NY / NJ / CT Spring Fun Run

Just an fyi ... on pelican they are organising their annual/semi -annual/when weather permits fun run ....

June 3rd .. a saturday ... meets around 9am .. leaving from gas station island/exit on palisades parkway at 10am-ish

lots of different cars ... p-cars with some bmw's and ferrari's /// lambos ... nobles etc ... running up palisades parkway thru bear mountain ending up at a german brauhaus overlooking hudson river ...

phoenix, who is organising this year, has a '73 911T, real nice.

a bump-ín (a small bump in Ireland :) ) for the meet tomorrow ...

this is the second time i go for a ride this year, and both are being overshadowed (excuse the pun) by threats of rain .... some defections already but a hardcore turnout remains optimistic ... and will show up ...

so perhaps it is my irish heritage following me around with a raincloud? :confused:

If anyone is interested, and the weather is not offputting,
9am is meet and greet (exit 5 of Palisades Parkway in NJ)
10am is departure (up palisades and Rt9W to Rt299)
12pm roughly is brauhaus (Rt44/55 & Rt299, outside New Paltz NY, near Mohonk mountain)

should be the 3 of us, 9 month old Hayden is really enjoying his rides in our '78 911sc targa....only question is if we will be bringing the 69 S as well....

only time will tell...see you there.

Lewis, it was a good day, despite the atrocious weather ... it was great to meet Judy and yourself, and of course Hayden, the youngest porsche enthusiast that i know of :)
for our left coast friends, who are dying for rain ... some pics to make you jealous :D

Karl,

I was great to meet you as well.

Judy keeps pushing me to organize an event here at our farm...we are sort of between exits 2 and 5 (if you can imagine that) of the palisades parkway. Pretty easy for anyone in most of NJ, NYC, rockland, westchester, even much of CT.

Once we see what the weather will do this summer, we will pick a date, I'm thinking early July, about a month, maybe 6 weeks from now.

We can easily hold 20 cars at our place, more if we use the cul-de-sac and our friendly neighbor's driveway...fire up the barbeque, and spend the afternoon with a bunch of cool folks.

we'll have to pick a date soon.
