All I can think of that's deccent at the moment but there's a ton more.
We need to set a real time to meet up. 3:30? 4?

well thats unfortunate. if it somehow doesnt come through, let me know and come on out!
Update, I have posted this on PittSpeed.com and I have some people coming from there as well. So this should be a pretty good turnout. Hope everyone can make it!

Red Robin is a bad idea.. The whole area is torn up and dirty because of the Westinghouse construction and new roadways.. Plus they work on Saturdays and Sundays making things worse.
If I was to suggest a meeting place it would be a new plaza that only has a bank and some other place in it at the moment. The bank will be closed and the other business is too slow. It is Directly across from Quaker Steak and Lube, UNO, Starbucks and Really close to Pirmanti's also.
Here's a address:
Gateway Bank (Cranberry) is located in the Gateway Commons building at:
900 Commonwealth Drive
Suite 100
Cranberry Township, PA 16066
http://www.gatewaybankpa.com/page.cfm?id=2388
I'm not sure if I'll be able to make it but i'll let everyone know.

We'll find room, its only the original meeting place for people that want to eat so we're not waiting outside of quaker steak, then we'll pick up the rest of the guys there after we eat at QS&L. I hope to see you at the meet Jonesi. And i think he's talking to me in reference to tint, I have 5% on the sides and two layers of 25% on the rear windshield.

Alright, the saga continues, got a text from mcajka and apparently he doesn't "run best buy" cuz he said we can't meet there. Let's just plan to meet at the place jonesi suggested, at the new strip mall with the bank directly across from QSL. Objections?

Since the destination is QS&L I'd just park in the back there.. They host bike nights in the summer every Thursday night and it's always Packed and chaos. They won't care if we have a small get together and park there, especially if we're eating there.. There's plenty of parking in the back section.
Some sort of visual directions.. (was having fun with Paint and google maps)

I've been in Cranberry the last 7-8 years.. Before that was Wexford..
I put "Pittsburgh" in my profile only b/c I doubt anyone knows where Cranberry is in PA..

lol @ Jonesi with the googlemaps. I'm down for either place. QS&L would be the better idea though.
Question though, when I get off the turnpike, is Commonwealth just off the main strip pretty much?

Alright, thats finalized now. We will meet in that lot, roll to Opt B when we eat correct? This is what I got:
PEOPLE THAT ARE EATING: We are meeting at the plaza across from QS&L since Best Buy is being stupid. We will meet there, once we get everyone we will then roll over to OPTION B on the map. UNLESS OPT B is full then we will just park where we were. Depends on whats going on. Im sure it wont be hard to find out where we are.
Here is a map someone posted for me from google:
and for reference:
BEST BUY IS NO LONGER THE MEETING SPOT. ALL PEOPLE NOT EATING WILL MEET @ QS&L. Just look for us, we'll either be at OPTION A OR B, which is either at the plaza across the street or the back lot.
SORRY ONCE AGAIN FOR LAST MINUTE NOTICE, I talked to the guy that was supposed to have it all cleared up for us and said best buy wasnt gonna happen. Once again, this makes more sense to meet across from qs&l anyway, so we should be good. This should hopefully be my LAST CHANGE.
[center]Everything below is FINALIZED. [unless something else happens.] I'll be there rain or shine. Forecast looks like the sun is going to stay out for us and be about 80+ degrees so we should be good.
PLEASE READ BELOW FOR FINALIZED INFO
FINALIZED[again]:
Date: August 3, 2008
Time: 3:30pm
Location: NEW PLAZA ACROSS FROM Quaker Steak & Lube
Gateway Bank is in this plaza, either mapquest for quaker steak or this bank. both will get you to the same place.
900 Commonwealth Drive
Suite 100
Cranberry Township, PA 16066
http://www.gatewaybankpa.com/page.cfm?id=2388
What were doing:Meeting, Eating, Cruisin.
Bring whoever you want, no stupid shit. We'll probably already be attracting attention and we dont need any more of it, especially negative. So keep the stupid shit to a minimum.
I hope to see everyone there! If you have any friends with nice cars, feel free to invite them! This isnt going to be a mega meet by a long shot but if we can get a good amount of people out there, that'd be great.
EDIT: We will be going to QUAKER STEAK & LUBE instead of Red Robin to avoid construction. So if you want to eat, meet us at the PLAZA ACROSS FROM QS&L @ 330pm.
From there we will go to Quaker Steak & Lube, this is to avoid loitering issues. If you DO NOT want to eat, meet us at THE SAME LOT ACROSS FROM Quaker Steak & Lube around 5-5:15pm. From there, we will cruise to PNC Park. [about a 25-30min drive]. We will be down there for however long people want to stay til, i can careless.
Thank you for the cooperation guys, hope to see you all there!

More Paint and Google Maps...! This is a map and directions for anyone coming from Turnpike 76(E or W) and 79(N or S)
- 76(turnpike)
- Take EXIT 28 and Merge onto 79 North.
- Get off at EXIT 78(Seven Fields/Mars).
- At the light make a left onto 228 West.
- Go straight through intersection and it will become Freedom Road.
- Make the second left after going across a small two lane bridge onto Commonwealth Drive and make first right into parking lot.

And Jonesi, you were in wexford? where at? my ex lives like across the street from outback steakhouse, or another way to get there is behind Showcase North. I believe it was in McCandless. Wexford isnt technically a town/city hah.
