Saturday, October 15th Shakedown Run for Dox Hangout

It's going to be too COLD tonight to be standing in a parking lot (10 p.m. forecast=49 degreees, 14 mph wind), so it should be a decent time to try out the hangout. The front half is pretty much done. Foosball should be up and running tonight. 55" screen with XB360 is ready to go. Blue Rays on hand include Fast & Furious 1-5, Boondock Saints 1 & 2. If there's local station sports programming you want to watch, we can do that as well.

 

If there's interest, we'll order pizzas at 8 p.m. and see how that works. The frig is full of bottled water and Red Bull/Monster/Arnie Palmers. There is a vending machine for pop, but the Delco Drive Through is across the street. Please do not bring alcohol or drugs on the premises. If you don't want pizza, there's a McDonald's down the pike at Sandusky Street and London Road.

 

If you have Forza 3 or 4, bring it along with your favorite game. I've only got a few Connect games so far. I have 3 controllers that have never been tested, so bring your own controller along if you want.

 

The garage is open but not cleaned up, so you're welcome to poke around my cars, but don't expect a museum experience. The key element is that the whole place will be TOASTY WARM :p

 

Stay as late as you want. Restrooms are on-site. Cars are within eyesight. The front door will open at 7:30 p.m. We order pizza at 8, pizzas should be ready to eat by 8:45. Popo are bound to be watching your exit, so please, no ricer stuff. The hangout is smoke-free, but you can smoke in the garage, police your own butts.

 

In case you haven't been there, here are directions:

 

Howald Industrial Park

320 London Road, Suite 101 (in Building 100)

Delaware, Ohio

 

(across from the intersection of London Road the Liberty Road)

the place is 14 miles north of Home Depot/Sawmill

it is 1.5 miles from the large Jegs Warehouse at Route 42 and London Road

 

If you are coming from Columbus, it's easy to just go north on US 23 to the first Delaware exit (South Sandusky Street, exit to the left but turn right on Sandusky, then go about a mile and turn left onto London Road. The place will be on your right just after the Delco Drive Through.

 

If you are coming from Sawmill, go directly north on Sawmill Road until it ends at the Hyatts Road Roundabout. Turn right (east) on Hyatts Road, go into the village of Hyatts, turn left (north) on Liberty Road. Liberty road dead ends at the industrial park (turn left onto London Road, then immediately right, into the park).

 

PLEASE POST TO THE THREAD IF YOU INTEND TO COME SO I HAVE AN IDEA HOW MANY TO SET-UP FOR

 

Questions/problems: Text me at 740-405-5565. I've got a full day today, so be patient about me getting back to you.

 

Hope to see you tonight! :thumbup:

If your coming from Columbus and want a fun drive, I think you'll find Old 315N to be a much more entertaining route.

 

If you hang a left at the 2nd stop sign on old 315 and take it to the next stop sign being Liberty Road/County Road 9. Make a right to continue North and Liberty Road dumps you right into London Road, at the intersection you will be facing the warehouse off to the left. Be aware of the 50 to 35mph speed change as it gets more residential on Liberty headed north.

 

Erica and I will be there, probably after skating, ice is open at 815, so we will be up around 10-1030 probably.

I enjoy that route in daylight, but at night along the river, I would caution anyone driving that route to be mindful that the road is filled with deer at this time of year.

Agreed, I guess in my youth ;) I spent a majority of time on it at night. But definitely a caution.

Well I suppose I can come up there, you know its just so far and I don't like to drive at all. I'd really have to go out of my way, but I guess so.

 

I get so sick of the typical responses, of course I'll come up. The only real reason I would consider not coming is Chris Payne and Brian Benner. :p

Don't worry I'll bring protection.
