Carbon_One Posted June 2, 2008 #1 Posted June 2, 2008 (edited) Ok folks let's get a heads up here on who's going to Freebirds on Saturday? 1. Who's going to go in the morning and come back that evening? 2. Time & place to meet up for the ride down? I think this will depend on who's going where we meet so I'll hold off on suggesting a location till we see who signs on here. Larry Posted time & location on post #11 Edited June 4, 2008 by Carbon_One

BigD Posted June 4, 2008 #10 Posted June 4, 2008 Hi Larry, Let me know when & where to meet Saturday Morning. See Ya soon.
Carbon_One Posted June 4, 2008 Author #11 Posted June 4, 2008 OK Folks I'll say we meet at the Leon's restaurant on Telegraph road in Taylor. I'll suggest kickstand time up at 8:30 as we're looking at about 2 1/2 hr drive to Freebirds place. Time may or may not change as I'll be looking at weather reports since as of now there's supposed to be a slight chance of morning rain. As we head south the weather should clear up. Time will tell on this. Larry
BigD Posted June 4, 2008 #12 Posted June 4, 2008 Hey Larry, give me an address if you can so I can plug it in to the GPS. See Ya there.
calperin Posted June 4, 2008 #13 Posted June 4, 2008 Big D, Leon is south of I-94 over Telegraph almost 2 blocks. I'm planning to go, so if you come from Walled Lake we can meet around southfield over Telegraph about 8:00 What do you think? Larry, we 'll see you at Leon's 8:30. Carlos
Al Bates Posted June 5, 2008 #14 Posted June 5, 2008 (edited) Leon's 8787 Telegraph Rd Taylor, MI 48180 313-299-0967 http://maps.google.com/maps?hl=en&um=1&ie=UTF-8&q=8787+Telegraph+Rd+Taylor,+MI+48180&fb=1&geocode=13616240500331232301,42.244707,-83.269818&oi=manybox&ct=14&cd=1&resnum=2 http://www.restaurantica.com/restaurants/230641/ Larry I was thinking about taking 75-south to 420-south to 20-south/east to 303-east to Hawley road. This way it's 135 miles. This way cuts out most of the freeway. What do you think. Edited June 5, 2008 by Al Bates

If we get a late start then might be best to hit the e-way to make up time. Looked at the route on my MS map program. It's almost a straight shot to Don's once you get off 2-80 Larry
MiCarl Posted June 5, 2008 #16 Posted June 5, 2008 Hey SE Michigan crew. I'm planning to bug out at 7:00PM sharp Friday. If anyone wants to join up give me a holler. I'll try and come back with you guys Saturday.

Gary N. Posted June 5, 2008 #18 Posted June 5, 2008 Shut, I didn't knew we have anothe Carl here.... Now we have MiCarl, MarCarl and Carlos... :rotf: They say bad things come in threes. Or is that good things come in threes? Never could keep that straight.
calperin Posted June 5, 2008 #19 Posted June 5, 2008 Well, Let's see what is going on with the three togheter... Who knows????
star4772 Posted June 5, 2008 #20 Posted June 5, 2008 OK Larry Leon's at 8:30am unless you change things up see you all then. Joe
star4772 Posted June 5, 2008 #21 Posted June 5, 2008 Weather. According to the weather on channel 4 about 15 min. ago they said slight chance of rain,scattered on sat. evening could be a good day after all. Woopieeeeeeeeeeeeeee

This way cuts out most of the freeway. What do you think. It's been a long time since I took 20 (I'm from originally from Akron) but if I recall correctly a lot of it is divided highway. It's not limited access though so you have 55mph with cross traffic and lights. The occasional hay wagon..... If you like twisties drop a bit south and take 18. It still follows the old property lines in some places. **EDIT** My bad. Strike 18. It runs with 20 on that side of the state. Edited June 6, 2008 by MiCarl
