re: Team BHP USA meets in Detroit

I am available during the weekends as well except 19-Oct.

How about 26 or 27 Oct which would give everyone some time to plan (especially for people planning from Toronto).

Sounds like a plan. Let us lock Oct 26/27

When : Oct 26th or 27th (Firm date to be decided later but, preferably 26th as being a saturday)

Where : Metro Detroit (We can finalize the location later and go for a short drive to any place where we can enjoy fall colors- Any suggestions?)

What : Plan for Lunch together

Confirmed Names
1. Mobike008
2. vj123
3. Akshay S

Please copy above and paste it back adding your names

I will ping Moderator Deep separately and hopefully he will also join

We might have very few options (good driving roads with fall colors) within metro Detroit area. One option which I can think of is Hines drive (Northville to Dearborn).

I am also open to longer drives (say an overnight stay in north west MI along M22) if others are available.

Hines Drive is a good idea. We can tentatively lock this route of 17 miles scenic drive to check out the fall colors

We can start from Northville and end at Ford Garage in Dearborn for lunch

Folks travelling from Toronto or Pittsburgh might be interested in this overnight trip to N.W Michigan. Unfortunately, I wont be able to join

Where do you live VJ?

Thanks, it'll just be me.

Who else is driving from Toronto?

Also, whereabouts is the plan to start - Northville Farmers' Market (Sheldon Drive & 7 Mile Rd)?

I lived in Southfield when I was working with IBM on the GM account at the Renaissance Center way back in 2006, not too far from Farmington Hills.
