Floridians unite!

I always see people in SoCal or Norcal meeting up, chilling out, all that jazz. Wanted to see what we could do down here in Sunny FL!

I'm in Central Florida. (Orlando/Winter Park)

You guys?

Id say that we gather up more people.
And then setup a location to meet, Generally in the middle of where everyone is located.
And then setup a date to meet.

But originally live in Tarpon Springs which is 35 miles away from Tampa.
If we get a large enough group id be willing to do the drive.

Orlando would be great, and any time in January sounds absolutely amazing!!! I'll se if any of my friends would be in. Not really the same style, but still car and mod fanatics.

And here is another attempt of Tampa area people trying to get something together. I think in the past 3 years there were 3 attempts very much like this one where it never worked out.

But once again, I'd be up for a meet if I can make it and its not all the way up in orlando.

I'm hoping this won't die off!

Here's a spark.

Saturday (January 30th). Early Afternoon? Meet at a lot, find a nice route to cruise..

EDIT: Maybe cruise on through Oviedo into Black Hammock and try out some gator? Hah!
