I see Matt hahaha....

Looks like you guys had fun. And nice photos guys.

**JET** · 04-15-2007

Yeah, that was a blast! Luckily the weather was awesome the whole time. Next year we might have to do it a bit later so it is better top down weather! Going through the tunnels was sweet, i had the top down and everyone was doing pulls. it sounded like a real life Gran Turismo game!

Hell yeah! I love ripping through the tunnels, especially with the top down!

Looked like alot of fun, cool pics...I love the Mazda next to the big chicken.

Even though I didn't have my car, I had a blast. Next time we have a cruise, I'll definatly have to bring mine with.

**Kracka** · 04-15-2007

I'm looking at routes/areas for the next cruise! Does everyone want to make a weekend of it again and spend the night in a hotel again?

Yes, otherwise it is FAR too much driving in one day.

A//// Guy · 04-15-2007

Yea spending the night was fun, next time we make sure people have their ID's with them!!! haha No paper print outs in the future. lol

**JET** · 04-15-2007

Yeah, it definitely needs to be overnight if it is going to be up in D town again.

I was planning on a different area so people don't get bored and always see new things. If we did a repeat, I wouldn't mind shooting down to Winona again; there are a lot of great backroads down in that area over on the WI side of the river. Input is welcome though!

What about a trip out West? Or NW Minnesnowta? Might be a cool idea for a good weather camping weekend as well? Actually, a big ground for a campsite and drinking and shit by the fire sounds awesome.

As much as I like camping, driving for a few hours without showering that day, especially in the summer, is not fun.

**JET** · 04-15-2007

We make that run on the bikes pretty often, that can be done in a day without needing to stay overnight. Lots of fun roads, but not much 4 lane for comparing cars

**Kracka** · 04-15-2007

I was looking at the Minnesota River Valley, but my concerns are no major cities along that route except for Mankato and we won't be encountering many large highways for "comparing".

**scheides** · 04-15-2007

Yea, ex-nay on the camping IMHO. Anna would for sure not come as she insists on being pampered like a princess (as would the other girls I think).

**Halon** · 04-16-2007

Good times! I finally got on the internet now. Scheides so did Aaron beat you? Looked like I was just edging you out now like you said. My wideband showed me running extremely rich, like around 10.5 on e85. I need to get this thing tuned ASAP. Anywho, ya Beth and I had a great time. I have some nice burns on my hands from my incident in the Menards parking lot. But hey, it wouldn't have been a DSM event if there weren't a couple car problems! Sorry I made us leave a little late, but I'd say we got it fixed quickly.

I have a couple pictures but I'm not very good at pictures. I'll put them up sometime.

TheBlizzard · 04-16-2007

Sounds like everyone had a great time. Sorry I couldn't make it, but I had a work dinner I had to attend with some representitives from a company we do buisness with.

Thats awesome there wasn't any major car problems as well. I assumed there would be a story of a tranny swap in the hotel parking lot.

We had our share of car problems

One car got left in the Menards parking lot because it wouldn't start, one car threw up coolant all over the Menards parking lot but was fixed in time, one car wouldn't start during a rest stop but then was able to fire up, and one car needed to get a new battery.

At least all car's made it home running by the end of Sunday and no major damage occurred!

had a great time so did Aly. She took an ton of pics and a few video of us all driving on 23 as soon as she has them all ready I will get them up. You got to love the look on people when they look twice when they dont see a driver in the left side of the car sence Aly is short and you cant see her.

Yeah, this view says it all:
