    I think the only thing you are late on registering for is the cruise?

    Says the show registration isn't open yet, and it's just a paper to fill out for auto-x?

    Would there be a spot in the cruise for a long term VW/AUDI gearhead who has recently turned to the dark side (BMW)?

    Are there any more specific details where is the starting point of the cruise and actual route that we will be taking? I think it would be very helpful if the cruise organizers post a route link to google maps and some approximate times.

    Thanks in advance!

    Cruise email went out today to everyone that registered, if you're not seeing it after making sure it didn't get filtered as spam, hit cruise@midwesttreffen.com with an email.

    There's a sizable wait list at the moment for the cruise. You can still register for it, but I'm not sure that 23+ people are going to drop out of the cruise between now and Friday.

    I did get the email. Too bad I did not register early enough. I live right next to Montrose Harbor. Might roll around to see what's up and take some photos.
