Alright everyone, I know this is early to be planning this already, but I want to make sure everyone has a chance to save up some money for this event since its going to cost a bit more. This event will be planned for a Saturday in April and will conclude the following Sunday.

The plan is to leave the Cities Sat morning and cruise up to Duluth via scenic roads. Once in Duluth we'll meet up with the Duluth DSM group, grab some food and cruise some more up the north-shore to Gooseberry Falls and do some hiking/sight-seeing. We'll be getting hotel rooms in Duluth for Sat night (I'll get us a group rate at a good hotel, and I promise it won't be too expensive and it'll include a free breakfast in the morning). We'll of course eat at the famous Anchor Bar over in Superior, WI. We'll party it up in Duluth Sat night, there are a few good bars to check out including Grandmas and DAC/21 North. Yes, college will still be in so expect plenty of hotties! Sunday morning we can check out some more tourist spots and then head on back to the Cities.

I'd love to hear some feedback/input about this event, this year's fall cruise was great, but I want an even larger turnout!

*ALL cars are welcome on this cruise so drive what you have*

Sounds good to me! I like the idea of staying overnight, that would be fun. The roads up there are really nice and curvy! Too bad this is over 4 months away lol.

Yeah this'll be fun guys, I hope everyone can make it. Right now it looks like we can get rooms at a very nice Canal Park hotel (right on Lake Superior and within walking distance to bars/restaurants, the touristy area of Duluth) for about $100; split the room between 2-4 (more if you want) people and its not expensive at all.

For right now, I'm thinking either April 14/15 or 21/22. The weather should be nice and warm by then; great way to kick off the '07 season.

Do they have a Super 8 in the area? LOL? $100 a night is on the high side I think for those who don't want to pull a DSM Shootout event and cram 4 guys in one room. LOL.

I think this would be a hella fun idea though! I'd probably prefer the 14/15 as the 21/22 would be a little too close to the wedding for us, dealing with last minute items in IA.

Someone link me to some good duluth pics so I can get a web page up for the event and plaster it in various areas of the site.

If I can get a motor rebuild between school getting done (first week in may?) and the date of the cruise, I would be down, but I would probably drive from Bemidji over to Duluth and meet you guys there.

There are cheaper hotels such as the Super 8 and Motel 6 that are in the $50 range so I should be able to find something that fits everyone's budget.

We'll plan this for April 14/15 right now so it doesn't interfere with your wedding arrangements.
