Cruises & hangout spots

[Fast One]

Figured I'd start a topic about local cruises & car-guy hangouts. Post your cruises & hangouts, plus pics & vids if you have any!

[Fast One]

Anyone know if the Mon night car deal @ Wagner's is happening yet? Thinking about cruising up there with the GN this evening to see if anyone's hanging out yet this season. And Minnetonka Drive-In opens on the 15th.

Also - I see that the Coon Rapids Blvd cruise is already going! Anyone been there yet this year?

[Fast One]

Just called Wagner's. The Mon nite car gathering hasn't started yet.

[MR.hp]

Wagner's will start when it gets warmer out as I see the cars going down the road every Mon. I know there is the TSI car show in late May. I will ask my buddy if the Coon Rapids cruising is going to happen also this year.

I see Lance and one other at some of the swap meets once in awhile. I think a lot of the car guys sold their rides a few years back and may regret it down the road. What ever happen Re-rod?. Nice to hear form you again smooth.

not sure what happened to a lot of people I used to see around at this point. life got busy for a while there. trying to get back to doing some car things once I get my current house finished up and on the market. this cold weather sure hasn't helped that lately.

Every Thursday it's Minnetonka Drive In. Starting this Thursday. Will probably be a little cool though. It's an older crowd. I guess that's us. lol
Cars and Coffee at Canterbury is interesting. 1st Sat of the month (weather permitting). Gotta get there by 8AM and things start clearing out around 10-11AM though.
UH-OH--sounds like El Loro is done.

[Fast One]

Yeah, I posted pics of the last El Loro gathering last fall. Bummer. There were a lot of cool cars at that one.

Used to go to Mtka nearly every Thurs back in the day. Won't make it tonight (still have to get the quarter-window replaced), but I plan to show up out there more often, since I'm ~25 mi closer than I was when I had my place up in East Bethel. Getting the window done on the 26th. And now the side moldings on the doors are drooping, so I want to get those fixed before I hang out at any of the spots. Gonna take it out for a cruise this afternoon to top-off the batt & keep the juices flowing. Probably cruise Minnehaha pkwy & the lakes.

[Fast One]

Went for a nice 2-hr cruise with the GN. Saw quite a few hotrods out cruising the lakes. Was a nice, relaxing drive.

[Fast One]

Anyone know if the Mon night Wagner's thing is happening yet? Called Wagner's today & the person who answered didn't know if anyone is showing up this evening.

[Z28SSMAN]

Found out they're no longer having Cars and Coffee at Canterbury. They say it's moved to Southdale??? How's that supposed to work? Edina cops will bust you for even chirping a tire

[Fast One]

That sucks! I can't imagine having a hotrod car get-together in Edina. Unless they have special permission from the Edina police dept...

[Fast One]

Anyone going to show up at the Coon Rapids blvd cruise tomorrow? Looks like great wx! I plan to show up with the GN.

[Fast One]

Anyone been to Beach's in Long Lake or Kisch Oil in Maple Grove for race gas lately? Was thinking about treating the GN to a tank of 100 or 110 before heading to the CRB cruise later this afternoon.
