Final Bear Mountain Nsx Run

Personally, I don't have a problem with "NE Forum Members" attending, with other cars, but to open it up to all comers is IMHO, not something I'd want to participate in.

Gotcha. He will probably ride along then.
 
I like your format, would you mind taking over the detail? I most likely will attend since work is quiet and the weather looks clear other than below 60 which I don't mind. I like the idea of getting a nice drive, doesn't have to be a race and maybe do lunch and mingle plus checking out everyone's ride.




Just a few days away. Will there be meet spots along the way like the last cruise? Will there still be a meet spot in Queens at the Burger King? If so, is that the one by 147th Street?

You do not want to wait at the bk at 147tb street. The bk they are talking about is way more east. Like past 200th street east.

Good to know! And yeah I see it now, it's right off the Cross Island. What time will others be getting there? I live right off of the Belt Pkwy so I can meet at either BK or right after the Throgs Neck. What are the specific details for the meet up? I was looking at this year's earlier thread for some details.

If someone could provide me with the details for this Sunday's cruise, I don't mind updating the template.

For events going forward, if someone would like to partner up with me to come up with annual cruises during the year, I would be more than happy to lead. I've participated in similar organized events and they are always a good time. Whether it be a cruise up to Canada, across to Philly, down to Ocean City or out east to New England, I am always looking for fun roads to soak up.

I'll be installing my new wheel/tires this week so I will have fresh rubber to burn off lol.
 
2NDWIFE, thanks for taking the lead on this. This is my first Bear Run so I don't really know the detail. I think your format is good and we just need to start with the waiting spots for the L.I., NYC, then NJ and CT folks. I presume the L.I. and NYC folks can all wait right after Throgs Neck since that would be the reasonable spot. Then we can drive up to another spot to meet up with the NJ/CT folks if any. Then I guess is the detail drive direction from spot to spot. Maybe those who've done this can chime in. Just saw a video of driving up to the Bear Mountain tower, would love to do that and it looked beautiful up there.

Anyone has an extra set of the radio? I've never used one.

Gotta get back to work...........

Who from long island knows the way to the gas station up at bear mountain?
 
2ndwife, do you know the exact address for the mobil up at bear mountain? That is our usual meeting spot. If no body wants to lead, I can lead if I get the address. I will be going 80 mph tops though.

80MPH :eek:, I'm thinking 65 :biggrin: !

Do let me know where the waiting spot before we head out.
 
80 is faster than I normally drive, but it is still quit a bit slower than the normal speed for the gathering. If everybody is willing to just cruise there at 70-75mph I will be even happier.
 
OK everyone, I tried my best in pooling as much information as I could from past events. If any of the OG's can input here (times/locations), please let me know and I can edit. I'm not the organizer so I took a best efforts approach here.

Not coming from Long Island, I'll meet you guys over the throgsneck because I'll be in queens from a holloween party. Looks like the group will be half the size this time around but we will see. I'm looking forward to taking lots of fall bear mountain pics. Don't forget the time change guys. Turn clocks back

I'm here just haven't check the page lately, good seeing your Nsx in the midst of this S2000 as well. I think I want one now lol
 
Yeah, I think it's a lot easier for the L.I. folks to just head to BP over the Throgs Neck. I'll be there 7:30am. Can't wait, my very first Bear Run with my NSX!

I will be at the Mobil/DD @830AM, if someone has an extra radio, I'm happy to borrow it!!!
Until Sunday..........................
 
What NJ people are meeting at the Marriott in Teaneck? If you are one of them, what time? I will be in attendance Sunday morning for this run.
