<![CDATA[Kettle Moraine Scenic Drive]]>This is now the main thread for the Kettle Moraine Scenic Drive

The route is finalized 

https://www.google.com/maps/d/u/0/edit?mid=1TtxuJ4y-euguXya0QR9UAr0my7E
 

JULY 30TH at 8:00 AM

Start point: St. Jerome Chapel Parking lot very near to Holy Hill. Drive begins at 8:00 AM which means we start driving. 

End point: is McDonald's in Mukwonago because I will be in the mood for a breakfast burrito.This should be 9:00 AM or earlier. If not, we made poor time. 

THIS DRIVE WILL TAKE 1 HOUR (or slightly less)

...and thats a good thing, because BMWs were built for driving enjoyment and if we as BMW enthusiasts arent going out for enjoyable drives then we all have failed and should buy Rav4's and Siennas. 

I am not your father and I am not holding you hostage. Break off and go home whenever you'd like, be a wizard by studying the map route and join up with us somewhere along the way, head towards downtown and hit up the swankiest new gay bar if you really want to. This is a drive, you are succeeding as long as you are driving. If you are driving along the intended route with us then you are kicking ass even harder.

There will be cyclists and joggers potentially along this route. If you hit them, make sure Chris isn't behind you. He will snitch.

Damn it, I get it now.  I was searching that for something posted about the drive.

Should we start a missed connections sub-forum? lol Wish I could've made it, the subframe bushings on the 540i hadn't been replaced yet and I had a few other things on my plate.

All flights were grounded nationwide because my open wastegate sounded like a surface to air missile?

Plausible.

No, there were some weather issues on the east coast, but my specific flight was delayed becasue of a maintenance issue to the plane while it was in Atlanta.  The plus is that it was a direct flight, so no missed connection.

Here are a few pics from this morning for you.  Thanks for letting me tag along as the token female.

I left for Umansky BMW for the Drive for a Cause - donation to Children's Hospital.  Drove the 340i with sport pkg.  Sounded good, handling similar to the e92 other than clipping the brake pedal when I went for the clutch that wasn't there.  Need to kill the nav though, I found it distracting and annoying.

Was nice talking to you Donna, looking forward to seeing you at RA in September. Because of you I'll probably pay dues for PCA next year and pick up some of your track days

Also shout out to Brian for the great driving route. Had a great time!!!

Tom caught a pokemon.

Earl looks like luigi losing control on a sharp corner

We will be setting off at 8:00a. Call /send a text if you are going to be a few minutes late so we can wait up for you. We should arrive in Mukwonago between 8:45-8:50.  

Someone should bring a nice camera for some 2017 calendar shots. This will be an adventure for me as I have never driven some of these roads. This is the sort of thing we buy these cars for so hopefully it will be an enjoyable morning for all.

Now to see if the alternator is the culprit or not. In the meantime, I'll keep the battery tender on it till the cruise on saturday

I'll be there with my shoddily-repaired, snow tire equipped hooptie.
