28th St Metro Cruise 2013

[Hussker]

Hey anybody planning on going to the Metro Cruise in Grand Rapids this year? Would love to do a meet up and do some cruising. Not sure of any specific time but I will be out there Friday night and all day Saturday.  I was thinking the Fox Ford/ Mazda dealership. Its is on 28th st and M37. Someone throw out a time, I would love to see some Rotarys!
