Maple Valley Street Rats have their weekly Cruise-in at the Renton Harley dealership this year.

I'm planning on debuting my Charger tonight!

Ian, website says moved to Wal Mart. 
Guessing Renton 'cuz that is the only Wal Mart I know of on the South end...
Probably not gonna make those, that Wal Mart SUCKS.  Parking sucks, traffic sucks, the shoppers suck.  Wal Mart in general SUCKS too.


HOWEVER, Burien has a small cruise-in on summer Saturdays at 4PM by the library. Good open space.  Got an Irish Pub a block away and a brewhouse another block down... a dozen good restaurants within 2 blocks.  PRIMO space!!

Now watch what you say or they'll be calling you a radical,
      a liberal, oh fanatical, criminal.
Won't you sign up your name, we'd like to feel you're
      acceptable, respectable, oh presentable, a vegetable!

I contacted someone from the Club, they are moving back to the Covington Walmart, where they had held the cruise in the past 2 or 3 years before the HD dealership.  It actually is a nice setup, plenty of parking and it's off to the side of the garden center, so we're separate from the store.  I'm looking forward to it.

We made it down once for Covington, too far for Friday night from Seattle when I worked to 5:30...  Might try again.

Ian, we gotta get you out for Burien too!!

We'll be double checking for sure but the cruise-in is summer Saturdays at 4PM next to the new library. Usually 20 or so cars, kinda small...

Burien Fathers day show is good!!

I don't know their exact policies, but turnout is low in poor weather. Where are you coming from?  Personally, I won't be able to bring the Charger, transmission didn't make it back in, in time. Next week looks dry though!!  May swing by this Friday to check it out.

DONE with this one.

Drove out last night and NO club, just a few cars (10-15). 
Seems the babies can't handle the thought of getting a rain drop on their pristine paint or bald head...   :RantExplode:
