Sunday night is a "school night", so I expect the gang will be tea-sippers, nobody being carried out, no traditional Fast n Sexy girls this time (unless Pete puts on that hot pink tu-tu again), but pizza at Home Run Inn would be about 10 minutes from Marc's.

Should we call an "emergency meeting" at Home Run Pizza????:dancing

P.

What!?!? No fast n sexy girls :.(

Re: Chicago Bound

Playing with MapQuest.... what is the best way to get to Sioux Falls from Addison? Are the toll roads worth it or should I avoid them?

Total Miles and Hours......
561 mi, 8 hours 15 mins

I-90 W

Once at Sioux Falls...stay on I-90 west....all the way to Rapid City. Stop at Wall Drug on the way. I think speed limit is 75 mph all the way with light traffic.

Once near Rapid City....take exit 57 to Highway 16 off to left and get a picture of that Z with Mount Rushmore in background ;)
It is only a few miles to Mount Rushmore off of I-90.

The most direct route by car is via Interstate - 90, exiting on exit 57 to Highway 16 (also called mount Rushmore Road) which goes directly Keystone. From Keystone take Highway 244 to the Mount Rushmore Memorial entrance. From Rapid City, go southwest on Highway 16 for 23 miles. You can get free state highway maps from the South Dakota Department of Tourism by calling (605) 773-3301 or (800) 732-5682

I need to drop a block off at Pete's around 5pm, and pick up a radiator, and we'll head over to the HRI for pizza, brews, BS, and good fun.

Well that depends on what you are looking to do. If you want to get somewhere fast, take the toll road. Rt. 20 OTOH will take you to Rockford but more picturesque and twisty.

Re: Chicago Bound

Keep in mind the Sturgis Bikers will be out in full swing Aug 5th - August 11th with many returning on I-90 (east and west) around August 11th.

Sturgis is just a few miles North on I-90 from Rapid City (top of map).
