    I'm offering myself up as a pair of "boots on the ground" in Indy for any HAMBers making the trip.

    If problems arise- count me as the "I know a guy who might be able to give us a hand" guy. Tuck my cell phone number in your wallet- if you get in a tight spot, give me a call, I'll see what I can do to help. Hell, I even know a good bail bondsman (not professionally, though)

    I'm not affiliated with the show or the club. I'd just hate to see someone have trouble on the way to make the show better and not have help handy. I hope nobody has any trouble, but if they do, I'd hate to see them stranded without help.

    (317) 514-2232 That's my cell, you can call or text. I'm never very far away from it.

    Put me in too. If you have any trouble or need some help you can pm me and I'll see what I can do. I'm just a local that will be attending the Rumble but willing to help anyone out if I can.

    Way cool! Everyone have a safe and uneventful trip.

    I hope nobody has a bit of trouble, but if you do, there's five of us who will try to keep it from ruining the whole weekend.

    And a huge thanks to 40Standard, TommyD, Oldmanolds, and the one who called me with an offer to pitch in. You guys rock.

    There is a lot of construction going on at the 465 and I74 interchange, Crawfordsville Rd is also there. I believe it is closed and would go to 38th Street exit west. Take that past the airport and will turn into Dandy Trail to Crawfordsville Rd (136), turn left and will just down the road on your left. See you there, it should be a great weekend. any problems 317-946-1535

    I got no phone calls or PM's, so I'm assuming nobody had any problems on day one! I saw that the Boogie Van made it in just fine. I missed out on meeting up with him, though.
     
  12. HEY! That's MY special super secret back way into Clermont! :eek: I didn't think anyone else knew about it and now you just blabbed it out there for everybody! Way to go!!! :mad:

    Actually, this is one of the better shortcuts to Crawfordsville Rd., especially if you're coming from the north or east. It's almost as good as my other Suoer Secret Shortcut to Clermont, but I ain't tellin' anybody about that one! :D

    Hope to see you all at the Rumble Saturday! :cool:

    Knuck- since you're coming from the North, go exactly the way Carbon guy said: once you're on the West side of 465, get off on 38th st and go West. It will curve to the left (Heading South) and will change names to Dandy Trail. Keep going South untilo you get to the intersection with 136 (Crawfordsville Rd) and turn left (headed mostly east, but a bit North, too) The show will be on your left. We should be there tomorrow- look for us.

    For anyone coming from the South, you CAN use the 136 exit, but it is a serious clusterfuck. I'd get off at 10th st and go West to Girls School Rd and turn North. That will take you to 136, then turn right and the show will be on your left.
