Hope this is ok in the general population now? What is your favorite cruise night or annual cruise in Minnesota or the area. Seem like we have lot of them here. I like Anoka and had a lot of fun at the Waconia Nickle Dickle days until it rained Back to the 50's is a given
Anoka is my favorite,The Barnum car show is good- eazy going small town, Hastings cruise night was great along the river. And the best show of the year Pair A Dice cruiser car show Aug 8th in the Delano city park. jim h

always serious news and views from MM ... he has it right don't ferget it! ANOKA IS TO GO TO BI WEEKLY? OR SOMETHING OTHER THAN WEEKLY .. ITS NICE AND CLOSE FOR US AND IS A NICE PLACE TO SEE THE GANG.... SEEMS THE DOLLARS BROUGHT INTO THE AREA EACH WEEK WAS NOT WHAT THE CITY COUNCIL WANTED ...OR WAS IT THE SUBMARINE RACES .... DAMN HOT RODDERS AND SPECTATORS ,VENDORS SOME COUNCIL NEWS IS PENDING .. SAME BAT TIME SAME BAT CHANNEL
There's a lot of great shows and cruising in Minnesota as long as the weather prevails! Two of my favorites are Beldinville car show and swap in Ellsworth Wisconsin, and Wings and Wheels in Osceola Wisconsin. Beldinville is a nice small town event located 40 min. east of the Twin Cities in a farming community. There's a lot of home grown cars and a nice swap, and has been going on for years. Wings and Wheels is put on by Classic Motors Books and is totally free. Dash plagues, trophies, music, 1000+ cars, plane shows, train rides, discounted books, is only a part of what goes on there on the late fall Saturday afternoon. From the Twin Cities it's about an hour drive up the St. Croix River. I'ld say, if ya never made it there, put it on your calander, it's a must see! Both shows have web site! Btt50's and Porky's are a blast! See ya there!
Crookston MN was memorable cruise, lots of lightning and rain and drove the roadster!!!, but they got a clubhouse, friendly people and more did BTT50s first time and will be back stuck in the frozen lake at NW MN eugene
Porky's is always fun, but can be a mixed crowd. Hastings is really nice. Minnetonka Drive In can be fun. First Thursday at Dulono's is a gas (bikes).
Here's a link to the Minnetonka drive in http://www.yourlocalfood.com/Southwest_Sbs/Minnetonka_drive_in/Hot_Rod_pages.htm
Bloomington Kennedy High School will have a car show May, 9,2009 from 10-2 in the school parking lot. 9701 Nicollet Av So Everything is welcome. We will show our 1935 pickup project and 67 Caprice. Questions? call 952-681-6917 Thanks, Bill Johnson
Dulono's Pizza 1/2 block east of Lyndale on Lake Street. 1ST Thursday of each month. Good weather 4-500 bikes, all kinds.
I had some kids in a Honda ricer try to race my 40 Merc a few blocks from Porky's a few years ago. You never know about those lil boogers power wise. They revved it way up and took off. I just did an easy launch and motored past em. All noise and bluster.
hehe I gotta say, the riceboys don't bug me near as much as the crotch rockets. That said, the scooter crowd is hysterical when they show up as a group.
I used to be onea the crotch rocket/scooter guys. Guess I still am. Just don't have a ridible bike right now. Some of those guys are pretty gonzo.. I'm more into the Harley phase now. Still like the fast too. The new sport bikes are pretty wicked. I rode a buddies Buell and was pretty amazed at the handling
I'm gonna be in the cities this weekend- any cool events goin' on? Is Anoka up and running yet? Thanks much
The only event I know of this weekend. Not a bad swap meet. http://www.gopherstatebuick.org/ there is a bunch of use that meet at the 5-8 club Champlian Mn at 8:00am saturday for breakfast , if you want to join us. Anoka starts May 16th. hope that helps jim h
The thread did say "Minnesota" and not "twin cities" correct? So how about a trip to the great white North for a neat little show and a great party afterwards? June 13. All Hambers welcome! Here's the thread from last year's show: http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=271044
