Meeting between 2-3 PM tomorrow at Mike's. Don't know what from there.

MikeinAlexandria · 09-26-2009, 06:36 PM

Backroads drive to Annapolis. Late afternoon lunch at Davis Pub or Cantlers or one of the Kent Narrows places. Anyone have a good recommendation for a place with good Lotus parking?

09EliseMW · 09-26-2009, 07:57 PM

can I get the address to the placewe are meeting. Pm or something. Thanks!!

MikeinAlexandria · 09-26-2009, 10:24 PM

Ok,
Here is the Garmin generated course for us. I have done most of it before, but there are some new bits that I have only driven on a motorbike. Should be interesting in the Lotus. Who ever is coming, please print a copy for yourself! I'll try and print some tomorrow as well, still tinkering with my wireless printer.

I sugest Adam's Ribs on Kent Island. There is another Adam's Ribs in Eastport and both locations have decent parking. A convoy through dowtown Annapolis should turn some heads... I'd like to catch up with you so please share your thoughts. I'll PM my mobile# to Mike... The rain has stopped here in Annapolis. Any chance this could get started earlier?

Plenty of parking at Adam's Rib here on the Island..
Come on over!!

MikeinAlexandria · 09-27-2009, 08:35 AM

Hey guys. We decided to end at the parking lot next to Carrolls Creek Cafe, right in Eastport. Should be there between 3:30pm and 4. Stop by and say hi!

You can reach me at
703-765-4845.

Meet this afternoon after 2pm at 510 N Royal St. Alexandria, 22314.

I'm going to leave Annapolis around 2:30 in the opposite direction of your map and meet up with you along your planned route back to Annapolis. I want (need) the drive!!! See you this afternoon.

Sykesville on 9/19 was a more typical Chesapeake PCA event. 1st car off was about 10 or 10:30. It was a smaller crowd so we we had a few fun runs at the end. Hopefully see you next time.

MikeinAlexandria · 09-28-2009, 12:56 PM

Thanks to everyone who made it out! This was a short notice run, and fairly short (under 65 miles) I used Garmin Mapsource to pick out some of the roads, in hopes of finding some good corners. I think we found a few!

Pics look great! That's my LRG Elise in front of my house... Fun to see some white Elises as well! In all, it was a good day. Now, I need to find some more roads close into DC...

09EliseMW · 09-28-2009, 03:46 PM

sorry i couldnt stay longer. had to deliver a 50'' plasma to my mother and it was my brothers birthday as well. next time i come home i will definately let you know in advance. whatever event you get planned, count me in.
