Courtesy of Mike:

Not seen this mentioned, but everyone traveling via I-65 from the Indiana side to Kentucky will go thru a toll on the new bridge. If you get a transponder from RiverLink, each crossing will be a $2.00 fee versus $4.00 without.

**There is not an option to pay cash!** -Without a transponder, you will be billed (Pay By Mail) for each time you go across the bridge. Period.

For you folks with I-Pass and/or E-ZPass, go here -> https://riverlink.com/ to make sure you are good with your current transponders and how to go about getting one if you choose that route.

Toll cost is based upon vehicle height and number of axles.

If I was a newer member. I would not even know this event was taking place. It's dead. These Lville threads should be bumped 2,3 or 4 times a day. How is a newer member supposed to get any insight about what Lville is or that it's even taking place?

Does anybody know if they are still running the tour buses around Frankfort Ky.? If we're going to Buffalo Trace we might as well go to Rebecca Ruth Candy Co. My 1st Louisville we went to Buffalo Trace and rode the little tour bus across town to the Rebecca Roth Candy Factory. That was the infamous bus incident of Louisville 7 involving Ponyup.

One of favorite memories of Louisville past, was that car show. It was just a cool place with cool cars. To me it's an ideal place for a car show. I've secretly hoped it would make the itinerary every year since.
