* Socialize and learn from each other.
* Exchange ideas and information. Informally. Usually in a bar.

106 Miles is symbolic of the journey entrepreneurs that take.

Elwood: "It's 106 miles to Chicago, we got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark, and we're wearing sunglasses."
Jake: "Hit it."
