I'd like to propose a SOUTH BOUND travel group for MVXI. I'm in Grand Rapids Michigan, not the farthest North but darn close to it. I'd love to get a bunch of us Northern Marauders together and run South to the ATL together for MVXI. If you guys and gals are interested lets post spots to meet and roll out in force to the ATL!!!!!

You must be map challenged. ;) Any route from Chicago, Michigan and north of there comes through Indianapolis, Louisville, Nashville and Atlanta. It is unlikely that their paths would even cross unless someone wants to drive 300 miles out of their way.

CAM and Carolina folks will likely link up with the New England, NY and East Coast folks as they head south on I-95/I-85.

Could a rendezvous point for the NE, CAM & Carolina Marauders convoy to MVXI be the Tilted Kilt or Bikinis in Charlotte? :dunno: :rolleyes: :D
(Bikinis is just off I-85 for those that don't know.)

Coming from Eastern PA, my quickest route is I-81 South to I-77 South into Charlotte then getting on I-85 to Atlanta, I would think most of us from the Northeast would go this way. The only other option is I-95 to I-85, but I avoid it at all costs due to congestion and tolls in NYC, Philly, Baltimore, & D.C. corridor.

I was planning on heading from Grand Rapids to Gary Indiana area, picking up a group from Chi Town area (or whomever can meet around there), then south to Indy, on to Louisville, Nashville, Chattanooga, Atl..

People from the East (Ohio or Penn) or from the West (Kansas, Missouri, St Louis) could meet up with us in Louisville.

The run down and back will be just as much fun!

Could be the best route for NE MM.net: Head west to Harrisburg from Philly or North then bomb south. Completely bypasses nastiness in Baltimore/DC. Also less/no photo RADAR would be nice.

I-81/I-77 adds about 30-50 miles for me. Lots of 18 wheelers on I-81 running side by side on hills. Since I am stuck starting the DC Metro area, I'll stick to the I-95/I-85 plan. Was a nice clear ride to Charlotte for MV8. Same same when I made the trip to Fort Benning in 2006 or so. Maybe I'll just take the Auto Train to Florida and link up with the SSM guys coming north. ;)

O.K., I'm taking this thread back to its origins!!!

I'm in West Michigan (Grand Rapids), would like to get a group together to roll to Louisville....meet up with the Chi Town crew and roll South? Date? Times? Locations?

My shop is located right downtown Grand Rapids, 1/4 mile off of the highway, Northern and Western Michigan residents that are headed down would you like to meet here? Lets plan this thing so that it works for all. I figure we could head South towards Kzoo and take 94 towards chi town, that way we pick up those of you coming from the East side....
