Midwest Mazdafest Caravan - NE Ohio - Come Join Us

[jem0473]

Our central location to meet everyone is gonna be in Columbus. We will now have a second meet location in Dayton due to the interest. If you are driving on Friday and would like to join the caravan then please post up. If you are unable to join the caravan, don't worry cuz on Saturday we will be having a group carwash/detail before the fun begins. If your car looks fantastic already then just come and hang out so we go to the event in one big possy LOL If not, then we will see you there. Looking forward to this great event!

If you have a two-way radio, please bring it! Walmart sells them for $10/15. They come in handy if we lose someone or if we just want to have fun

Post up if you are game to meet at either meet point so I know who I'm accounting for. I will PM everyone on this caravan my cell number just in case someone is gonna be late. Text/call and my name is Jess.

if you do two meet points, i can probably meet up in dayton if i leave early enough.

+1

I'll be coming from SW OH and even though it'd be shorter for me to take I-74W to Indy I'd be willing to take the drive up to Dayton first to meet up and caravan.

EDIT: I fail at reading comprehension. I won't be leaving until Saturday morning so you guys will be long gone by the time I'm heading out.

 

[speedracer]

I so want to go to this!!!
some of us from west MI might be travelin down there too.

 

[jem0473]

All are welcome to join! Some of the people caravanning in this group are from Pittsburgh and Detroit

We're eating lunch in Columbus and the heading to Dayton. We'll probably be leaving Columbus by 4pm and then hitting up Dayton somewhere around the timeframe of 5:30pm or so. Like I said, I'll post more info as soon as I get it squared away but so far that looks to be the plan

Also, we are planning a group pizza and beer on Friday night along with some video games and cards at the hotel listed below. This is where most of us are lodging.

Quality Inn and Suites
4345 Southport Crossing Way
Indianapolis, IN 46237

Once I get things finalized then I will need a Confirmation of who is going so I can PM my cell # just in case and so we don't leave anyone behind if they are alittle late.

When are you planning on leaving?

 

[turpro]

When are you planning on leaving?

I was planning on about 8-9am. Be there around 11. Figured I'd slap some shine on the pro and ride.

hey jon, when you drive from va to ohio.. do you take us-35? i'm trying to see if it would be easier and faster to just stay on the interstate. also are the roads bad? coilovers + bad roads = headaches lol.

I don't think I've ever taken that route, but then again using US-35 is probably the more direct way to get to Indy. It looks like you'll be taking US-35 up to I-70, which is about 30 minutes north of me. I'll actually be taking the southern approach going I-74.

 

[J_Naoto]

i finally booked my hotel! you can add me to the caravan from the second meeting point.

Nice! I'll add ya to the list

 

[magnumP5]

I won't be riding in with you guys on Friday but I am going to try to make it to the car wash Saturday morning. I say "try" because it will involve me leaving Cinci at 6 AM >.<

 

[DeanSweet]

I'm down with that if you are okay with me taggin along? Always good to have a few along with you in case of issues. I wake up before 5m everyday so 6a isn't an issue plus less traffic!

Have you heard from Turpro?

 

[flipmz3drvr]

8 days till the Caravan. 9 days till Mazdafest

 

[jem0473]

There are two meet points so there should be no confusion.

There are unfortunately some people that cannot make the event now and are obviously not caravanning anymore. I figure we can still keep both meet points and use the 2nd stop for a bathroom break/stretch legs if nothing else since it's on the way.

I know lextal is planning on the second meet point but 3 others (CrashTECH, Taters, Chupacabra) are not going to the Fest and one (fc nuts) is now driving on Saturday instead of Friday.

I will update the post to reflect the people caravanning.
