Rules? To ensure safety and order, there are simple rules that must be followed:
Absolutely NO street racing
No passing or changing places in line
Always stay single-file
If you become separated, continue following the posted speed limit. Cruise organizers have walkie-talkies to let the leader know when the line is broken.
What to Expect? Like all GC2 cruises, the Pink Ribbon Ride is a carefully planned automotive cruise through the scenic roads that surround Joe Pool Lake. Owners arrive at the meeting location to get to know the other enthusiasts before climbing into their steeds to follow each other in a single-file line throughout the cruise route.

Please be sure to visit The Pink Ribbon Ride Webpage (http://www.girlscantoo.com/events/pinkribbon2004.html) for more information about the cruise and our beneficiary! :)

Thanks so much Keith! :) She was so inspiring to me when I found her website. I've been searching for the perfect beneficiary for all of my local events - I knew I found it in her the minute I read the first paragraph! :cool: Hope you can make it!

I'll be there if life dosen't get in the way.( AGAIN!) I haven't seen you guys in a while, and this sounds like fun. If I can't be there, you'll have a donation from me at the very least.

No way! :cool: We've enjoyed many of them. Last fall's cruise was covered by Fox Sports. The number of cars depends on the weather. Great people show up either way! :)

Also, Humperdink's afterwards offers a Pappa's-like atmosphere where everyone can move around, meeting new and hanging with old, and still enjoy good food/drinks. :cool:

And fyi, since I've been asked numerous times, the male/female ratio is typically 50/50. We just named it this way for our beneficiary. ;)

This pic was taken at our Spring Cruise. :cool:

Definitely head out for the first half of the cruise. We'll meet up at 10-11:30 (hopefully having an '05 GT on display) and then we'll cruise until around 12:20-1 and end at Joe Pool lake. From there you can head back to I-20 and get to work or go back through the cruise route till 2:30-3, followed by dinner at Humperdink's. :cool: Hope you can make it.

For those wanting to make a donation you can do it thru this link: http://www.girlscantoo.com/events/pinkribbon2004.html#Support or mail it to me at Girls Can Too P.O. Box 171626 Irving, TX 75017 Thanks Nick! Sux you won't be there. :( Duff'll have his chopper there!

i was originally going to make it, but not sure now b/c i called in to work. Plus i won't even be able to pimp my own ride, i might have my friends silver 99v6 instead. The ride i'm not worried about, its my job so we'll see what happens.

So sorry to hear that mild2002gt! :( I totally understand that work comes first. Hope to see you at another g2g. :cool:

Sadly Keith, the cruise will be over around 2:30ish. BUT we are going to Humperdink's at NW HWY around 3:30. Definitely try to make it to that! :)
