Category: Woodward Dream Cruise

Posted by Tom Nagle on Sun, Aug 16, 2009 at 8:45 AM

This Cruise is now in the record books

The discussion a week ago was all about concern over the lack of sponsorship for the cruise and how much that would reduce the quality of the event. Now we know at least from the participant standpoint, this cruise was at least as good as any in the past and in some ways better.

The facts are not in yet about the financial impact and the estimated numbers of cars, but those out on the streets did enjoy the day. The weather was better than many of the past cruises that had some amount of rain, or even loss electrical power. It was a fun and memorable event.

We got together and walked Old Woodward. We did early morning cruising and then watching the other cruisers. As the day ended we enjoyed the very comfortable night air and discussed events of the day and many related events.

It is like an annual reunion event where friendly gear and motor heads as well as those that just enjoy the sights also enjoy each other's company. We discuss special things that we all recalled from the day that ranged from a very unique wooden hearse to the truck with flame throwers. All things we will remember from the day.
