Exclamation Scenic drive this Saturday

Hey guys,

I know this is short notice, but I thought I'd throw this information out there. I am planning a drive with a few cars going from Naperville to Starved Rock. There are many fun and twisty roads with very little traffic and practically no stoplights. The drive is September 12th (this Saturday) with the initial meeting at 9-10am in the Best Buy parking lot on Webber and Boughton Rd in Bolingbrook. From there I plan to take a few main roads to just past Joliet, where after that we will take single-lane roads all the way to Starved Rock. I plan to have maps of the route for people. I took this road myself last week and found the drive to be very fun.

Yuri

Sounded like a cop trap would be inevitible, showing the route and all.

Sorry guys no pics. And the few people that were planning on going ended up flaking out. None-the-less I jumped in the car and went for the drive. I really wasn't worried about cops. I wasn't trying to have a road race, and with most roads being 55mph I was very satisfied with the speed. I would be glad to go on this drive again before the year is over, so if you guys would like, I can organize another drive. However, I don't have a Lexus.
