99% sure I'll be in the Tesla at this point, can't fix the damn radiator plug leak. I'll be riding solo unless someone wants to ride with me.

Gotcha, sorry to hear you're still struggling with Noble issues! What's the deal this time? I'm apparently not in the loop about your leaky radiator plug.

We'll be stopping for lunch in Askov shortly after passing through Hinckley. How long will you need at the charging station? I'm wondering if we should all stop, or just have you peel off and join back up for lunch a few minutes late.

My radiator didn't come with a plug, and I put a BSP thread one in, but it still drips like every half minute or so. Really slow and probably not a huge deal, but I want it sealed completely before taking a trip that far.

I'm thinking 10-15 mins tops, because I'll have almost 300 miles range to start the morning. That should get me an easy 100 mile boost. I don't mind either way on the stop.

OK sounds good. I'll get to working on finalizing the route and timeline so we figure out what works best.

Re: MitsuStyle Fall 2019 Cruise - September 28/29 - Superior, WI

I've updated the route to now be right around 210 miles and include a better mix of roads. I also moved the meeting time back to 8:30am rather than 8am. Please arrive with a full tank/battery, plan to grab a quick/light breakfast, then we'll pass out map packets and hit the road!

Andrew - You'll have to break off from the group just prior to lunch, then meet up with us at the lunch spot. We'll be hitting an extra set of twisties while you're charging to burn up a little time and in theory arrive to lunch right about the same time you do. I'll coordinate with you so you know where to detour.

Noble is fixed, but rain forecasted this weekend, would not be a fun drive on semi slick tires. So 100% driving the tesla.

When are the southern folks going to be driving through Des Moines area? I could cruise up to the Minnesota border with them where I'll need to stop for a quick charge. There is a C8 at the local dealer starting at noon on Friday, was planning to stop there for a bit and head out after.

Re: MitsuStyle Fall 2019 Cruise - September 28/29 - Superior, WI

At this point I think it'll only be Andrew + family coming up in his Evo IX, but they'll be leaving TX Weds evening and arriving in MN sometime Thursday.

There is a group meeting at Surly on Friday at 6:30pm for dinner and drinks, if anyone wants to join us. I'll probably be there until 9ish.

Re: MitsuStyle Fall 2019 Cruise - September 28/29 - Superior, WI

That sounds fun! It's not likely we'll be there in time, but if anything changes I'll let you guys know. I plan to take a half-day, but my wife is TBD at this point. Otherwise, see everyone by 8:30am on Saturday!

Andrew - There is a Tesla charging station not too far away from the meeting point.
