Cruise to the Woods
Would be great to see some other rotaries, especially 7's at this year's Cruise to the Woods. For those not familiar, there are six or eight cruise "legs" that come from all corners of Iowa, northern Missouri and southern Minnesota. All converge (after 2 or 3 "rest stops" to collect more cars) on Ft. Dodge Ia...roughly in the middle of the state. Total number from all legs is usually around 1500-1800. I've gone for the last 4 yrs. Just something about being in a line of 200-300 really cool cars going down the highway on a nice early fall day. Cars include something for everyone's taste, but I'd sure like to see more 7's this year. ---->

No takers so far Jim? I have not seen too many 7's running around Omaha anymore. Where is everyone at?
|
I think they're out there. Present company excepted I don't think many locals come on this forum. I posted hoping to get the attention of some owners from near those other cruise legs...including northern Missouri and southern Minnesota.
You going Rick? LS3 in yet? Should have called you. Sorry. Brother and I are going and staying the night in Ft. Dodge doing that "old guy thing" killing a good cigar and a few cold ones. Another guy from my work with a LE1 is a maybe. |
Wish this is closer to Chicago :(
|
It would be great to put a face with the name Henry. It's only what....3 hours from you? I'll have an extra cigar. ;)
|
how far into MN does this go? I may be able to bring our new family member out to play.

Thanks for the offer tho, I'll see what I can do, it is on my b-day tho so the wife might have other plan. |
Yeah, just recently drove to Geneva and back and it seems like it was ~ 7 hrs with normal stops from Omaha. And Des Moines/Ft. Dodge is about 2 hours away. But just in case remember...picking up one of the cruise legs is much closer. :)

Looks like two legs originate in MN...from Fairmont or Albert Lea |
I see what you mean now, Davenport is about 2 hrs away from me.

Thanks for the map Jim. Yeah, I don't trust the new one to make that trek and back just yet. I need a few hundred miles to work out some nuances. Just work up an S4 that has been parked and sleeping for 20 years.

Another guy from my work with a LE1 is a maybe. I can see the fun in the "old guy thing". I think the spectators on the corner enjoy the cruise more than the drivers. |
Figured I'd bump this, we're only about 3 weeks out. Hope to see some of you guys there.
|
Any picture/video from the cruise?
|
Nah, I'm not very camera friendly from either side. The only thing I have is a couple of pictures still on my phone. And I got a FB message about this picture they take of everyone as they enter the event center....

Ahh, car looks really clean tho :icon_tup:
I'm liking that Efini emblem more and more. |
Figured I'd bump up this thread for this year's cruise in hopes of seeing some other rotaries. 2015 Cruise Flyer Page 1 - WC Cruisers

Jim, are you going up the night before this year? I should be up and running again in a week or two.
|
Yeah Rick. My brother and I, along with a friend Terrence with the yellow 1LE are going. Probably stay the night, have some dinner, kill a beer or two and drive back the next day.
