what hotel is the host hotel? i live on that side of town and can help you out. I also have friday off, so give me a ring when you get into town if you need anything.

319.939.2035 - Levi

as for tickets, for the past 3 years i've only had to pay for one or two family / friends to get in. that's the beauty of having a truck. unfortunately, the truck i have this year doesn't have a bed floor. (but it might by this weekend)

Thanks Levi, looking forward to seeing you and the 50 again. 8:00 pm in the hotel parkin lot for a cold one?

BTW, in the hotel tonight we stayed at for the Nat's (next to the KC airport)

re: car wash

i've never really looked for one over there, but this seems to be the closed non automated car wash:

Here

Here's another option here

I wouldn't suggest finding one down by the fair grounds as I'm sure they will be packed.

I decided I'm not going to camp. I think I'll want to go home and take a shower each night. I'm guessing it'll be a very busy weekend.

Going to have anything to keep the sun out of your eyes while driving the '50?

IvelDesigns · 06-30-2010, 09:08 PM

Ray is taking his RV there tomorrow morning when he registers, and will let me know what spot so that when i go in the afternoon to register, i can setup my tents to hold a couple spots. I'll post the # on here when he gets me the #

jce4isu · 07-01-2010, 12:07 AM

the wing ding bike show got all the good spots if you are using a tent i will set up as well around noon

IvelDesigns · 07-01-2010, 02:17 PM

ok, Ray (Indian133) has his RV parked in Area 11, Row 8 and said there is a good amount of space around him. That is outside of the main area.

We'll see when i get there, but I may try to get a spot inside of the main campground as there isn't much for shade other than some small trees in the area he's at.

IvelDesigns · 07-01-2010, 05:31 PM

The kids and I are setup and campin. Stop by and say hi.

As far as I know right now I'll be up in the morning. Whenever I can get my butt in gear. I'll give you a call when I get there....

Art said he was going to bring his Blue/White truck up so you might keep your eye out for it.

Running through Iowa today, seen tons of cool classic cars and trucks om I-80 heading to Des Moines, I was wondering what was going on. Wish I had more time to check it out.

IvelDesigns · 07-02-2010, 09:48 AM

Don't forget about the 9000 Gold Wings in town too.

jce4isu · 07-02-2010, 04:08 PM
