Meeting Place last year was the Basketball Hall of Fame in Springfield, MA. I have to check back with Omega if this is where we plan to meet again. Please watch the thread for updates.

Any thoughts on locations, 1 day, 2 day run, restrictions (remove some small issues that came up on the last run). Lets start planning


:::UPDATE:::

Rally Date: May 17th (Saturday)
Start: BBall Hall of Fame (Springfield)

Following has been copied from Zmazing03 Fall Mountain Run thread that was amazing.


For those of you who went on this trip earlier this year or last year, know how good of a turn out it was and the awesome roads we traveled. This trip will be the exact same route as the previous run with the same starting point to accommodate the expected large turnout.

If you have ever dreamed of cruising on that one street, with all the curves and elevation changes you could ever imagine, but never got the chance, here is your chance. Specifically the last sector of "The Run", which is as close to a roller coaster in a car as you can get. All sections leading up to the finale are just a tease, but will certainly get your senses going anyway. S turns, tight winding 180s, it has it all. And Cows, lots of Cows.

“The Run” will depart from the Basketball Hall of Fame, just off Exit 6 on I-91. We will then travel a on the highway a bit before coming to the beginning of the twisties. Once we arrive there (about 15-20 minutes after “The Run” begins), it is all hills and curves for the next hour and a half. If you have never had your Z on roads it was built for, now is your chance.

“The Run” will be complete at Stratton Mountain. Here we will have a huge parking lot for Z enthusiasts to talk about their rides, take pictures, etc. This past running Stratton security did not mind us using a large portion of their lot as it was off-season (as it will be again) and people behaved. We need to stick to that. If you'd like, Stratton has a few restaurants you can have lunch at before departing for home. There is also a bit of shopping possible (for the ladies). All stores/resturants should be open this time of the season.

More information regarding routes etc. will be provided as the event nears. We will depart the Basketball Hall of Fame in Springfield@ 8:15 AM promptly. We want to go early to avoid traffic holding us up anywhere along The Run. We will leave at that time, so please do not cut it so close where you may be late.

If you would like an address to reference where the run begins, you can MapQuest (link) or Google Earth the following:

1000 West Columbus Ave
Springfield, MA 01105

Notes:
- If you have two-way radios (i.e. Motorola TalkAbout), bring them. The more people we have in touch the better off we are, especially if we get a large turnout.
- Recognize that if the actual turnout is close the the sign-up number (expected to be over 60), it will be impossible to stay in one pack -that's okay, as long as people know the route.
- Route instructions will be available just before the meet, and not before hand. This has been discussed and will not be changing. No one got lost last Run so no worries about that.

Now for Day 2

Rooms range from $70 - $150 +taxes
Still need a solid count of how many want a 2nd day, and any route ideas.

I want to make something VERY clear, SAFETY FIRST.

2nd Day is still in the works for planning. We need some of those from VT or NH to help myslef and omega out for the way down. If you know anywhere nice or that has some twisties please let us know. I was also thinking about having us all crusie down to the NH drag strip for a day of fun and racing. Let me know what you guys think.

Day 1. == back road twists
Day 2. == The group heading down to Epping NH Dragway.

PM myself or Omega46 for questions or just post up here on the thread.
