Default Iowa Cruise

Would anyone be up for having an F-Body cruise? I know the weather is shitty right now but maybe we can get something planned for this spring. I'm hoping to have my car back by then. I remember reading about a similar event that took place in Des Moines last summer and it sounded like a pretty good time. Question is..... when, where... please chime in with any suggestions!

Sounds like a good deal. Hell just like a get together and cruise to a local car hangout every couple weeks would be neat. Get to know people better that way. Or a get together and cruise on down to Eddyville.

Contact Josh & see if he can help ya organize something again this year.
Member "joshp14"

This is an old site he had started to help get the event out there.
http://www.midwestfbodymeet.com/
It worked out pretty well for a few years, then there was minimal sign-up for 2007, & had to cancel it for lack of interest.

I'm only about 10 miles away from Eddyville. Having a pack of fast GM cars in the area would be a great change from all the fart can Mexican cars in Ottumwa. Did I mention I hate Ottumwa? This would be pretty sweet if we get this organized.

Well if you guys want I can arrange something again. Last summer we got together, grilled out and had a bonfire. Other years we have got together and done a cruise...but I'm up for anything! Heres a pic a buddy took from the bbq/bonfire we had a few months back. There were 15-20 cars.

Maybe we could do a cruise up to saylorville and grill out there?? Just throwing out another idea.....

Ottumwa is full of them turds. I was there couple weeks ago visiting family as I'm originally from Albia, couldn't believe the turds floating around in that town especially around campus making a buzz. I had the GTP at the time obviously but I sure wish I had the other.
