Where do we start off at?

We meet at Leo's Coney Island at 9845 Telegraph Road in Taylor at 9:00 a.m. for breakfast. Then at 10:30 a.m. people group up and begin the hunt for the Fox. If you don't have any directional finding equipment, don't worry. There will be someone there that you can ride with. It's sure to be a fun time for all!
