It was a great day and I guess about 85 cars showed. I don't know everyone that was involved in its creation and execution but we have to thank C'sBimmer for a great event. The hours drive along the south shore of Long Island was great, it was a little bit like the movie "Death Race 2000" at times but everyone arrived at the north shore waterfront restaurant in one piece.
It was great meeting many people from this board in person, even a number of lady bimmers were in attendance. Well done!

Glad you had so much fun Dave. We're thinking of doing another mini-meet (it will be more of a drive) towards the end of July. Keep an eye out for a new Poll to choose a date.

Which days normally are better for you? Saturday or Sunday?

I loved the drive, so much fun especially along the beach. I'd definitely go again!

Thanks C!

So that's what it was. I noticed that something had happened and was hoping that it wasn't an accident. I'm usually the first to crack a smartass comment, but you're right about it not being funnny, especially so early in the event

I hope you get to drive around on the next one
