Ya, I tried telling the Ci-town boys I didn't want to run over 75 on the way to Detroit last year. That lasted about 5 minutes. I know I hit 85 a couple of times trying to keep up. Of course I think we paid for it later by getting nailed by Detroit traffic moving 10 mph!

It's more that when I roadtrip, I like to be able to deep relax when I drive... and I can't relax like that over 90 mph.

So can someone post a summary on how this caravan thing is going to work out or is it still in the making? I live in the Rochester area and am willing to drive to Des Moines or meet up with people on I-90. I remember some talk about hwy 52 and i-90. There is a sidestreet like .5 mile away where some people might be able to meet. This is pretty much the only part that is going to get me to go to SZ
And to show you that I want to go, I have $75 in my paypal account already.

Anybody? this money will burn a hole in my online pocket if I don't finalize my SZ plans
BTW, I'm still looking for a room. Cheap is good, free is preferred, all I need is a floor.
