    I'll be flying into Tampa for work on Wed Jan 12th and staying at a hotel in Clearwater during the week. Everyone else leaves for home on Friday afternoon but I thought I'd stick around and see if I can get into some car related trouble during the long weekend as I don't fly home till Monday evening.

    So, please fill me in on any car related activities, ie, cruz nights, car shows, area shops, garages, museums, etc., that I shouldn't miss. I'll have a car so distance won't be an issue. I already know abou the cruz nights in Old Town and would use that as a last resort if I didn't find anything else to do.

    Ok Poor Boys, I'm coming to town, lets hang out.:D
     
  2. Cruise night at Quaker Steak and Lube Thursday down here... BIKE night Wednesday (usually about 3000, winter...?), Cruise night up in Spring Hill Thursday night

    Thanks for the info bud. The cruz at Quaker Steak sounds good but I know I won't have any free time till Friday at approx noon, then I've got the rest of the long weekend available.

    Nothing too big that weekend, from what I can tell. Best of the regular shows include Friday eve at Biff Burgers & Buffy's BBQ in St. Pete. www.biffburgers.com
    and a nice show in quaint downtown Dade City, 3 - 8PM, 352-567-3769.
    Mike Kelly's is the place with the list... www.cruisenewsonline.com I'm sure the local Poor Boys can help you, too. Gary

    Thanks for the offer bud but I will probably do Bush Gardens or some other activty that morning/early afternoon and will just drive straight to Glenn's. I've also been invite to tour Vic Piano's place so I need to coordinate a few things therefore I need my car and the freedom to arrive from another location other than Tampa proper. Looking forward to seeing both you and your Ford there. :cool:

    Wow, I've talked to Glenn and have gotten a few hints on the Saturday happenings. I'm really stoked to see all my Florida pals again. Once Glenn finalizes things he'll announce.

    You Florida guys should subscribe to this thread for the latest news.
     
  17. Sounds like your dance card is filled. I spent my life in Clearwater, Fl. and if you get a chance, have one of the guys take you down the beach to the original Crabby Bills in Indian Rocks for seafood.

    Hiya Denise..

    Great to hear your coming to Tampa. I'm right by the airport and it would be great to see you. I think someone already said your schedule is full, but if you have time, I'll make time :)

    Hope to hear from you...

    I'm flying in and out of Tampa Int but staying right near the StPetes/Clearwater Int one. Not sure what your schedule is but are you available for the nickle tour of your garage on that Monday morning?? If you're working what about that Friday early afternoon?? I'm really anxious to see your toys.:cool:

    I've got a must attend awards dinner Thursday evening.:(

    Looks like we might head there Sunday evening after Busch Gardens. Sounds yummy!

    I will patiently wait by my laptop for news :D

    We'll see how things fall out over here on the east coast, but I hope to make it over Saturday. I knew I should have put that swapmeet heater in the roadster this past fall. Maybe there's still time.

    An afternoon at Ted's is like like Christmas, New Years and a birthday all wrapped up into one!

    Assuming the 58 can make the LONG journey, I will be there.

    Denise, I'm highly pissed that I am going to miss seeing you!!
    I'll be right in the middle of a turn around at work and will not have any time off for the next two weeks.
    You have fun while you are down here, and DO NOT bring any cold weather with you.
