NY/NJ/CT/PA Gruppe - pre Winter run - Nov 4th 2006

[karlusmagnus]

ok folks, before we all (those on east coast, or rather ne coast) shut down for winter ...
one last run ...

November 4th ... Saturday ... at 10h00 am ...
departure at 10h30 am.

Departing from parking spot between exit 1 and 2 on I-84



Travelling Westward (on I-84 towards PA for the directionally challenged), after Exit 2, approx one mile, there is a parking area off I-84.

Take this turnoff, which is downhill ... it is 1264 ft above sea level, and if you have a camera, makes for a nice viewing spot to take pics of the valley below.

Here we can meet between 10h00 and 10h30. No bathroom here though.
Then we depart together, travelling about 1-2 miles to Exit 1.
Take exit one, and turn left, following Rt-6 West. There is a Sunoco station on the right hand side which would be a good place to refuel, as there is lots of parking and it is the 1st gas station off of the interstate.
+ it would be a bathroom break if need be.
200 yards on the right after Sunoco, after your turn right at lights, is a Dunkin Donuts/Baskin Robbins in case someone wants more upmarket bathroom.

Travelling through Port Jervis we continue straight, following the road which is Rt-6 West, in direction of Rt-42 and Rt-97.
A few miles later we are past Port Jervis, on Rt-97.

Once we get to Callicoon, which we approach downhill, we take the right at the traffic light, and then right again 50 yards later, and right again 100 yards later again. We are now on Lower Main St.
After Pecks Market (on left), we see Mathews On Main signpost, on left hand side of street. Before sign, turn left to rear of restaurant where there is a multitude of parking.

restaurant has excellent chilli and excellent crabcakes.

how many people can we get ..?
all cars welcome, but before we post on any other boards, lets see how many we get from earlysregistry?

of course, the weather will tell us which car as well...since I'm hoping to have the sport seats in the '69 by next weekend....down here in NJ, we should be able to keep driving for maybe another month, could be 2....of course, you never know.

oh, need to add 1978 saab 99 turbo, 37,000 miles to my signature.

hmmmmmm....... Port Jervis is only a 2.5 hour jaunt from Western Mass. Clutch is back together and I will have new wheels and skins on by then. Let me see who I can roust from this neighborhood.

[karlusmagnus]

hmmm sounds good Joe ... hope you can make it, and the weather holds out. As of tonite , from NOAA, it says "Saturday: Mostly sunny, with a high near 46. "
Cool and crispy.

Would be nice to get a good run in, preferably on a nice crisp sunny day.
