The fastest and easiest way to State Farm is to take I70 to 15N. From 15N take Rt.26 to Monocacy Blvd. (2nd light) and turn left. State Farm will be on your left.

Carney park and ride = I-695, Exit 31B, Maryland 147 (Harford Road) north to Carney. The the P & R is about 2 miles North down Harford Rd on left.

I should be able to make it, get to meet some new people. I should be bringing a cobra along, if that's alright. I do not have work until 5pm. BTW i saw a guy at school (CCBC Catonsville) with a yellow 99-04 mustang with staggered machined rims and chrome lip, with MCOM tags. Any idea who it is?

ichy51 · **Posted:** Mon Oct 17, 2011 10:22 pm

Hope everyone enjoys the cruise, I unfortunately won't be able to make it, I have a softball tourney that day. It's the season ending tourney, which would have been LAST weekend, if it hadn't been for all the rain we've had the last few weeks forcing make-ups for rained out games. This may be my last year of softball, starting to think 27 years of playing is long enough!! If that ends up being the case, my Sundays will be free next year. Somebody please take pics and post so I can see what I missed!! Have fun, good luck and be safe everyone!! God be with you all on your cruise!!

We should be able to make this one. Anyone else coming from the Columbia area? If so, we could meet at the park & ride at Rt. 32 & 70 on the north side of 70.

Glenn and other Columbia/Ellicott City members

I am offering for people to meet at my place in Ellicott City and we can all head on 70 together. I am literally minutes from rt 70 and live off St Johns Lane. If you can figure out how to send me an email directly (I'm not sure how to do it on this web site) I can send you my address.

I'm game for Mt. Airy at 0800!

If anyone has FRS radios, bring them!

I'm hoping to be going on the cruise if I can make some progress with my sciatica. I'm starting physical therapy tomorrow. Right now I'm having a difficult time standing or sitting.

If I can make it I'll be meeting everyone at the Mt. Airy Pizza Hut at 8 am.

Im meeting up with everyone in Mt. Airy at 8. Please bring your 2 way radios if you have them.

Scott,
Do you have any really powerful 2 way radios? I could use them if you can get your hands on 2. One for me and one for the tail end of the group. (This needs to go to the person who wants to drive fast, that way they can play catch up) Regular 2 ways work up to 2 miles away but from past experience this cruise is about 2 miles of stangs.
