I'll shoot you a pm on here.

If you have any questions please let me know!!

WOO WOO! Getting closer!!!

[Stretch]

Just added info on the convoy to the first post. Repeated here:

***Updated Info for the Convoy***

*Note: I moved the meeting location to the south side of Cincinnati to be more convenient. In the original plan, some people would have been back tracking, which is no good.

Meeting Location: Chipotle, 525 Buttermilk Pike, Crescent Springs, KY 41017
Meeting Time: 1pm
Meeting Date: Thursday, May 29th

I am preparing a pdf file to send to everyone so you have all the addresses, routes, phone numbers, radio info, etc for the trip. If I sent you a message to get your email address please send it back! That pdf file will go out in the next few days (writing this updated post 5/11/14).

Did you mean OH for that chipotle?

Did you mean OH for that chipotle?

I meant Kentucky, for sure.

So originally I was thinking that we would meet on the north side of Cincinnati because it would be near 71 & 75 so we could catch multiple groups of people. I started looking at the map closer this weekend to put together the final details and realized that the original northern Cincy idea was pretty far out of the way for the crew driving in from Indianapolis. So, I found a new meetings spot today that is SOUTH of the border in Kentucky. Sorry for the confusion, just seemed like we should not have people back tracking.

So, to confirm again, the new meeting spot is SOUTH of the river in KENTUCKY. It's about 8 miles south of the river I think, right off 71/75. So people coming from any direction will have to drive right past it.

No problem Bob. Better to ask now instead of the day of

We are meeting at 1pm at Chipotle. Then eating lunch. Then leaving as a group. I'm thinking we can be gone within an hour. Also, there is gas right next to Chipotle so we can get full tanks there as well.

Appears me and Fargo (Akron/Canton) will be joining up for a pre mini convoy from the Grove City OH area around 10:30-11:00 to then head to KY. If anyone else is interested. We'll even waive the Venzano Viper interior requirement.

Isnt that gonna out you guys in at chipotle at around 230? Im leaving cleveland around 8. 4 1/2 hour drive for me to the meeting point

[Stretch]

Google says Grove City to Chipotle is a 1 hour and 40 minute drive. Should put them there about 12:30-1pm.

Andy, can you post the location you are meeting at? I think there will be some interest to join and head to Chipotle together.

Gotcha.

[BadAndy]

Sure! I could do Chipolte, but just to be different... McDonalds! Grove City, exit 100 off of 71. Assuming you'll be coming from the North and exiting driving South, exit 100 and turn right (Stringtown Rd.) McDonalds is just ahead on the left about 2/10th's of a mile (turn at the light). There is a big lot in the back for trucks, etc. Probably back there somewhere. Let me know if someone wants to join us. Let's say 10:30-10:45 am. Hit the road to KY at 11:00

McDonald's, 1989 Stringtown Rd, Grove City, OH 43123

We're only a week and a half away from the convoy. I've emailed the directions to everyone that's planning to join. If you didn't get it LET ME KNOW!

In the last week we've picked up a couple more cars. The list is at about 20 now I think. Cannot wait!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sure that would be great. Send me your email address and I can forward the convoy info. We will be stopping for gas in Lexington so you are welcome to meet us there so you don't have to back track.

[turbo355]

Hey that sounds good Lexington would work just fine, my email is h1050d@yahoo.com.

Thanks Tony
