rampelsauce Posted August 13, 2014 Report Share Posted August 13, 2014 So for all of you that have been around long enough, I had a pretty big car meet at my old house and supplied a keg and pizza. It ended in burning a NASCAR tire and a fully inflated tire on a bottle cap, me riding around my lawn mower like an idiot, and a lot of stuff people tell me that happened that I don't remember. Anyhow. The plan is sometime mid-October (date will be decided in early Sept. so you can plan ahead) we'll be throwing a similar meet up at my shop in Port Washington. Sorry, no bonfire this time around. Yes, I have a cruise route plan (tentative) and some great photo op areas. If anyone wants to help me go through these plans, that'd be cool. The event will be free. Free beer, free food, free seeing other BMW people(first come, first served, of course). Donations will be accepted (but not expected) as I will be paying out of pocket. For the good of the community. I learned a lot from the last events we put on, and the more we try to structure stuff the less enjoyable it is. So we'll just plan on a time we'd have food and beers, and a time we're going to go for a cruise. This can be an all day event. I have enough parking available for everyone. I know Port Washington is out of the way for a few of you, but this should be a good time. Plus its a great way to send off the car season with like minded individuals. Input is always welcome! Let me know what you guys think. mkoepp 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YoungCR Posted August 13, 2014 Report Share Posted August 13, 2014 Let's not cut the cruise short for burnouts this time haha Rowleym 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mkoepp Posted August 13, 2014 Report Share Posted August 13, 2014 This sound great! One quick question though. Is there camping there or nearby? Not necessarily for me (if beer is involved maybe ) but some to come from a distance. I am sorry if this is a newbie question as I did not search for info on last years event. This sound like fun. I myself have been known to cruise the grand kids around up north with a trailer on my mower and have had lawnmower and wheel barrel races too! Looking forward to this.

How do you quit drinking beer? 740 Oakland Ave suite something or other. Give me a buzz when you wanna swing through. chatch10 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Full Banana Posted August 17, 2014 Report Share Posted August 17, 2014 In for sure... especially if there's a dyno day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just quit for the last few weeks because I'm training for a marathon. I'm stopping by Aaron's shop tomorrow to meet him and talk about some possible work on my car. I will try to swing through soon. It's nice knowing there is a BMW community up here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patsbimmer1 Posted August 19, 2014 Report Share Posted August 19, 2014 I should be able to come as long as it is not the 23-25. I have to be in Dubuque to help at a Grand Opening. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Dangeraaron29 Posted August 19, 2014 Report Share Posted August 19, 2014 I'm down to clown. My e21 will have suspension (providing as the drop ship from h&r in Germany doesn't take forever) and maybe not exactly where I want it to be, but that's why it's a project car right?!

rampelsauce Posted August 20, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 20, 2014 Who wants to help go over the cruise route/talk about cars/drink beer/talk about the car meet some time soon? Call it a planning party, but not really. I have a few lake-side roads in mind with a couple of great photo op spots on the bluffs over looking beautiful and historic Lake Michigan. Im thinking next weekend if it's nice. Probably try to nail down a date for the actual meet soon too. Im thinking the 11th or the 18th. I'm going to consult my psychic and see which day my aura will be its strongest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
