Saturday July 11th 2009 - PureMB.com Goes To White Castle!

[discoduck]

POSTPONED TO JULY 11TH!


Let's cast off a very big event for the year!

[attachment=0:2hx7ftf6]index.jpg[/attachment:2hx7ftf6]

That's right folks, one big convoy to White Castle!

I'll have to re-confirm a date with everyone so stay tuned!

My plan is for us to chow down a couple of Crave Cases:

Then head on over to http://www.greatlakescrossing.com/ Shopping Mall.

Here's a map to White Castle
http://maps.google.ca/maps?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&geocode=&q=4250+Corunna+Rd,+Flint&sll=43.174738,-8.120418&sspn=0.774148,1.785278&ie=UTF8&t=h&z=16


I suggest we leave early, say around 8am so we can hopefully avoid any traffic at the border.

Meeting Time: 8am
Meeting Place: AMC Courtney Park - http://maps.google.ca/maps?f=d&source=s_d&saddr=110+Courtney+Park+Drive+E,+Mississauga,+ON+L 5T+2Y3+(AMC+Courtney+Park+16)&daddr=4250+corunna,+flint&hl=en&geocode=CeWHcCEeCLD9FYzcmQIdcPo_-yEA-nI6-EHcyg%3B&mra=pe&mrcr=0&sll=43.31998,-81.672448&sspn=2.709519,4.943848&ie=UTF8&ll=43.261206,-81.727295&spn=2.712191,4.943848&t=h&z=8

This meeting place close to 401 west so it's pretty much on the way.

I'm going to bring a few FRS radios for us to keep in touch with, but I suggest you bring your own because my batteries suck :)

We'll wait for 30 minutes or so for people to arrive before we head out. Please PM me so I can give you my number so I can keep track of who's on their way.

[discoduck]

I'd like suggestions on what we can do for the day.


Six flags would be good! Is it in Detroit? I have no idea where it is...

[B4TM4N]

I hope Jesse is not reffering to the one in California.

OMG I want to bring back 5 crave cases. Will I get pulled and strip-searched?

so would we be staying the night or eat, shop, then drive back home?

[discoduck]

so would we be staying the night or eat, shop, then drive back home?


I'm thinking eat, shop then maybe eat dinner again somewhere else.. Or we can hit White Castle again :shock:


A few of us can crash a hotel if need be. I'm down if anyone needs to book a hotel! I remember Marko suggesting we also do this.

The hotel thing would be a blast.....especially if we go to the one right next to white castle! ECONO LODGE LOL.

They filmed the movie in Brampton, so if you guys want to get together and visit the actual "White Castle" from the movie it would be a pretty cool weekend get together. they used a small place called "Swift Burger" that they converted into a White Castle, it's located on Hurontario st. north of Mayfield rd. Here's the Address

16544 Hurontario St, Caledon, ON

Oh yeah I knew some was filmed here. I had a buddy who played Harold's stunt double. He was also the asian dude (alternate Harold) you saw walking in the street get beat up.

[Hawk]

I'm sorry Disco, but I can't make this. Couldn't manage the time to have the whole Saturday off :) But you are so the man for arranging this!

Hopefully you guys post lots of pics!

[2GL]

We can meet at the border eddie

[Benzonline Marko]

There is now 50/50 chance I will be able to make this event except they calling (for now) rain on sat

[discoduck]

If it rains then we'll have to postpone to another date :(

[Eddie_Jai]

oh boo, it wont rain!!! I hope it doesnt..!! if it does, I dont think its going to be like thundering or anything, its probably just drizzle.

Im down to split the cost of an FRS radio with someone as well.

Well its only scattered showers on sat here, and 40% chance of rain in flint.

[msiumng]

damn I just checked it saids 15-20mm of rain on sat......hopefully it will change!

[msiumng]

btw by any chance we are stopping over at prime outlets at birch run and frankenmuth (the little germany)? is like 10 mins from flint lol just thinking maybe I can go shop for some cheap stuff LOL....anyway lets hope is not raining haha I am probably not going to go if is raining is quite a lot of driving in the rain

Sure we can stop by! As long as you know where it is, you're leader :D

Yeah if it's raining too much then we'll have to postpone it :cry:

[discoduck]

Maybe we can postpone to july 11th?

Doesn't look like the 20mm of rain is going away :(

[Eddie_Jai]

aw man I was lookingforwards to this.

well its just scattered showers. Its not going to be that bad. Its kit you'll have to drive with the top up.

although ice heard that if you go fast enough you'll stay dry... I think we should test that thoreylol.

dude whats up with your spelling lol

[SEI]

lol drink a bit too much eddie?

[Eddie_Jai]

ha ha. no im on my mobile. and I have fat fingers. I swear its not because were doing a wine tasting for a menu. lol

[icecube]

although ice heard that if you go fast enough you'll stay dry... I think we should test that thoreylol.

This is true, I have tested the theory lol. No rain comes in top down as long as you stay above 60ish.

[msiumng]

omg now it saids 20-30mm on the weather network....and flint has thunderstorm on sat......damn

[Eddie_Jai]

So I guess its postponed until July 11th then? I moved a bunch of stuff around.

[Benzonline Marko]

Yeah looks like the weather people got a lockdown on the rain situation. If I drove all the rain for that long I wouldn't have any doors left on this rustbucket lol.

lol water will go into my rear tire where my nail is driving that long in the rain and eventually it wll blow up like a waterbed lol

[discoduck]

So it looks like we're not getting away from the rain this time guys.

[broken_arrow]

[Benzonline Marko]

Shoot I got to do an oil change sometime this week! Gottfind the frs radios aswell hopefully they are not at my cottage! Eddie you got me worried about the border crossing with the woofer thingy in the trunk lol the little one I have back there (Infinity Basslink) looks like a little bomb.

Hope to stop at outlet mall aswell for some good American prices! Angelo mentioned a place we should go to but forgot the name now, was German.

[Eddie_Jai]

Yea Im down to go shopping as well, I could use a new pair of runners.

[discoduck]

He mentioned Frankenmuth which is about 6 hours away from where we are.

So I'm assuming another 2 hours to get to the mall. Up to you guys!
