It's at Classic BMW at Spring Creek at the Tollway.  See some cool cars, drink some free coffee, meet some cool people!

Hmmm, sounds  interesting.  Let's try to get a Duc group over there.  Do they have motorcycle-specific parking or do we just have to get there early?

I'm going to stop reading the threads about this event. It's obvious I am not meant to attend and my life is being controlled by forces of the dark side. Apparently fall baseball league is now in cahoots with the dark side and have torpedoed my Saturdays for several more weeks. [bang] Have fun and I will live vicariously through the pictures! [thumbsup] [Dolph] [coffee]

LOL  I'll have to make sure to take more photos this time! 

I think it's a 'first come, first served' kind of set up... But I read some of the forum posts last night, and it seems some groups can/have requested sections set up on occasion to accomodate clubs and such.  I'll shoot Classic BMW an email and see what happens.

Last time I went, I just parked next to the Maseratis and Ferraris.  I think my little Hyper and I brought down the property values a bit...  [cheeky]

I'm more of an 'idea' kinda guy...  ;)

Whatever works for you guys!  My in-laws are going to be here the whole weekend, so I'm cool to meet as early as y'all want.   [thumbsup]

Since this thing is from 8 - noon, let's try and be there around 9:30 or 10 (it'll give us westies a chance to be at least half awake!)  

Is there a nearby gas station where everyone could pre-meet so that we can all cruise in together?  Have our Ducs in a row you know  ;D

I know we'll have Alan B, lawmaster891, and me heading that way from the westside - anyone else that wants to join us is welcome, just send me a PM and I'll send you directions to my house.

Sounds good!  I need to give the guy at Classic a call to see where our spots are, and I'll pass it on once I do.  (Today is going to be insane at work...)  There are a couple of gas stations nearby: Kroger's station is pretty nice and about a mile south on the south-bound side of the tollway, and there is an Exxon (might be a Texaco now) on the north-bound side of the tollway at Windhaven.

 [thumbsup]

If you prefer Shell gas station, it's at SW corner of Plano Pkwy @ Dallas North Tollway, due South of Classic BMW.

Yeah, the three of us were going to be cruising east on the 121 tollway, then south on Windhaven over to the car show so maybe we all could meet at the Texaco (or whatever it is!) at the intersection of Windhaven and the North Dallas tollway at 9:45-ish?   ;D

i dont know if mirrors are absolutley required but in ohio i rode my yamaha around for 6 months with no mirrors or license plate light and never got in trouble. that six months even included riding from ohio to west virginia. while in west virginia i was followed by a cop for a good 10 ten miles and still wasnt pulled over though it made me nervous and curious since i didnt have mirrors

Take them both off your hands for $1,000 each.  Seems fair for such an issue.... [evil]
