Hey, anyone has any ideas for a meet this month?
How about a nice twisted road off of major highways in the tri-state area to enjoy our cars and the nature at this time of the year?
People like to meet-up every week for instance in the city but then the activity becomes socializing exercise more than anything else. Driving in the city and running into cops/ fines is stressful/ a waste of time.

Foliage is for the most part past peak north of the city. How about a run along the Delaware River to New Hope Pa.?

Here is a video of the Cayman Club's Fall Foliage Cruise in the Catskills. I was directly behind the car that shot this video.

And this is a shot Ms. Audio took on a cruise we went on with some Bimmerfest Members (EdCT, Fredric, Larry Schloss and Equ) in October. This road was in Redding Ct.

There is a good Barbeque Place in West Cornwall Ct. just accross this covered bridge. The drive from NYC to west Cornwall is spectacular.

An otherwise great day was marred by an unfortunate incident when one of the Caymans went off the road and down a ravine. Fortunately driver and passenger were OK.
The Cayman was destroyed.
