Arrow March Drive - Shamrock Shuffle

All right, we haven't been north in a while, so I've got a pretty good outline for the March drive ready to go. I need to check a few things to be certain on the exact route, but Chuckanut Drive will definitely be in the mix.

I'm assuming there may be a large number of people planning on being hung over on the 18th but I'd like to know what weekend works best for most of us.

If we're still trying for Sundays, the only ones I have open are the 4th and 25th. The other 2 weekends I'm in classes.

Any Sunday works for me. I've got to be in Vancouver, BC by ~5:30pm on Sunday the 25th but that should be easily doable if we're going to be north anyway.

I can't make the 18th. Robbie and I are going to a hockey game.

I don't know if I will be able to drive that much anyway, though. I still haven't been cleared for regular driving yet.

Well, the 25th is looking pretty popular, which is cool 'cause that'll make it the first drive of Spring.

Sorry to hear that, Anibal. You'll be missed. I guess you'll just have to work your way up to regional so you don't have to worry about that

Sojourner, welcome. I look forward to meeting you.

Thanks for the positive response guys. I am coming over from Wenatchee. I just drove over yesterday, and the passes were great... not even wet.
I am excited to meet some other 8 owners that care about their cars. The few that are over here do not seem to share the same entusiasm that I do.

Return of the Map. I just added a map link to the drive page. It's in the heading right before the directions. It's not ideal, but it does give you a feel for development path the-winding-road is on. Hopefully I'll be able to embed the map right in the page soon. But for now, this will have to work.

Just checked out the map link on your site. Very cool. I like the way it lays it out in sections so you can get precise directions. Keep up the good work!

OK I'm in,

I will be Shotgunning for 05TiGr8Lady, So long as she doesn't come to her sense and realize what 240lbs of dead weight is going to do to the RXs performance.

I figure I could go along in my RX but heck, I've been driving mine and never get to be a passenger so it should be fun.

Besides, I'd like to have a couple face to face words with a couple of you...

Woohoo! You made a public committment, so no bailing on me, or my other friends will pwn you!!!!!!

This could be intimidating... you taught me how to drive my 8, so don't flip me too much sh*t
