Default Northern CT Posse 2018 Fall Ride

Definition of Posse. 1: a large group often with a common interest; Corvettes, friendships. 2: a group of people temporarily organized to make a search; vistas, food, drink, twisty roads, fun, camaraderie.

Sunday, October 14, 2018.
Here we go again. Mount up for another fun-filled fall day. We will meet in the Best Buy parking lot at 95 Elm Street, Enfield, CT (Exit 48 off I-91). We will be leaving around 9:00 am. I would suggest arriving around 8:30 as we will have a drivers meeting beforehand.
For those needing a bite or coffee, there is Denny's, Dunkin' and McDonalds right there, too.

Again, I am not disclosing this new, entirely different, exciting route and sites, but, it is promised to be a day filled with scenic views, nice roads and a number of fun stops. (Maybe even a Benny Hill moment or two). The total ride will be approximately 65 miles (plus your commute) mostly in CT. The ride should wrap up around 4:30 pm back in Enfield, CT. and easy on I-91.

Please be fully gassed up. Check your tire pressures and fluid levels. I will provide route maps. GPS units are helpful, too. Bring cash and credit cards for the lunch, tastes and other purchases. You may want to pack some snacks and cold drinks, as lunch will be later in the day (1:30ish). Bring walkie-talkies if you have them. An empty cooler may be needed to hold your home-made baked goods and wines, etc.

Time constraints make this a RAIN OR SHINE EVENT. You can wash the Vette when you get home. No daily driver replacements due to inclement weather. I need a firm head count for the lunch, so if you sign up, you are going.

Remember; fun and safety are paramount for our excursions.

I won't have a replacement Corvette by that time.
I can bring up the rear with the blue car if that is ok.

FYI, "passagemaker43" (Keith) is not able to join us for this ride. His "Z06" sailboat has made it down to North Carolina in the Cape Fear area. He & Rose are in safe harbor rocking around in the high winds tonight. They will set out to sea again tomorrow morning to complete their "Cannon ball run" in the Atlantic. As far as I know the Posse Crystal Ball is still on the sailing Z06. Around the time we complete our Fall Ride Sunday they expect to all the way down in their Florida winter escape home. Keith wanted me to pass on his greetings to all!
