    Why don't we just make a rule that anyone that gets the group busted because they were speeding/racing will be blacklisted from future events.

    I could also use these locations, as my buddy is planning on scooting ahead of the crowd to take some video for us.

    Josh said one is the exit ramp/bridge at Coates. I think he said one more spot, but I don't remember where, exit ramp with a curve/hill maybe.

    If the weather gets bad, I might look to head down as a passenger with someone. There is no way I will ride 5 hours in the rain, even with the right gear.

    I already talked to Bill about this, but his wife is going with, so I'd be in the back. I'm totally cool with riding in the back, however, I'm 6'1'' and backseats never agree with my knees. So if someone doesnt want to ride solo and wants a co-pilot in the event of poor weather, let me know!

    If the weather is nice, I'll be on the bike! Any other riders going?

    Not skipping all of the riverside driving... The route to me looks like a combination of scenic driving and highway driving so the trip doesn't take too long and we can make it there in time for lunch.

    6'1" is a a bit big for our small back seats. but that crapped ride would be better then a good walk, or a wet ride... Let me know if you still need a ride, either way is cool...

    Instead of going through DT La Crosse, I can lead the way through the French Island exit. Less stop lights and easier to stay together.

    Trust me this is a really good idea. Other wise everyone will get lost between all the lights and there is construction in lacresent.

    But won't it look funny ? Kind of like a rampaging horde of Subies hunting down a lone Evo ?

    Yeah, but it's easier than having 5 separate groups of people getting lost :)

    I'm from La Crosse, so I know my way around.

    I'm working on printing up some maps to hand out saturday morning. Can someone come up with a Simplified turn-by-turn set of directions for getting to the location? Just major highways and then streets to take once we get there. And maybe a final destination address. I'll get it layedout tonight and then print up copies tomorrow.

    thank you

    Here is the way we are talking about. Only one set of stop lights if we go this way...compared to 4-5 if we go through downtown.

    It's French Island Exit #2.
    Take a right off the exit (B) Dawson Ave
    Dawson Ave becomes Bainbridge St.
    Take a left at Clinton St. (You will see the area we're meeting when you come to the stoplight)
    Right (heading south) on Copeland.
    Right on St. Cloud St.
    Follow St. Cloud St. to the meeting area. (It will take you around the park)

    on the way down 52, are we actually going through zumbrota, or are we going 52, to 60? The reason I ask is the 52 to 60 will be a great spot for my buddy to video the cars...

    Yes, I know. That's just the highways, the final destination on there is just "la crosse, wi" Google didn't know where "Copeland park" was, so I'll do it by intersections and get it close, and then just photochop a zoomed photo like you posted and put that as an insert on the map.
