Default minnesota hypermiler meeting dec. 22nd

Hello all! Several of us have planned another meet here in MN on Saturday the 22nd starting at 11:00. We welcome hybrid drivers, as well as anyone who is interested in ways to increase fuel economy.

We will be meeting at the Sundance Golf course in Maple grove. You can view the website for this location below:

Sundance Golf and Bowl

The actual location can be seen by clicking the link below:

We will have a special guest there -- our very own Delta Flyer!! He'll be driving his famous Insight and will be giving a presentation about his newest toy -- the Lone Star MIMA.

Xcel is also planning to join us, as well as that mpg sorceress of the north who has been just TEARING up the snow around here -- Laurie with her HCHI equipped with a manual transmission! (please note, i didn't write that description, i simply copied it from what i was given LOL)

We'll also have at least one Prius driver at the meet so anyone who is interested in joining us will have the opportunity to see 3 fascinating examples of hybrid engineering.

The meet will consist of discussion of vehicles, driving techniques, current and future FE technologies, and driver training on request. Food will be available at the bar and grill on location, so you'll be able to munch while taking in all the great camaraderie and drawing on the considerable array of expertise that you'll find in attendance!

We welcome any and all participants regardless of your experience level!

I work just 2 hours from you! And I would love to be there in my souped up FEH. ( getting high 30's to 41 MPG at 0 degrees! ) LOL

But you WOULD have to pick a date so close to Xmas, now wouldn't you?
I will be going to my mom's house in Sunny Los Angeles on the 21st.


When is the next "meeting"?

-John

darn!! one of the reasons we chose that day is because delta flyer could get time off, and because, though i am two hours from the city, i will be there sunday for the holiday with family.

we certainly will be having another one in the new year.....i will send you information!

You might want to consider moving or copying this into "Events & Gatherings" if you want to draw attention to it.

Looks like I can probably make it - especially since I'm that close.
