Title: Any one want to do an Ohio meet and maybe a biodiesel tour
Post by: SmokeyCJR on September 30, 2006, 06:46:45 pm

I'm new to the forum so I thought I would jump right in.  I got into the vw diesel thing a year ago with my Caddy truck and am loving it. Even got the other half into the vw diesel thing( make projects easyer when she is cool with the deal).  I would like to see if anyone would like to do an Ohio meet and cruse, maybe a rally or some thing.  Also I am making bio Diesel with a friend of mine and thought maybe we could show you the works.  I am located in northwestern Ohio, so lets see what we can do.

I was thinking maybe late october or early november of doing a get together but do it as a road rally with check points and some food.  Let me know if any one is interested and we can set some more definaint plans.  I just want to drive my dub.

Might be able to swing it.  Still driving a gasser though.  :P  That's not too far from where I am.

Keep us posted.

I'm in Athens, the drive down here from Columbus through Hocking Hills on SR56 is beautiful this time of year..  I run a shop here and could certainly provide burgers and grill food. We also have a bulk plant that sells good quality biodiesel, but only in drums and only by order on weekdays. There's a guy near here that runs his own plant, that may be open to a tour.. I can check into it if anyone has interest.

Ah yes.  Made that drive more than a few times.  Been to a handful of Halloween parties down at Athens.  :)  Good times, cute town.

Hey i just finished there at UNO, good school there are only a select few who run VW diesels there and now i'm gone. But there are always new people goin there and i saw different VWs every month.

SmokeyCJR- I'm in that area quite often I drive to BG all the time and I am actually looking to work at a place just off exit 161. If you get anything going let me know.

myke_w I have read many of your post and your projects are quite interesting, I would enjoy coming down your way. I might put an order in for some Bio. How far are you from The VWdieselparts.net guy?

Its good to know there are a few of us in ohio.
