Who would be interested and when would be a good day to do it.
I 4 1 would be interested! I'll tell ya tho, trying to get the FBI together at one spot on a certain date is like herding CATS! Pete and I have talked about this a few times, and I think we're in agreement that perhaps the best way is to set up a "standing event" somewhere; e.g., 'every "Z" Saturday (or whatever) of the month we meet at ___ at (some time) for (breakfast or whatever).

As for a one-time (?) event, my suggestion would be to "put it out there" about a month (at least), avoiding holidays, etc, and "bump" it a few times. That way everyone gets a chance to put it on the schedule and keep it clear, arrange a meeting point, and pick a nice route - kind of a "cruise-in", if you will. Just my 2¢ (PM me if you need help setting it up. I'm about 27 miles south of Joliet, so Bloomington is relatively close.)
