Ohio River Run July 30th

[gahammerle]

For those interested in a leisurely cruise along the Ohio River, the Scroungers Car Club is organizing an event on July 30. Here the details from their site:

I made my way over there tonight to find a meeting spot for people coming from the north.
This is our route: Ky guys and anyone that is coming from south of the Ohio River will meet at UDF next to I-275.

Cars should be gassed up and ready to leave at 3:00 from this UDF
Address: UDF #160
1135 Steffen Lane
Wilder, Kentucky 41076
859-441-5040

We will leave UDF at 3:00 and head east on I-275 and across the Ohio River. We will be taking the first Ohio exit. Kellogg Ave, Exit 72. We will go east(RIGHT) off the exit. We will pass Coney Island and River Bend before stopping to pick up the Ohio guys. The Ohio guys meeting spot is AJ's Road House. It's on the right. If you pass a Marathon Gas Station you went too far.

We should be pulling in around 3:30 at this address. Please be gassed up and ready to roll before we get there. There is a gas station across and up the street a few 100 feet.
Address: AJ'S Roadhouse
6735 Kellogg Road
Cincinnati, OH 45230

Ky guys will roll into the parking lot and this will be our first stop. We will meet up and say hello to whoever shows up before heading on down the river. The next stop will be played buy ear. If we see something cool we will stop. If we don't we will go on towards Higginsport to the ferry to Augusta, Ky. Don't eat before the trip or while you are waiting for everyone. We will stop in Augusta for some pizza.

Map Quest the address or put them in your GPS. We have had trouble before trying to get everyone on the same page. Fact is with the amount of cars that go on these runs we can't keep track of everyone. If you get a red light or if someone stops for a rest room break the cars to the front will not see you. When you turn off the cars behind you will follow you. Do your best to catch back up when you are done. We will not be breaking any speed records. If you get left behind we will not be hard to catch up to. We are not taking any side roads. Follow the river and you will see us. Cross the Ferry into Augusta and we will be there before heading back down the Ky side of the river on Rt 8. End of the cruise is in Silver Grove, Ky at the Dari Bar. You can't miss it.

If you want to go, let us know in this thread so we know to keep an eye out for you. I'll keep this 1st post updated with the list of names.

I am in, tell me when and where to show up. I assume we are meeting at AJ's Roadhouse, or are we going to meet down the road and roll in as a group?

Great! I think your car will fit in nicely with the Scroungers tagline:
Scaring babies and little old ladies with open headers since 1964

[Tantalizer43]

Bad news, have a family obligation that day.

Good news, it's in Maysville KY so I could easily meet you all at the pizza stop in Augusta and partake in the rest of the festivities!

I usually take the Augusta ferry coming from KY anyway...

Thanks Gordy. You bringing the camera? I better get going on my cam install, weekend will be here before I know it.

[gahammerle]

I do plan to bring the camera.

Only one week to go.

Since this says leisurely and the Leprechaun said the same thing, what should I believe?

[gahammerle]

Some people define leisurely differently.
