Default Caravan from Cincinnati, OH

If anyone is interested in caravaning from Cincinnati OH, 'Lovetodrive2000' and I have formed our usual ride down...feel free to join us! We'll be leaving Cincinnati (at the usual Cincinnati group gathering spot of Hooters on Riverboat Row in Newport) at 8am on Friday, 4/11. This will give us time to get to our destination, grab some lunch, and make some runs on the Dragon before heading to the hotel.

Just respond to this thread if you want to join! See you all in Tennessee!

I thought I was bringin' Skyline Chili...some 3-ways, 4-ways, 5-ways and coneys! Gotta make sure its in some kind of air tight container though so it doesn't smell up my car or ooze grease all over my interior...we can use the 'after-effects' as a type of alternate fuel or booster, kind of like nitro! Look out Dragon!

Hiro, you better hope that the top is down all the way if your packin' Skyline!

Well, might be worse with the top down and the sun beating down on those 5 ways! Those beans and onions would be pretty ripe by the time we got to TN!!

I think I might come with you guys. The only problem is I need to find someone to split a room with to defray the cost a little bit. Hiro, if you are going to be bringing some skyline down, maybe we should give some to the cops around the dragon. No out-of-towner's stomach can handle skyline, so we would be able to run the dragon without having to worry about cops!

I guess I wont be coming. I can't find anyone to split a room with and my budget is kinda tight right now because I am going on another trip in June. Have fun and I hope to see you guys on the 27th.

I am tentatively planning on hooking up with you guys in Cinti Friday morning. Due to Indiana's ass-backwards nature, I've lost an hour which means I'd have to leave at about 4 am to get there by 8, not including morning rush hour traffic. I had considered driving down thursday night but can't justify the extra $75 for a hotel.

Heck, if Hiro will agree, we could always leave a little later.

Our plan is to leave early, check in at the hotel and hit the Dragon before the group gets together.

Let us know what you decide. Would enjoy having another car with us!
