    I know it is too late to change it now, but for next year....

    Why didn't we use the movie theater off 52, first exit south of 494. Figure we are meeting and leaving before 9am...that place would have been deserted. The lot is huge, right off the freeway, and easy to find. Just a thought.

    I think the northmost meeting point is going to be at Ray's grocery store at 7:30 am.

    @ RichWRX

    yeah either meet with the people up in blaine or just come on down. you have it easy, just take 35E down through the cities and it can drop you onto 52 (left exit at downtown saint paul) and then exit 52 at concord.....

    wow your whole trip approaches 400 miles for ONE WAY

    What's up with the difference between the two starting locations?

    The .pdf that Joel posted has the WalMart starting point at a different location from what Google Maps shows for 9165 Cahill Ave.

    Google maps is wrong, it's just showing Cahill Ave. I don't think it knows where 9165 is.

    Someone posted an aerial view of the walmart, so I just chose the intersection closest to that.

    Is that the Kerasotes one ? That's actually not a bad idea. There's even a petrol station right there for people to fill up at if they forgot to do it beforehand.

    Well my girlfriend has decided to back out and "spend time with her family" probably banging other guys, anyways...I have an extra spot which I've already paid for...so if anyone wants to go, doesn't want to drive, doesn't mind riding in a slow Evo, and hasn't paid yet, let me know! :D

    Just a heads up to everyone. My buddy is going to be driving his Mazda 6 down and taking video for us. He will not be meeting us at the wal-mart but he will be on the bridge at the link below taking video. Once the last car goes through and he gets back on we will NEED to let him work his way through the pack so he can get to the next spot he wants to shoot video from which will be when we turn off hwy 52 onto hwy 60 east. Thanks for the cooperation on getting some good video footage.

    My car is really dirty right now. I am having trouble deciding when to take it out of the parking ramp to wash it real quick and then put it back. I am worried it will rain as soon as I dry it because that is how my life works...

    well as long as we travel staggered we'll be able to just zip up into one lane for him and let him through right? and just unzip behind him? if he tapes that it'd prolly look really cool too
