Post here and let us know where you are driving from to get to the 2013 Nationals in Niagara Falls.

If we know where you are coming from and what route you are planning to take, other members can possibly meet en route and travel together.
it's always pretty cool to travel in a pack and even cooler when other drivers see a big row of Avy's making there way down the road!!!

My wife and I will be traveling from Windsor, Ontario (near Detroit)
down the Hwy 401 to Niagara Falls Canada, then crossing over and heading to the hotel on Thursday.

It's about a 4 hr drive for us, (not including time spent at the U.S border getting a full cavity search!  :eek: )

Don't worry if you're American and coming into Canada we welcome everyone (as long as you watch hockey, drink beer and eat bacon!!!)
 
Coming over from Springfield Il. I80 to wherever. Have to route out yet.
 
I'll be coming from Kentucky so I may catch up with Didit and Z66 Butch.

I'll likely catch I90 east of Cleveland from I271.
 
Guess I could catch you folks by Cleveland, getting thru Cincy is the biggest pain.

Heading west on I90 from Cooperstown, NY
 
Hey to the folks who would like to join the CarAVan. If I can swing it, I'll be coming from MN. I may want to meet up with the folks from IL. Then we can join up with the folks in OH and pick up others on the way if we plan this right. Can we start a roll call of the folks who would like to join? Also what are your thoughts on getting 2way radios to communicate along the way?
 
Great I can pick up a set then.

Can we start a roll call for cruising to the Nationals either here or in a new thread.
I'm sure lots of folks need to know to plan their trip beforehand
 
I'm following Loggie's route, but starting in NJ.  I'm planning on meeting up with him in the Stroudsburg PA area around 10AM on the 25th, then we're going to drive the rest of the way (see the map he posted...)

James21 - we may catch you on I-90, depending on where you are when we get to that point....

We are north of Indy and will take I-69 up to Ft Wayne and then over to the toll road. We are leaving home around 10AM and plan on a overnight stay near I-271 & I-80. We are meeting GBT there at 11AM on Thursday for the rest of the trip.

I thought you were going a day early, guess we won't be doing dinner Wed, lol

Didit
 
Detroit/Windsor border to Amherst NY is just about 4 1/2 hrs. We can't leave til 2:30 or 3,
so we are hoping to be there by around 7:30 on Thursday.

It's a pretty straight shot down the 401 then veer off on the 403 towards the Falls.
