Wisconsin Dells Cruise/Car Show Sat. May 16th

Greetings all;

I will be hosting a car cruise/meet (very informal) on Saturday May 16th. We will be meeting at 9:00am in Baraboo Wisconsin. The location will be at McDonalds on Hwy 12 across from Gander MTN. I have done this with the maxima.org people 4 times before.

The intent of this day is to meet from 9:00am until approx. 9:30am and then we will begin a cruise that will take about 1.5 – 2hrs through various local back roads. We will end up in Wisconsin Dells at a pre-determined location and continue with the meet and/or perhaps go to the car show etc. Route details to follow.

On this weekend, for those who haven’t done this with us before, there is a car show in the Dells on this weekend and usually 1200-1500 cars tend to show up. There are also many cars that are there not for the “Show” but just to be there. I have been going to this car show for the last 10+ years or so and it gets bigger nearly every year. It ends up being a great time.

This will be the 5th cruise.

All are welcome and all car types are welcome. This is not car specific. I would like all to know that this is a cruise at a “reasonable pace”…not a time for high speed racing and other nonsense.

Thank you, Brian

For the cruise it's usually no more than 6-9 cars. Frankly that's the right amount of cars. Anymore and people will be left too far behind, or get lost in the backroads.


For the car show in the Dells there are hundreds of cars that show, and many more people. It's a great time...we carve up some roads, and then watch some sweet rides. Just make sure you have good working brakes, performance oriented tires, and some hunger for curves......

Brian, any idea how many people are in right now?
I'm thinking of inviting a few people but don't want to make it too big.

Well...I have run the route today and all of the roads are in good shape...no surprises. I will have maps printed out and the routes highlighted for everyone. Monday or Tuesday I will make all of the copies. If anyone has any questions please feel free to ask.

Thank you,

Excellent...I take it that rain is not going to be an issue up there.
We're currently experiencing some storms

Rain should NOT be an issue. Just some scattered until midnight...then clear.
