WC to MITM

Post by manxvair »

It appears there might be some interest in a drive from the West Coast "WC" to the Manx in the Middle "MITM event to be held in Collinsville, Illinois 6/22-6/25. Lori Ann & I will be driving our buggy and we would be happy to have some company if anybody else would like to join us. My plan is to depart So-Cal 6/17 or 6/18 and follow the same route we did last year and also on the shuffle to Buffalo. We'll drive through Zion National Park, The Million Dollar Highway and maybe even Pikes Peak. On the return trip a group of club members from the East Coast are going to Moab, Utah for a few days 6/25-7/1 and then we would break off and head back to So-Cal.

If interested please email me manxvair@sbcglobal.net for more info.
