You know you can use the iPass in all the lanes whether it's the change/manual or iPass only.

The tolls aren't that much. I imagine we will spend more in gas going around than paying the tolls....

I know you can do iPass in the toll paying lanes. But last year some people stayed on the highway with their iPass and some went into the toll paying lanes and the whole group got separated. I guess that was worse though because of the amount of cars we had going to the same event (that was for the drag racing).

It was just a suggestion, I don't really care which way we take, just thought i'd see if you wanted to save some hassle and driving through Chicago.

Honestly don't even know how many cars are driving with us anyway. So far I only know of Chad, Brett, and myself driving down together. Earlier I thought it would be more.

I would prefer the largest group possible. Haha. Mark have you even talked to Brett lately? He hasn't responded to my texts.

No I haven't talked to Brett in a while. I have to ask Erin if we're meeting up with anyone else on the way as well.

If we did go through Chicago, where would you want to meet us at?

Yeah I'll let you know what our route will be soon. Thinking I'm going to go over to 41 since Brett isn't going now and I'm not sure when Devon and Brad are leaving. Just waiting on info =).

As for what part we're going through. I guess whatever the GPS says lol. I don't go to Chicago too often anymore.

Okay. We'll take 90-290 and then 294 down to 80 and over. We're gonna meet up with Tim somewhere around where 88 and 294 meet. He's gonna find a location that we can stop at to meet him so we're not looking for him in traffic.

If you type in "Stevens Point, WI" to "Indianapolis, IN" on google maps, thats the way I'll be taking. I'll have the GPS too.

Looks like its gonna be Chad, Erin and me (then Tim later on). Not sure if Erin is riding with me or driving yet.

I'll let you know if this plan changes for any reason (in case we meet up with someone else in wisconsin, the IL part will be the same).


Edit: Okay we'll be meeting Tim at Dunkin' Donuts (150 east ogden av, hinsdale, IL 60521) on the way. So if you add that as a second destination on google, thats the way we will go.
