Official AMVIV8 Thursday Caravan Thread

Postby Louie B. » Sun Apr 10, 2011 3:45 pm

Who's going up Thursday, May 19?
What time are you heading up?
where do you want to meet up to caravan together?

I've been looking at the run schedule for the AMVIV Oatman run and if they run it as planned, they will be coming down through laughlin and hitting Oatman about 10:30, then heading east to Kingman, having lunch there at noon, and then heading up the Dam route.

So a more sensible plan for us would be to just meet them in Kingman and head up the 93 with them, but we miss the fun part of their run.

Sin City MINIs has yet to choose a run leader for this run so I don't have a direct contact yet, once they do I'll find out more info on actual lunch stop location, etc.

Edit: Here's my plan, join me if you'd like...

Meet up at the second Shell Gas Sation in Wickenburg:
530 W Wickenburg Way
Wickenburg, AZ 85390
(the one we usually meet at) At 9:00am. We will be on the road by 9:30 so be gassed up!

Lunch stop will be in Kingman somewhere on Route 66. There we will meet up with with the MINIs that are on their way back from the Oatman run.

I still haven't goten in contact w/ the run leader of the Oatman run to verify exactly where lunch will be so we need to be a little flexible there.

If I do go, I'll be going on Thursday. I'm in the far west valley, so I can leave as early as we'd like. I was thinking wheels on road at either 7:00 or 8:00.

I think 7:00 from your area should get us to Oatman arround 10 if we want to put in the extra miles.

We're shooting to meet up with you. We'll need to leave the Old Pueblo by 5:30 or earlier. Have to ease the better half into that...

Are the stoplights still killer on Grand Ave in Sun City / Surprise?

I don't know exactly which one this is, but I will figure it out! (Mountain Dew in hand) - Will probably be leaving Gilbert area around 7-7:30ish
