Congrats on the baby. Now all you have to do is get him triangular toys - subliminal education.

Anyone know where in Saylorville we're meeting up?

If no one's come up with anything else, I propose the gas station at the end of the mile-long bridge.

Here's the map (It's the intersection closest to marker B).

It's the corner right in the center south of Polk City. The intersection of W Bridge rd. ad S 3rd street. There's a Casey's or Kum & Go, can't remember which, and it's pretty central to the Saylorville area.

I'm not 100% sure if i can make it. I want to go but for some reason I have that feeling like I'm forgetting about something that I was supposed to do. If I can't figure it out, I'm there. 10ish?

Hey, I'm going to be around this weekend, so I'm showing up. I propose we meet up at the gas station around 1pm. We'll head out probably at 1:20 or so. We'll pick up any stragglers along the way. I don't know if we ever finalized a plan, though. I propose we meet up at the station, then drive over to Sonic or one of the other places on Merle Hay to grab somethnig to eat, talk, check out cars and whatnot. Then we can go for a drive around Saylorville. I don't now any particularly wonderful roads, but we can bum around.

I'll be at the gas station before 1 on a silver Yamaha R6. I'll be in the silver helmet and black jacket. My cell number is 515-991-4066 if someone needs to call me. If I don't answer, I might be riding and I'll call you back.

Well it's a good thing i checked my work schedule just now or else i wouldn't have realized that it's the 18 TODAY. I thought it was tomorrow for some reason.

So i take it we're just meeting up at 1 at the gas station? Sorry if anyone went to Saylorville. I'm an idiot!!!

1pm at the gas station by Saylorville. I've got the map in a link a few posts back. It's the gas station half a mile south of Polk City. My number is in that same post. I'm gonna take off soon and try to be there a bit early.

Dont worry I think I was the only one that showed up at 10. I sat there for about 15 min and didnt see anyone else so I left. Maybe next time I will check the thread before I leave instead of after.

Not a big deal though because my girlfriends dad lives just on the west side of the mile long bridge kind of by Jester Park and thats where I was staying for the weekend. I would still have showed up at 1 but I had a birthday party to be at in Ames at 2. Sorry

I'm still up for another try in may.

Cool to meet you guys that did show up. Sorry that I ducked out early - my girlfriend was getting cold on the back of the bike. And yeah, we need to plan a meet for sometime warm, and way ahead of time. How about 12pm on May 10 at the Sonic on Merle Hay?
