Hmmm...gratiot during cruise hours, woodward after?

Typical woodward meeting spot.

What about gratiot? Where we all meeting up there, and what time? Im going out there around noon i think.

Well i was out there from 545pm until 830pm by the time i got back to my car, walked from 9 mile to 10.5 mile and turned around and walked back, sat around for a while by the Dodge Repair Shop/Used Car lot.

I didnt see any SEMB people though, musta been my eyes. I did see a lot of prospects though. Very interesting indeed.

Oh well, back to work tomorrow.

I was there from 11-7 or so... car was parked in parking lot with the subway and the petco (and other stuff). Lots of nice cars there. I did however get lectured by the cops for doing nothing wrong :(d

the cops were pretty crazy out there. I liked how at 8pm they just blocked the streets and cleared them, it was amusing by all means.

BTW I thought the cruise was supposed to end at 9pm? Thats what i thought the yellow signs said.

It was alright... Seemed like there were too many idiots out there with there normal daily cars. I was going north down gratiot and took me awhile to get to 10 mile and hit the turn around, when I started going south it was joke!!! Couldn't even move. It's not like I'm trying to get somewhere in a hurry, but the woodward cruise moves faster than that cruise. The location was a joke, 8mile to 10mile, not a good choice! I think I'll stick with Woodward, Downriver, and the Harper cruise. Much better!!! Seriously, that seemed like a regular warm day on Saturday out on Woodward, little disapointed. :smt076

I agree, no one was even goin South on Gratiot, it was all bottled up and there were too many daily drivers out there. They didn't even seem to have a centrl show car lot to cruise to. I won't be goin next year.

For those who went this year the Gratiot Cruise wasn't as good as it normally is. Last year there was so many people all the way down from 8 mile to 10 mile, and there were more lots full of cars. I think the weather had something to do with it. I was hoping to see some of you guys out there. I was parked in the cloverleaf parking lot. Gratiot Cruise could be a lot better if Roseville would finally decide to get in on the action to make it longer and move faster..

Meh, i thought it was alright.

Its the first cruise of the year isnt it? What do you expect honestly...

And if the gratiot cruise is bad, i wonder how the jefferson cruise is going to be.

9cobra7 good to see ya still hanging out around the club. Yeah, I wasn't too impressed with the cruise this year! Last year was better. They shouldn't be starting it at 8mile(no turnarounds) and that is a busey intersection!!! Going to the Dowriver cruise next weekend after the stoney meet, you should go :smt045
