Cruise down to Clocks Off / BCM Show

[Josepy]

For those of you coming for breakfast. Try and get there a little before 8:30. So we can get in and out somewhat quickly in case they are busy.

Car Cruise will start at the Truck stop at hwy41 and 167 at 9:00am We will be eating breakfast here for whoever shows up.
2900 Wisconsin 167
Richfield, WI 53076

The cruise from Richfield is leaving at 9am.

I would say we will be at Miller Park by 930-945.

Leaving Miller Park no later than 10am.

Stopping at College Ave park and ride between 1020-1030.

These times should be pretty close, and put us at COR around 1115.

Here is where we will meet at Miller Park.

These are rough times so make sure you are there a little ahead.


Give me some ideas on what you guys want to do. I figure others who want to join we can pick you up along the way down to racine. I have no clue on what way to take there so any ideas would be great.

[nismodave]

Maybe a Stop at Park and Ride at Rawson?

[0TransAm0]

take I94 south get off on hwy 20 and go east. easiest way to get there.
whatever you do if you get off before that don't try and take hwy 38/howell because it is closed for a good 4 miles and they have a crappy detour. if i wasn't going to be out of town i would love to go or even have a meet up at my place(have tons of parking) and then head down but i wont be here so have fun,be safe.

[Josepy]

We can stop wherever. I do not know the areas well at all down there.

[Bobby "Big Daddy" Flay]

i'm in

[michelle]

Good idea!

[1320PNY]

I will make it for breakfast. Hwy 20 is a good straight shot East/West. We just head South to 20 and cut across on 20.

I will have a seat open if anyone isn't able to take their own vehicle.

[Yooformula]

you taking 45 down past me Joe?

[Josepy]

you taking 45 down past me Joe?

I think so. Dave can confirm it for sure. Or meet us for break fast. LIke 10 minutes from you.

[nismodave]

Ryan Rd or College Ave? Say 10-1030?

[lilws6]

I'll be rocking 20 straight down if i have off i'm hoping i do get off for this i asked like last week :)

[HP ADDICT]

Ill meet in the Milw area!

[stealthy1ss]

Ron's place is about 2 blocks off of 20 and really easy to get to. I can meet up with people somewhere on 20 since I am coming from the west.

[Beagle]

If you guys meet up in Oak Creek somewhere Im down to cruise down with everyone.

[03CVLX]

Well, I offered to help Ron with setup and cleanup if he needed it. If for some reason im not needed in the morning, I will meet up with you guys somewhere for sure.

[WhatsADSM]

Ill meet in the Milw area!

x2 Keep us posted if you meet somewhere in Milwaukee.

Maybe miller park? That's right off of 94 and pretty centrally located in Milwaukee. Otherwise maybe a park and ride off 94 on the south side of Milwaukee?

[TheRX7Project]

maybe a stop at park and ride at rawson?

miller park works for me. not sure other then college or ryan where any other park and rides are. i think there might be one on loomis by the old turf skatepark.

[team beater]

Count me in at 9 in richfield will be in a red vette :)

There is a park and ride on 76th street on the north east corner of the state fair grounds. This would probably the best place to meet in milw. If so I would probably meet here opposed to richfield.

[nismodave]

I think Rawson or College rd. Whichever has the least construction going on by it.

Miller Park is a bit off the path.

Poll added.

45 south to 94E? Wouldn't that go right past miller park, it would be like a 30 second detour... what am I missing?

We just usually avoid going through downtown if we can. We usually take 894 around to avoid it.

[WhatsADSM]

Ahh 894... no love for us North(East)/Central guys. Yea if you are going that way then no way there is a central milwaukee location.

I'd be down for college ave then.

We got love 4 all the areas around. :thumbsup

[team beater]

why don't we work in 2 stops, its a cruise not a race.
My suggested route would be
1. Start in richfied
2. Stop at 76 or Miller park park and ride(sat morning means no traffic through downtown)
3. Stop at Ryan or college (I think Ryan has less construction)
4. Clocks off

This way we have convenient pick up points for members in the north, central, and the south.
Just my .02

should be a blast regardless, The more cars the better :)

[Dr.Buick]

Dam No car here it will be there already

You make an Excellent point. :thumbsup

[03CVLX]

Just a little side note. The entire College avenue Overpass, ramps and park and ride lot are brand new. Just finished that last fall. It will probably be the best bet. I am not sure if Ryan Road is scheduled to be torn up this summer or not.

[LIZMO]

idk if were gonna attend the cruise... cuz my tranny doesnt shift into overdrive so therefore going 60mph is like @ 4grand... which makes everything run hot. so if the new tranny isn't in by then, well prob take side streets n meet u guys down there :)

[Plum Crazy]

I wish i didnt have to work, i live 2 miles west of there.

