Default Driving cross country

If anybody wants to meet and have some food, or give advice on accomodation please feel free.

Wed morning I am starting my drive from Greenwich, CT to Los Angeles CA. Due to the southern heat, I chose the norther 1-80 route, which will travel through Chicago, Des Moine and so forth. Then down to Denver/Vegas, and to Los Angeles.

If anybody in any of these areas would like to meet up, let me know.

You should get a bra, because you'll get plenty of rock chips. Or painter's tape.

Get a good forecast report. We've been getting pounded out West with bunch of flash floods.

As long as you are doing the drive you should hit some nice roads along the way. I recomend the UP of Michigan, then you can stop for a burger at the Anchor Bar in Superior, WI.

Notice my location I am FROM La! I make my permanent residence in Los Angeles and San Diego. Both of the So Cal forums know me very well.

I was up here on vacation in Boston (met up with the NE S2000 crew as well), and decided to buy a Lotus while on vacation. So driving it back.

If anyone wants to say along the way, feel free to contact me.

I drove from Boston to LA a year ago. Have fun!

I also replaced my windshield today because of all the rock chips I got from my drive.
