Ok everyone, only SIX days to the meet!!
Everything is in place. I reconfirmed with Torches and they are expecting us. We will have the same huge cordoned off parking lot for our rides as we did last year and the same seating on the patio next to the river.
And here is the best part: I spent today on the roads of our route and I am rejiggering it so that we have TWICE the twisties AND so that we do not pass through the speedtrap haven, downtown Tuxedo.
All 3 caravans (Long Island, NJ and NYC) are organized and each has a thread.
Remember, the meeting time at the Palisades Center is 8 am -- not 9 am as it was last year.
Please come with a full gas tank. There are several gas stations near the Pallisades Center Mall and I am not taking the meet by the gas station in downtown Tuxedo for obvious reasons (just ask theXman who was unjustly pulled over and ticketed in downtown Tuxedo during last year's Bear Mountain Meet.
So get ready, bring your rides and bring your thirst for driving. We'll try to quench it.
Now all we need is for the weather to cooperate.

Yes I am bringing my Victor. He comes with me everywhere on the weekends. And he loves the twisties. Yes I am sure that your boys would love it. You are no craizer than I am. You just happen to be a mom instead of a dad and I don't know many moms that are the car enthusiast that you are. I am sure that ypour bpys will be bragging to their schoolmates that they have the coolest mom out there.
+1 and Scott I think i might make it depends on when the tires get to delivered then i have to mount and balance them for sat. ... lets hope all goes well... but after everything I think we were pretty lucky I didnt spin out or have a serious accident, just a tire that needs replacment and repairing the rim... yes.. after checking on it the next day i found crub marks but not that bad considering what happened.
