StlHondas Spring '09 Cruise and Meet - 4/25/09 - StlHondas
------------------------------------------------------------------------
*I understand that I'm longwinded, but this is all important information. Please read the entire first post*
Its getting to be that time again. Spork and I decided to put another cruise and meet together again this year but this time we're doing things a lot different.
The first difference is going to be the setup. We've realized that not everyone can make it on time to meets. If we leave at X time, and you show up at Y time, you missed out on everything. To help with this, we're going to meet at a location, then leave immediately for the cruise. The cruise will be about an hour long. Then we will be stopping for the actual meet. We think this will help bring more people out.
Another change is that this will be held on a Saturday, NOT a Sunday. The reason behind this is because most people can't stay out late on Sunday nights (Especially those that live far away) because of work, school, etc. The cruise/meet won't be for another two months, so there is plenty of time to request off. We think this will help the meet last longer and bring out more people as well.
And the last change is going to be the route. We've got something entirely new this time. Not the same old Highway T to Highway 100 to Highway 94 route that we do every year.
Rules:
-Absolutely NO douchebaggery allowed. I will not tolerate people; doing burnouts, drifting, and/or powersliding; revving the piss out of their cars at everyone and/or everything; passing on a shoulder, one lane, or two lane road; attempting to race everyone and/or everything; racing on a road with a sub-40mph speed limit.
-Know the limits of your vehicle. Don't push it harder then you or your vehicle are capable of.
-Respect other peoples belongings. Do not touch other peoples vehicles without permission.
-I know people are going to want to race. Do it in a cautious manner. Be aware of your surroundings. And again, know the limits of your vehicle. There is no need for anyone going to this cruise to be going over 110mph.
If you break one or more of these rules, you will be asked to leave and promptly be made fun of by the entire board.
DETAILS:
Saturday, April 25, 2009
12:00 P.M. - Meet up for cruise at the Highway 141 Commuter Lot off of I-44
12:30 P.M. - Leave Commuter Lot for Cruise
1:30 P.M. Approx. - Meet at the Sonic at Boone's Crossing and Chesterfield Airport Road in Chesterfield Valley for the meet and greet, food, pics, etc.
Saturday the 25th should be a nice day, as long as it doesn't rain. That day has has an average high of 70* and average low of 50*. We will be meeting at the Highway 141 and I-44 Commuter Lot on the West Outer Road. If you're going westbound on I-44, you'll exit at Highway 141 (Exit number 272) and make a right, followed by another right at the first street, and then a left at the stop sign for the West Outer Road. Follow that down a couple thousand feet and you'll see the commuter lot on your left. If you are going Eastbound I-44, exit at Highway 141 (Exit number 272) and make a left, followed by a right at the first street past the Westbound exit ramp. Continue to the first stop sign and make a left onto West Outer Road. Travel a couple thousand feet and you'll see the commuter lot on your left. If you want to show up for the cruise, be there between Noon/12:00 P.M. and 12:29 P.M. We will be leaving for the cruise and head to the meet location promptly at 12:30 P.M.
The cruise route consists of traveling westbound on I-44 to the Six Flags Road/Allenton Road Exit (Exit number 261). Make a right at the exit onto Allenton/Six Flags Road. Make sure to stay in the far left on Allenton Road. The beginning or this road is a little rough, but after a half mile it is freshly repaved. Continue to Melrose Road and make a right. At this point the road becomes a generously wide one lane road, but be on the lookout for oncoming traffic. There won't be many people out there, but again be careful. We will take Melrose to Highway 109 and make a left. Traffic can get kind of heavy here so make sure you know the route in case you get separated. Continue on Highway 109 to Manchester Road and make a left. At the first stop sign, Pond Road, make a right. Continue to Highway 100 and make a left. Follow Highway 100 to Wild Horse Creek Road and make a right. Continue to Centaur Road and make a left. Continue to N Eatherton Road and make a left. Follow that to Chesterfield Airport Road and take a right. Continue through the Valley to the Sonic at Boone's Crossing for the meet. This should put us there about approximately 1:30 P.M.
Feel free to do as you like at the meet, within reason (Please refer to above posted rules). Don't be afraid to talk to people, check out other vehicles, ask questions, etc. Don't be shy. We're all nice people in person.
Remember that this Cruise and Meet is open to the entire board, whether you drive a Honda or not. If you have any questions, feel free to PM Spork or myself or post up in this thread. Thanks for reading and I hope to see a lot of you out there.

Depending on my school schedule (grad school sucks!) I will be in attendance. It would be nice to see more than one Fit there.

Bump for tomorrow!
I am deciding tomorrow morning if I am going or not. I still have 16 or so pages to write before Thursday. Grad school is a bitch.
Anyway, I will post up my own pictures or those of someone else to show what the STL scene looks like.
