I was at Novi's and passed by. Might have been in the back of Walgreens. Do you have fender strakes? IF so it was probably the one I saw.

We should meet up since we are so close.

I do have strakes and that was probably me. Next weekend might be a good time to meet up. I'm sure Adamrotor would be interested too since he's on the north side, short drive away.

Don't know when we'll start yet. Perhaps 6 or a little later. The problem is traffic. We don't get stupid (depending on your definition) on the cruises, especially with traffic, but we do get into a spirited mode. :D As far as how long they last...depends on where we're going. Anyone is free to venture off whenever they please. There are a few regulars who often go at it until we run out of gas $$, the motor blows up or the sun comes back up.

Seriously there have been times when it's gone to 11-12, others 'til 9. I would recommend a later start to avoid the aforementioned traffic. I'll figure out a route, with meeting points in between along with a map to give to everyone that day. It worked well in not having to worry about losing someone. If we did, they at least knew where they were supposed to go. This time around, #'s should be exchanged so in the event of someone needing to contact someone else, it will be possible. I have 4 radios too, but the range is somewhat limited and there's only 4.

Smile Buffalo Grove here

It seems that there are quite a few of us here in BG. Do you guys get together on a regular basis? Let me know, I hardly see any of you guys, the only 8 I saw in the area was a yellow one near Stevenson High School.

From Rockford but it seems most everyone is from around Chicago. Anyone from this neck of the woods?
