Anyone considering a trip to the Watkins Glen Festival Sept 7-9?


Recommended Posts

I didn't make it last year, but hope to go this year.

 

Its a 250 mile one way trip from Ontario Canada, but I think it will be worth it!

 

If someone wants to convoy in their Seven as well, let me know.

I've been attending this event for the past 20+ consecutive years - wouldn't miss it. Better secure your accomdations NOW if you haven't already - places book up very quickly in the area, and are expensive. Also plan on rain for some of the week-end. In the last 20 years, there's only been 3 weekends I can remeber where there was no rain for Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Plan on being in the village no later than Fiday noon - the Friday festivities are not to be missed and make the weekend.

 

Definitely take the 7 - you'll be glad you did.

 

cheers, lgb240

To walk up and stand next to a 917, 956 and a 962 all in the same room.

 

To listen to a flat 12 917 start up and drive away on a public road...truly special
