Woo hoo! Another Illinois meet. I'm counting myself as a "maybe". My vote was for July 11.

[cl94]

I'll put myself down as "interested", but waaaaaaaaaaay too early to say if I'd be able to make it.

[SSOWorld]

The only thing preventing me from going is personal stuff (like work or family)

[cjk374]

Hmmmm.....very interesting. (spoken in the voice of Wolfgang the German soldier from "Martin & Rowan'Rowan's Laugh In.")

Hate to say this, but I'm not committed to this meet thanks to the Coronavirus. I'll see y'all at the OBX meet this year.

[signalman]

I'm interested as well.  I voted for the early June dates only because I'd prefer to travel before most of the kids get out of school.  However, in all honesty, it's too far out for me to say whether I could definitely attend or not.

[Duke87]

I'll be able to tell you what weekends in June 2020 I am or am not available when it's May 2020.

[Hot Rod Hootenanny]

June 13 is Chicago's Blues Festival. I dunno is that would make me more likely to attend your meet, or less likely.

[inkyatari]

Too soon to commit to a date.  I need to look to see when Bike MS for next year is.

[jpi]

I voted for the June dates, may be able to tie it in with a St Louis area toy show on Sunday like I have done before with past Illinois meets

Well, I finally made a decision, based on an event I have in early June (not sure which of the two Saturdays yet), my June work schedule, and the proximity to Tim's Cincy meet. I'd like to have some time between that one and mine for those (like me) who'd like to go to both.  Therefore, the meet will be June 27.

I was actually hoping it would be the week after Cincy.  I was going to incorporate the two into a mega Midwest trip.  Oh well.  That being said, I plan to attend both as it stands right now.

I will be there!

If the Lincoln Highway convention is on the same schedule as a few years ago, this will be great. If not, despite only being two hours away, I may not be able to make it.

I had someone tell me that the LHA convention would be in Illinois and at the end of June. That said, there is nothing on the Lincoln Highway website, nor has any dates (or locations) been mentioned on the LHA's Facebook group.

Bike MS in St. Charles is that weekend, so I won't be able to attend.

[jpi]

Will definetly keep this on my radar, at this point I have nothing going on that weekend

[Highway63]

Asked via e-mail, was told Joliet LHA conference is June 22-25 - Monday through Thursday.  So I suppose I'll be finding a couple museums to hit in Chicago on Friday.

[jpi]

I know its been a while since anyone posted on here, so the date for this is June 27? If so I think I can still make this one.

Yes.  I still have put together the itinerary.

Cool, just need to secure my lodging, I may do a 4 day weekend and tie in a US 30 clinch and some new counties in Iowa

[codyg1985]

I am keeping this on my radar in case COVID dies down and my wife doesn't have to work.

1. Uh oh, this is spreading like wildfire.
2. Better stay away from strangers and #FlattenTheCurve.
3. It works. Curve flattens.
4. Welp this whole social distancing thing is silly. Let's #openup the economy.
5. ... goto step 1

(from Facebook)  - hopefully the meet begins at step 4.

I'm at step 4 (except for my fear of entering buildings).

There's not gonna be a step 5.
