I'll TRY to keep this updated here:

The plan for leaving is MEET AT HORNROCKERS (THAT'S ME) LEAVE HORNROCKER'S BETWEEN 8 AND 8:30 AM FOR ES
(Stoney may, or may not be drunk)

dj appears to be heading out alone early - the lone wolf rides again :DD

So we're leaving from Mark's place at 8am?

How about the way back home? You guys leaving Thursday or Friday? Going straight thru or planning a stopover someplace?

Inquiring minds want to know...

We are leaving Round Lake at 6:30 AM, arrive at Horncocker's a bit before 8:00. Assuming we leave at 8:30....
------------------------------------------
Direct route 55 to 44 = 5.5 hours / 357 miles

-or-

55 to 70 to 19 South = 7 hours / 400 miles
add 1.5 doof hours and we could arrive around 5PM
-------------------------------------------------

another 1.5 hours tells you how nice of a ride hwy 19 is!

Toots and I are leaving our house Saturday at 6:00 am. We arn't going to stop at Marks. We are going to head straight down RT59 to I55, thru STL to I44 on to Cuba exit, then MO19 south to Steelville. We will probably stop for a sit down lunch. Plan on getting to Steelville by 2 or 3pm. Take a nap then head out for some BBQ at 5pm. Back to the B&B for cocktail hour.
We do roll 75 plus mph on the big roads.
Probably head home Friday, dependeing on the forcast, and stop in Cuba MO Friday night.

My plans are still up in the air for the ride back. I'm debating stopping in Memphis and stay overnight with my parents since I'm not too far away.

For those leaving from my house - it really is a quick ride to Stateville, and would even allow a quick stop to see Big Tom before he leaves on his adventure.

After Stateville it's just a quick little hop over to I-55.

Just mentioning

We really don't have the time. We are already arriving at the hotel between 5 and 6PM.





The only thing I can think of worse than BBQ, would be sitting at a table with Oprah, eating BBQ... I'll eat a turkey samich or sumptin', don't worry about me.

Is it the sauce or the smoke that ya don't like Jimbo.

I prefer ribs dry rubbed and brisket without sauce or just with a little mop on it.

If it's the smoke ya don't like, you'll never like barbeque.

I don't like tangy messy sauce... just don't like the taste.

Can't argue with that. I don't like most anything green. A salad is ok with enough dressing on it...

Try the ribs dry rubbed or brisket plain. Good stuff really.

I live in the Champaign/Urbana area and would like to ride with you folks for part of the way before I head back. Have to be at work at 3pm Saturday. I am off Friday all day.

I could meet you guys on friday somewhere or meet up before you depart early on Saturday morning, then break off sometime on the road so I can make it back to work on time.


let me know. Would like to participate in some way, shape or form

Stoney is coming to my place on Friday, I'm taking off work early and should be home by noon. Stoney is hoping to be in the area 3/4 PM (or before?) I'm hoping to take him to the 43/7 junction/shrine, and maybe Stateville.

You're more than welcome to come along.

I like dry rub, like at Corky's in Memphis. Though I had Saz's ribs in Milwaukee, with sauce,Sunday, and I didn't throw any under the table. They had chunks of kabasa or polish sausage in the baked beans, good.

Take 19 south from Cuba, MO instead of the direct route. You won't regret it.

Dan,

Since you have GPS I guess I don't need to meet you and lead you in the last couple of miles.

When you pull in the driveway I'll open up the garage. You can park in the middle where my car normally is.

I got the gay porn videos rented as you requested...
