For New York Drivers and anyone else interested:

Ok, a few weeks back i thought of a run that could go down.. maybe 15-20 cars. Nothing big just a nice drive for a weekend day or something.

M to M: Manhattan to Montauk
Basically start in Manhattan or possible Long island city because how chaotic the city is and take northern state all the way out to Montauk point obviously take roads to head south along the way. On the way back take southern state or sunrise highway.

There are a few kinks that need to be worked out.
1. I know just from manhattan to montauk is like a 3 hour drive depending on speeds. So some people may not want to drive back to manhattan which is understandable.
2. The trip can start at either place. Starting at montauk and heading towards the city would be a nice drive too.
3. Ill leave 3 for problems that come up later

Im planning to do this run in June, more likely Late June.
Like I said before, nothing special, im not planning on bringing more then 20 cars but if that does happen it will be cool. This is the first run i will ever be on and also first run im organizing. Im guessing somewhere along the trip we will stop at a local fast food place for lunch.. get some food talk abit and head off back on the road.

So....
If you live in the New York area and want to join up, just reply to this thread "I want to come" and i will right your name down and try and get more information out to you guys.
Also...
If you have any suggestions please dont hesitate to make them

Looking forward to this summer!
Thankyou

 

i would be interested on a sunday as i work on saturdays ,also may only do a partial as i never drove the 61 200miles over a short period but it may be nice to join in for 50 or so miles

 

Sounds good. Depends on the exact date in June. Please keep me in the loop

Thanks

 

 

I pretty sure I know where Montauk is, Where's Manhattan ?????

 

I heard a rumor once that it is a little island just north of Brooklyn.

 

Is it named after a drink ???

 

Sounds like a great idea, would definitely take ALL day though...

Put me down as tentative

Well like i said We could change it depending on where everyone that comes lives.. If we all live closer to montauk we will start there.
And only drive west back to probubly nassua border.

But we do have some time to decide ... 2 1/2 months so.

But im happy to hear people are up for it.

 

How can you go to Monauk and not stop for some fishing???

 

That's a pretty big stretch going M to M. Once you get off the expressway its like 'are we there yet?' You might want to consider trimming the tail end of the trip. Just my 2 cents. keep me in the loop, I'll be on the island two weekends in June and may participate in a stretch.

 

sounds good.. post up what date you think. And if I may.. one word of advice.. if its anytime in the summer season remember that you are going to hit traffic heading back from Montauk on a Sunday

Keep us posted
