A few asked a couple questions about the 29th, so I thought I had better post this again. All the way to the end of this string, Rtaz posted my original post. On there is a link to the Metro Cruise itself - and what you can see and expect from that.

Also, the is a Google map link to the hotel in Grandville, so you can find us. Registration will be from 1pm till 2pm (in the hotel's breakfast lobby) - and we will take off as soon as we can from then.

We have about a 100 mile ride planned, with (4) stops along the way for drawing cards (is your poker hand showing some promise??? - you will have the option of buying a couple extra cards for $5 each - may give you the winning hand ??), as well as stretching, snacks, restrooms, gas, etc. Should be pretty scenic, several lakes we'll be passing or stopping at. Have several nice roads with some sweepers, hills and trees.

Poker Ride itself will have a BEST HAND winner and a WORST HAND winner - these $$ amounts will be determined by how many show up for the ride. I have had a couple more commit to coming, and several more are fairly close to coming - so we'll see.Our local dealer sponsor - Shawmut Hills Sales - are donating a few items for us to raffle off, plus I believe that I have a few others as well. We'll be doing a 50/50 drawing too, so you see, there are HUNDREDS of ways to win (OK, there are a couple - but who's counting anyway).

We have a side room set up for us from 5:30pm till 7pm. This will be for the dinner, awards and prizes, and just plain fun. Expect a few surprizes here. Then after that, feel free to roam just outside - to look and see MANY hot rods & trucks, etc.About 8pm, we'll try to get as many as want to join us, for a VALKYRIE RIDE down the center of 28th Street, with thousands looking on, then we'll drive back to Ground Zero hotel, I'll get you all back safely. Will we hang out for awhile ?? Certainly can.
