Title: Chicago area get together
Post by: franknsr on August 07, 2013, 06:51:30 PM

Throwing a date out for Chicago area riders breakfast get together on August 24th. Location will depend on who can make it. Maybe Willowbrook, or Bolingbrook if Mad Dog can make it. Maybe Oakbrook if he can't. ;-)

Hi Frank,
Count me in, hopefully we'll get a few more X'ers to attend.

Put me down as a definite maybe.  I have something else going on that day, but I don't know how early.

I talked to John, he lives around Midway airport and said he's in if his bike is rideable. He has to have a tire repair done. If Aug.24th doesn't work for people how about Sunday Aug. 25th or maybe that could be a rain date?

Hey, tell him to be there even if he has to bring that thing with 4 wheels.
Sunday can work too.
Let me know what you think about 9am at Denny's in Willowbrook. That puts up between Joliet and Midway so it will be equally inconvenient for everyone. ;-)

I like it.  Saturday is better for me than Sunday. 

If you mean the Denny's off of 53 and 55, that's an easy 30 minute ride for me.

My buddy Jim, from IN, looks to be joining us.  He responded on the Resource Board.

Yup, that's the place. I dropped an email to everyone today just to get everyone together...from multiple sites, posts and email accounts.

Hi guys,
Let's make sure we're talking about the same Denny's, there's one on Rte. 83 just north of 55 which is in Willowbrook, the other on Rte.53 is in Bolingbrook, a lot of brooks around there,lol. Either one works for me.

Oh snap, good catch...I was talking about the one at 83 and 55 in Willowbrook, not 53 and 55 in Bolingbrook. Yea, I'm not at all confused. ;-)

John, you ok with Willowbrook?

7737 Kingery Hwy, Willowbrook, IL ‎

BTW Jumper, we are meeting at 9am so if you leave around 9pm Friday you should have plenty of time to make it.

The Willowbrook location is the one I thought of first (even though I typed 53), so I'm good with it!

It was great meeting you guys and I had a good time and learned quite a bit. I guess I have a few more repairs to make but I'm glad I was made aware of them. Hopefully we can do it again!

Yup, good meeting you all. We have to plan a ride or two.

Hell, we had a mini-rally with the 5 Xs all in one spot!

It was good meeting you guys too.

We should plan a ride soon while the weather is still decent!
