The First Annual Fulton, WI Lunch Run

Does anyone remember The Moonshine Lunch Run? If so did you ever attend? I did and thought it was great. In the tradition of Moonshine I have talked a friend of mine into doing something similar. He owns The Fulton Store oddly enough located in Fulton WI. Last Saturday of April, the 29th 2023 will be The First Annual Fulton Lunch Run. Moonshine did hamburgers, Eric is doing hot dogs and chili dogs. I'll buy a hot dog for the first 50 people that travel over 50 miles to attend. Hope you can make it.

On one of the Moonshine runs, coming across MI and IN, it was -2C and my feet nearly froze.

I'll buy a hot dog for the first 100 people that travel over 50 miles to attend. Hope you can make it.
As fun as that sounds, I don't think I can talk the wife into a 2000 mile ride for a hotdog. :unsure:

Less than 90 days to The Fulton Lunch Run!

The hot dogs have been decided upon and they are delicious. These are quarter pound all beef hot dogs made locally.
There will be chili, I heard rumors of home made potato salad but that has yet to be confirmed and soft drinks water and coffee.

The hours, The Fulton Store opens at 6am. Hot dogs will be served from 9:30 until 2:30. Eric has great cinnamon rolls if you choose to get there early. He also said if someone has travelled great distance and gets there late he has no intention of letting them go hungry.

It's a work in progress. More updates as thing get closer.

Hope to see you there.

For us out of towners that want to camp, are there campgrounds in the area?

Google "campgrounds near edgerton wi"

Personally, I can't recommend any of these, I haven't camped since, well, Gerald Ford was in office.

That sounds terrific Don, Thanks.

interesting though …. “40 miles will get you a hotdog” … If I’m not mistaken, I believe you live 43 miles from that store?

Count me in.

We have a tent! Not knowing how many people to expect or the weather we rented a 20x40 tent. There's seating inside the store but we figures outside cover is good too!

Yeah but regardless of how many miles I live from the store I'm the one buying the hot dogs!
Just over a month to go. I've arranged go a day early, stay the night with a buddy from Chicago, and then we will both ride up from there. Looking forward to meeting you Donk.
the Ferret that's great news! Be careful in that Chicago traffic! Was going through Chicago a couple years ago and seemed traffic was moving along ok . Looked down at the speedo and realized it was bumper to bumper at 90 and I was being passed regularly.

The Fulton Lunch Run is T -30! All the pieces are in place for a great day. Looking forward to meeting a lot of you there.
I love hotdogs, but I'm only 40 miles away - darn. If I don't have to work that day I'll ride down.
1,170 kms/727 miles from Winnipeg…tempting

@ Donk ....Two weeks to go! May have another gent joining me from Evansville Ind. Will meet him in Indianapolis before continuing on to Chicago. We are going to skirt the western side of Chicago and then my Chicago buddy's going to meet us about 20 miles outside of the city and guide us in to his house. He may have 3 more people joining us on Saturday for the ride to Fulton.

Where will I be able to find you Donk? You going to be inside or mingling?

Ferret you deserve an award. You have single handedly done more to help this event get off the ground than anyone! Can't thank you enough! I will be mingling inside or out, given the square footage of the store it will be easy enough to find me. I'll be the guy wearing the deer in the headlights look.
