Re: Ft Ben Rally

We need to shame g35girl into going. Every time we talk, she says "We'll see..." We all know what it means when a woman says "We'll see". Oy... everyone PM her and call her out on it in public.

Re: Ft Ben Rally

The meet is taking place at Fort Benjamin Harrison State Park in Indianapolis. I will be there about 10 o'clock or so, start coming whenever you want. We will be meeting at either the Cherry Tree picnic area or the Delaware Picnic Area. When you enter the park follow the signs to the proper area. Take the first right and the cherry tree area is on the left, if you go straight you run into the Deleware area. My Red G35 coupe will be parked out there somewhere.

Directions to the park.

From I-65 North of Indy. Take the exit to I-865 which will lead to I-465 East. Take I-465 to exit 40 (56th St.) or exit 42 (Pendelton Pike). There is construction on 465 at 56th St. and I am not sure when the ramps are open. It doesn't really matter which exit you take. When you get off take either 56th or Pendelton Pike east to Post Rd. (about 3 miles, I think). Turn left (North) onto Post Road and follow it all the way to the Park Entrance. The entrance is easily marked and to the left, Post Rd. will come to an end at this point.

From I-69 North of Indy. Take the exit to I-465 south/east and follow the above directions.

From I-70 East of Indy. Take either the Post Rd. exit off of I-70 and go North to the park. Or, go to I-465 north and follow above directions.

From I-74 East of Indy. Exit onto I-465 North/East and follow above directions.

From I-65 South of Indy. Exit onto I-465 East and follow above directions.

I think you all get the point. The park is located on the east/north east side of Indy. It isn't difficult to find. For you out of towners, keep in mind that 465 is a big loop around the entire city and every interstate enters onto it at 2 locations (except for 69).

Here is a link to a map of the park and directions from the 56th St. exit off of 465.

Also don't forget, that there is a $4 fee for state cars and a $5 fee for out-of-state cars.

It is a very nice little park with hiking trails and a couple ponds and lake. The weather looks to be holding up nicely. High in the upper 50's to low 60's and partly sunny. At least that is what I have heard so far.

If you need more directions or want my cell number if you get lost, send me an email at rydw79@aol.com.

I hope to see you all there.

Re: Ft Ben Rally

10am? Wow, that's early for me... I usually wake up around noon [img]/w3timages/icons/smile.gif[/img] I'll be there around then too. PM me your cell-- I put Fort Ben into the navi and it found it right away... says it's a golf course though. Hm. Still, it follows your directions, so all's good. What will determine where we meet-- whichever one's open at the time? See ya there,

Re: Ft Ben Rally

I am sending you the cell number. I am just getting there at 10am to make sure we get a place with enough room. I think most people are coming around 11 or 12. I didn't reserve a shelter because it was $40, but there may be one available. There is plenty of areas around with 4 or 5 picnic tables together though. I think that Cherry Tree has may be better because there is less there, the parking lot may be emptier. Delaware has quite a few picnic spots and hiking trails and the lake, so parking will be tougher to get there I think. We'll see how it is tomorrow.
