Starved Rock to Peoria Run...Sunday, Oct. 9, 2016

[GTBRMC]

The post says Sunday October 9th. I am not sure why you are seeing Saturday. It will be on Sunday October 9, 2016. See you there.

FYI -- The thread headline says Sunday, but the text of your opening post under the group photo from last year's run says, "This year the trip will be scheduled for Saturday October 9, 2016."

Looks like we won't be goining with the group. Have something scheduled that day I forgot about. If weather is bad and group goes another I will try and join.

Unfortunately I'm not going to be able to make it this year. I'm running low on vacation time and since my week starts on Sunday night (3rd shifter) I was going to have to use a day to go. Hope everyone has a great time, and hopefully I'll be there next year. @OperationROL

We will miss you guys. But someone at work today said we might be in for some cold weather in October so who knows what will happen.

Almost there!
Trying to clean out my garage in order to put the boat away after this trip.
Might even take the tower off as i doubt the bimini or tower speakers will be much help really.
Looking forwardto seeing you all!

Anyone interested in video taped drag race on the IL River? We would just have to think through the safety aspect of it.
And how to avoid Asian carp jumping in the boat.

A couple gopros suction cupped here and there may work. I just planned on snapping a photo at my new gps meter working.

We will join the group in Henry. I will be waking up from working nights about the time you guys will be coming through. Look forward to meeting everyone.

@luckie_529

It bums me out that I'm not gonna make it. I'd love to see where my '04 stands next to yours. This sounds like a really fun test session.

 

[buckbuck]

@scot71 Your boat is probably just as fast as mine. Faster than Neils.

@luckie_529 check your pm.

We are still planning on going. Anyone going the night before? Our plan is to spend the night in either Utica or Ottawa..... just trying to decide where. We usually stay in the marinas but they only rent cottages for a "weekend".

 

[Speedling]

We had talked about camping but haven't broken out the camper all year yet, lol!
Anywhere nearby will be fine. I haven't stayed in any of the hotels but i believe starved rocks lodge is pretty nice.

Starved rock has no accomidations for this weekend.

Right now the forecast is sunny and 70 degrees. Can it get any better?
