ok where are we meeting up? lets pic a spot, I am 4 minute drive from Joliet, so I will double check and find the exact location of route 66 on wednesday night. Just need to know what day, cause I dont think I would be able to do both days...

as soon as I know what day, I can come up with a few meet point suggestions..since I know most of the traffic areas.

I am definately going. Who's all meeting up??

 
Rep Power: 0

well I guess in order to do pre-meet, need to know how many northwesterners there are and how many from the south, if they want to meet too?

suggestion: a central location would be at Hooters in Downers Grove
its right off I-355 for all you northerners and jsut off I-88 for those on
border....cough cough... homer
