LEO NJ/NY/etc - November 14 Spirited Drive


Croc

Recommended Posts

This was a great event last year with a good Seven turnout. With new Sevens now in NJ plus the (remote?) possibility of seeing Al's new restored Seven - it should be a good day.

Posted From LEO

Our season-ending November Spirited Drive is planned for Sunday, November 14. Once again we begin with a nourishing breakfast at William Thomas Roadsters, 269 Everittstown Rd (Rt 513), Frenchtown, NJ at 10:30 AM. We will have a 90 minute Drive planned...perhaps with a special attraction to visit. Of course we will finish up at a restaurant.

 

Happy Lotusing,

For those that want navigation help to get to Bill's place I have a suggestion of a meeting place off I-78.

 

I would suggest 9.30am at exit 15 on I-78. It takes some time to get to Bill's place from there plus you will want a chance to check out the cars lined up in Bill's front lawn.

 

When you come off I-78 at exit 15 at the traffic lights at the end of the ramp there is a Shell gas station on the right hand side at the lights. There is only 1 gas station and it is plainly visible - you really cannot miss it.

LEO hosts it's final Spirited Drive of the year, on Sunday, November 14th!

 

Once again, our supporter William Thomas Roadsters will host the beginning of the Drive. Meet at WTR, 269 Everittstown Rd (Route 513), Frenchtown, NJ, 08825, at 10:30 AM for coffee and refreshments. Bill Thomas will show us the latest Sector111 bits for Elises.

 

Then, about 11:15 AM, we will depart on a two-hour, 60 mile Drive though some of the most scenic areas in New Jersey and Pennsylvania. It's the usual LEO Road Romp: lots of curvy secondary roads. This year we even throw in a couple of covered bridges!

 

As a special treat we will be stopping at the Van Sant Airport in Erwinna, PA (Bucks County) to have a look-see at the old airplanes and gliders.

Our final destination is the Indian Rock Inn in Upper Black Eddy, PA, just a few miles south of Interstate 78 on the Delaware River. This picturesque inn is situated on the Delaware River right on the D&L Canal Towpath (which is now a hiking trail). Geat food and drink!

For those who came on our July Sevens Run in the area, Van Sant Airport is was the small airport we passed but did not stop at.

Any Se7ens heading to Frenchtown should try to meet up with us along the way...

 

From the Lotus Talk fourm:

 

Chris & Ron, Let's meet at the Stateline Diner 375 Rt. 17 North, Mahwah (Leave 7:30) and head South on I-287

 

Atwell, Dave and anyone else can meet us at the Dunkin' Donuts in Parsippany (Leave 8:30) then to I-78 to Clinton

 

Mike, Jon, Richard & Stewart, Why don't you meet up with us at the traditional Se7en Shell station at Exit 15 off of I-78 (Leave 9:30) near Clinton and take Mike's road to Frenchtown.

 

Just a "draft" plan... Suggestions, additional drivers and recommendations are more than welcome.

 

Karl"
