Found an Awesome Road
Might work good for a daytime rally.
Man, wandered INa nd got lost with the lady last tnie and let me tell u South IN 49 is an awesome 2 lane road to go flying down.
I can see 20 of us or so rolling down it in daylit eiwht radar detectors on and just flying.
Nice 2 lane freshly paved country backwoods road, couple of small towns along the way and nice broad curves for high speed.
I enjoyed it immensely except for the fact it was dark and the bugs were huge lol.
Anyone interested in ahving a thirdgen rally out that way?
MAybe make it a beach cruise afterwards?
Its about 30 min east of me so figure about 1hr 20 or 30 for the Schaumburg area folk.
Seems like it would work good for us, nice pavement, low traffic and fun road

So how many people do we have in?
If I set something up for maybe a early-ish Sunday morning for no traffice and either hit somewhere for lunch or head to the beach afterwards?
Sound like something that would work?
