Bear Mountain Cruise In 7/20/05
Just got back from the weekly Bear Mountain Cruise In (sorry, no pics!!)
The place was packed. Lots of Corvettes - a Mag Red C6 with a power top (the owner is really nice - once had a 66). A couple of nice big block 66s. A really nice black C5 Z06. Some C3s, a couple of nice 57s (one black, one Cascade Green).
Lots of great muscle cars. Lots of interesting motorcycles, and plenty of slims, too. Complete sensory overload!!!
Took Seven Lakes Drive through Harriman (Okay - - I was on the Harley), then Perkins Drive to come around the back. A great ride when the road is empty.
This show is definitely worth a trip, even though it's only on Wednesdays. Even for the Schedule Constrained. Stephen T needs to bring his Spy Cam.
Looked for INTRUBL, but did not see him.

This is the first time I went up this summer. There have been a lot of Wednesdays when I thought of going, but we either got a tropical storm, or something else happened.
I went almost every week last year.

My understanding is that to park on the show field, you either have to be a member of the sponsoring club, or be older than 1985.
There is spectator parking. I'm not sure if there is a fee. I went In Though the Out Door (to quote Led Zeppelin).

Intrubl is away on vacation I believe in Cape May without the Vette.... 
To get your car in the field you would have to join a club and pay their fees. Not a bad deal if you can get there a few times throughout the summer...

From the Cops and Rodders/Rod Benders Webstite: http://www.copsroddersrodbendersny.homestead.com/
"Due to logistical support and limited space, starting Spring of 2005 only cars 1985 and older will be permitted in the cruise area...
BEAR MOUNTAIN STATE PARK WILL BE CHARGING FOR SPECTATORS PARKING AND CAR CRUISE SHOW CARS THIS YEAR THE PRICE WILL $2.00 PER CAR. THIS IS NOT A CLUB IDEA. WE GET NONE OF THE MONIES COLLECTED FOR THIS."
Bob also let us know that you can enter the show field, if you are a member: http://forums.corvetteforum.com/show...89&postcount=4

Up here vetteless on Cape Cod
. The weather has been perfect a "10" for the last few days. Got trashed by some pretty big waves at Nauset beach 
. If you join their club your car is allowed on to the field no matter what year your car is. The dues are $40 a year, than you don't have to pay the $2 parking fee.
Be back this weekend, anybody want to carve some twisties on Sat. or Sun. afternoon?
