    I will actually be in the cities on Sunday, but I'll be with my wife and parents getting back from Frisco, TX. Probably better for you guys anyway, I'll either be an insufferable gloat or inconsolable sob depending on the outcome of the game... GO BISON!!! :D

    11:30am at the Perkins off 494 and France in Edina:

    (Note I originally had the map set to Target. It really is at Perkins)

    Planning to arrive at Lion's Tap in Eden Prairie around 12:15, for those that are not interested in caravaning down:

    http://g.co/maps/hfvr8


    Since my clutch is going out, the cruise will be relatively short and relaxed. Should someone decide they want to do a more involved route after lunch, I can't stop them. ;)

    Just realized I had the map set for Target in Edina as opposed to Perkins. I really meant Perkins, map link updated.

    Indeed. Unfortunately those were roads that I couldn't pull over on. One lane highway w/curb for the lose. :(


    Awesome turnout today though! I was only expecting a handful of people. I didn't take a headcount but I know we had around 16.

    Looking forward to next month!


    Also, if we depart from that location again I think we should move to the parking lot where Circuit City used to be. Much quieter, lots of room...

    Yes great turnout officially I believe it was 12-13 Subies and 16.5 members. The burgers were great and even though the group got split I believe we still got to hit the twisty turns... FUN FUN !!! also want to thank the new members who showed up. Without you all we would see is the same old faces.


    The Blue Door is small and I think it is mostly off street parking... Not sure it is the correct venue for us. I would like to see the next place be out on the east side... So if anyone knows of a great burger place out that way let us know.

    As for Mayslacks... I think we should hold on to this one until the last stop for burgers then we can head over to the double 2 for some hair growth ;) ... Also the motto went something like this... "no one beats Mayslacks meat" then we can go over to the double 2 to have what ever we want done to our meat :blink:

    The nook has seating for like 6... maybe 7 if you squeeze lol. Unless the old place burned down and they expanded... or was that the owners' other business?

    Anyway, keep the ideas coming. They don't have to be hamburger joints either aka boca chica!

    5 guys in woodbury should be opening soon (might even already be open), or even the 5-8 tavern for some jucy lucyes.

    If we want to try something other than Burgers, might I suggest Quang(Vietnamese), Bucca(Italian), Hoban(Korean).

    I think we are trying to keep it themed so burgers for now and other themes will follow.

    5-8 Club sounds good I have had a Matt's Juice Lucie but not a 5-8 Lucie.

    If this is the Consensus I will make contact with them and start to work out a route to cruise.
