*** & Broad is far for me too. Which isn't to say I wouldn't go. Just less often.

and West Chester is closer?

anyway timed it yesterday on the way home
from the WCC parking lot to where 288 dumps out on to Patterson is a solid 12 minutes at +5
then Patterson to my house at +5 mph with medium traffic at the lights was around 9 minutes give or take 30 seconds
so roughly 20 minutes minimum to get to WCC

I don't think many people will be coming out this Friday with the way the weather is shaping up.
Hope it doesn't kill Saturday morning's C&C Richmond .

I have this bouncing idle and ultimately stall on my 1991 T2 and I'm 84.3% sure it's a vacuum leak but I can't find it ><

Anyone with experience trying to help me out this weekend?

I'll provide beer and pay for lunch
I'm in glen allen.

Wish I had heard about the Starbucks meets earlier. I'm in that side of town all day but on the other at night. Would be easy to grab dinner after work and head there had I known ahead of time.


I'll have to check it out next time hopefully.