[Beagle]

Ryan Road has no construsction what so ever and they finished up college ave as well. Which way do you plan on going after the second stop?

[nismodave]

Most likely this route is we go to Miller park stop. Otherwise 894. Unless its a bad way off freeway.

Bah I didn't look that close at map.

[team beater]

^dave,
Can I make a suggestion?
Route above looks good, but instead of taking 41 all the way to 94 we can take 41 to 45 to 94. This would keep us on the freeway the entire time. 41 turns into fondulac ave and runs as a city street from Hampton Ave until north then you merge back into the freeway. On a map taking 41-45-94, appears longer but its time saved with no traffic, traffic lights, and smoother roads.

Thats what dave means. We would not run 41 the whole way.

I'm sorry I didn't look at map close enough last night. The route will be on the freeway past state fair. Too much bourbon too late last night lol:goof

[team beater]

Gotcha :thumbsup

P.S. FWIW count in another vote for miller park, i voted last night for college before the miller park option was available

[03CVLX]

[BlackLightning]

Where's the planned meet spot at Miller Park?

[team beater]

^x2, Miller park is pretty big:)

[JohnnyT]

Who's gonna let me ride/hang out of their car to take rolling shots on the way down??? :)

[Z28Envy]

If I decide to go you can hang out of my car John.

[team beater]

^ i would but i dont think the wife would like being left in Miller Park's parking lot to much.

[RanJer]

Who's gonna let me ride/hang out of their car to take rolling shots on the way down??? :)

You could ride on the back of my bike.. but you'd have to face backwards..


^ i would but i dont think the wife would like being left in Miller Park's parking lot to much.

She can jump on the back of my, or Jeanna's bike for the rest of the ride down? lol

I think you should take the Columbia though..

[Josepy]

Who's gonna let me ride/hang out of their car to take rolling shots on the way down??? :)

I should have room also possibly

[JohnnyT]

Ok... I will decide the day of.... :)

See you all there!!!

[HP ADDICT]

Might have a open seat johnny if the gf stays home.

[IcePickFreak]

If not, I'm riding solo in a 4 door so I have plenty of room.

[nismodave]

Where's the planned meet spot at Miller Park?

[TheRX7Project]

If you're coming from the west: Exit at the Miller Park exit on the LEFT and at the end of the ramp, turn right. Follow the road, veering to the left at the wye, and meet at the 3-way intersection.

If you're coming from the east: Exit at Miller Park (308 A) and turn LEFT at the end of the off ramp. Then meet at the 3-way intersection.

If you're coming down 41: Merge onto 94 W then follow the "from the east" directions

If you're coming from the south: Exit Miller Park Way (43rd st.) to Canal St, and turn left at Canal St. Canal turns into "Brewers Way" and follow that around the park and parking lot towards the NW, meet at the 3-way intersection.

EDIT: I also should have room in the 'Dere

[Josepy]

For anyone that is just looking at this thread and is going to meet us at one of the stops. Please just vote on which one so we know who to look for.

[IcePickFreak]

I went with College Ave P&R since it's close, but I'll probably get bored and drive over to Miller Park earlier.

[03CVLX]

Well, I still don't know if I am needed to help setup in the morning. I Pm'd Ron to find out. If I am not getting there early I will be at College ave around 1015

[team beater]

Just an FYI to the group, I will be at Miller park more than likely in the DD opposed to the Vette. See you then, hope the weather is happy!

[lilws6]

i can do miller park i'll be alone in my ride as well.

[95-1LE-Z28]

I voted to meet up at miller park but my plans have changed. My right front strut popped out of the mount this morning and the guys at the shop couldn't get a replacement today. They'll finish it up tomorrow morning so i'll drive by myself to Racine sometime in the afternoon. Hopefully i'll still be able to get in touch with some BCM members when i get there.

[nismodave]

we will be meeting at the southwest park and ride at college!

[97z2801ss]

I will be at miller park I am bringing the little one to his first real car show, he will be up early so I am not worried about getting htere at 9:45, infact just talked to randy aswell should be a good time, first time out crusing with u BCMers since the lake front cruise way back in the day.

[1320PNY]

My plans have changed. I am headed to breakfast and then riding down as far as Miller Park. At 10 AM I have to head home. Have to leave for CO on Sunday at 3:30 AM and have to create a presentation before I leave as well as do the husband stuff that I do on Sundays. :(

[HP ADDICT]

Tony give me a call around 9 to make sure I am up. Text Freeman to so that woman gets his car out.

[97z2801ss]

Yea I'm not setting an alarm vinnie will be upand Adam at like 7 he has been all week so I'll call you.

[lilws6]

Pending wen I'm done with the car ill try and shoot for miller park other wise ill try to catch up to you guys on 20 since that's closest to me

[scaleracer]

I should be meeting at College or just heading out there.
