The Lotus Enthusiast's Organization is conducting it's August road event on Sunday, August 16. It's a Spirited Drive through the Catskills.
This is a real corker, with plenty of twisty roads and scenic views in the best Lotus driving tradition. Just what you need to get the HEAT into your tires! The route was planned by EZMoney.
The Start is at the parking lot of the True Value Hardware Store, 2412 Rt. 52, in Pine Bush, NY. (Just in case anything has fallen off your Lotus on the way there!) Don’t worry: there are gas stations, coffee shops, and restrooms around too, in case you have any other needs. Be There at 10:00 AM, our departure time will be 10:30 AM. (Early arrivals may join us at the Cup and Saucers Diner nearby at 82 Boniface Drive, just half a mile from True Value.)
The Drive winds its way though Catskill Mountains Park before terminating about 2:00 PM at the Mountain Brauhaus Restaurant, 3123 Route 44/55, in Gardiner, NY at the intersection of Rt 44/55 and Rt 299. That is close to the New Paltz exit of the NYS Thruway. Mountain Brauhaus Restaurant
As an additional added treat, we plan to stop at the country home of Rijk Rielveld. Not only does he have working restroom facilities, but he has a Spyker and Ferrari as well (just so you can see how the other half lives).
Feel free to join us at the Brauhaus if your time is limited. Please call me (Atwell) by Thursday 8/13 at 201-852-9742 or at carbuff AT lotusowners.com so we can alert the restaurant with a headcount.
