I think we should have a meet up sometime next year. So one of us should try and organize this. Preferably itd be some where kind of central to all of us so no NYC or LI.

Any one up for this?

DISCUSSION (22)

It should be at Yorktown Cars & Coffee.

How about upstate NY? Just kidding, it wouldn't work. Sigh.

I'm down, preferably at an LI location though. I'm out in Suffolk so anywhere on the Island works for me, I just don't want to pay tolls to have a meet up.

Watkins Glen Oppo meet?

Why wouldn't that work?

Either way someone would pay tolls unless I get EZPass when I get a car. There's really no way to avoid tolls in NYS

I know of an upcoming film festival we should all go to.

Because (I assume) most Opponauts in NY live in the city area... Long drive up.

Long drive down for me. It kind of sucks being the only person in Upstate.

I'm upstate!

Thats what I was thinking. There are great roads in that area.

Lol well I can avoid them, I just can't leave this island! But yeah I suppose someone is going to end up paying, and truthfully I desperately want to take my car through a tunnel. I'd go upstateand probably make a weekend out of it. There are a few roads up there I'd like to hit up.

What part? I'm near Syracuse.

Albany-ish.

Finger Lakes region is great. A lot of the state parks in the area are really nice too if you like camping.

Hudson River Valley area? I've been out there its nice. I've got family there.

I'm basically in Albany. 30 minutes away more or less.

I'm in the Albany area, if that helps at all. Not sure how many of us in the Capital District.

I live in Oswego but I just tell people Syracuse because more know it and it's half true.

I've never been real camping and I haven't been upstate since I was too little to remember it. I'd love to take a trip up there in the fall to drive the roads and see the foliage.

You should its really nice. I would try and schedule something in the fall but it'd probably be too short notice and I can drive by myself yet. Any where in the hills get really nice.

I'm up in the way-way north on the border. Obviously that would be a pretty crappy place for a meet but if there's a NY event I'd definitely spread the word and possibly get a bit of the Clarkson Sports Car Club to show. We have the Black River Stages coming up in September, it's the national championship round for NASA RallySport this year so I'm hoping there's a bit more attention than it usually gets.
