    It appears that i will be spending 3/6 months near Chicago to undego a training in MR/Business development @ my good friend company in order to later start the european operations , which i will ( hopefully ! ) lead.

    So im organizing a few stuffs here and will take the plane in the next 10/20 days.

    Hope to meet a lot of the Chicago people while im there , esp as im converting my Boss/friend to Ferraris !

    Great Andrew,
    I would also be pleased to meet you. As you will notice, if you check the Chicago area posts, regarding restaurants and attractions, you will surely notice we are not short of opinions. :) It would seem that you are going to be visiting, during some of the colder months, so hope for a mild winter. Even though the weather may become brutal, the museums do offer enough of time consuming diversions to fill much of cold winter.

    Regards,
    Bill

    I don't want this French guy in our city. And what kinda name is amenasce anyway!

    I mean I would never go to Paris either. So stay where you are!
    :)


    Seriously: Looking forward to talk shop over a Stella Artois at Joe's Brasserie. Don't forget to bring the Cryptex!

    1st stop Bentley Gold Coast...Make sure you bring none-slip shoes, as the floor will be covered with hair gel!

    Hey Bill365....Sorry I never called you back. We've been busy and I've been on and off with some different sicknesses. The day after the "Kic ala'Bric" I got tonsillitis. Hows work been? Have you loaded up your warehouse with exotic cars? I'm still searching for my Ducati :D so keep sending me links of ones you find! Did you see some of our KIC pics?

    If you have a request of a cool car that might have been there, let me know.

    Long Grove is a realy nice little .... as you would say... quaint town.... It's fun durring apple season when, you name it, they have anything and everything apple there....

    I grew up in Palatine, just a little south of Long Grove. I work in Deer Park, in between Palatine and Long Grove on Rand Rd (Rt 12) and Lake Cook Road, just right down the street from Long Grove.

    Your comming just in time for the fall colors to start happening soon...

    ** Whatch out for that strip joint on the corner of Rand and Lake Cook, it's been a very long time since i was there and it was scary.... HAH! **
