Feels like I'm beating a dead horse but I'll do it anyway because I still think there's value here...

Is there anyway we can still make this happen?

Just pick a date and time. I feel no one ever showed up because that specific day and time was never set.

People who want to come will come.

I think its just that the internet generation is crazy shy.

Im in Wicker Park.
Im running all around the city most days...so it doesnt really matter when/where for me.


What are you folks currently focusing on?

I"m not sure its shy...just coordinating a meetup with dates/times/locations with busy people on a forum can be tough. Easy to say yes I'm game, tougher to actually get done. I'm doing software consulting and working a software acquisition right now.

I'll be out of town during the week of Thanksgiving, but I'm open anytime.

I'm focused on importing and selling on Amazon/ebay.

OK well....I've tried to plan a couple sessions in the past but the response has been lukewarm at best. December is a little hectic as far as meetups. I will shoot for a date in Jan and we can try again

I say we just put down January 30th. Nice and easy. 1 or 2 people, it doesnt matter. Its all about gaining connections with one another and helping one another move forward. Isn't this just an example of "just do it" rather than "maybe tomorrow, or next month"? Friday, January 30th at 6pm. Location is up for debate to anyone who is wanting to join. Who else is able to join then? This shouldn't be the only meet up.

So did we set a time/place for this on the 30th? I propose a loop location around 5:00?

Far NW Chicago burbs
The weather is getting better, does anyone want to try to get a meet up going for the Chicago leg of the Fastlane Forum?

I live in the actual city of Chicago- but I'm mobile.

My schedule is somewhat flexible. If so, post here or message me.

Greetings, I live in the far NW suburbs and am interested. 4/19 should work.

I'm taking another stab at this to see if anyone's interested again. I'm in the city and would love to meet up with some local folks. Right now Saturday 8/22 or 8/29 works for me

So....no interest in a Chicago meetup at all? Would love to meet in person with some Fastlane readers and trade ideas.
