I like that route. I work right off of 66/17 in portland now. I took some of those roads to go to RI to pick up my tranny...nice ride.

here is another one more localized towards Uconn. Bumbfuck area, but decent roads.

^^^ yeah let's do that

Not the uconn one the gillette castle one

The only thing is there arent great places to take pics at either gillettes or devils hopyard. If we swing over the bridge like you guys did last time tho there are some areas around the ferry where we can get along the coast I think.

Insted of going towards the bridge let's head towards old saybrooke

go to my parents house? HAHA. there are actually a lot of good places down in saybrook to take pics I think. Id love to swing down into the golf course and take pics but that might piss people off.

Where do you guys want to start anyway?

Where would be the ideal place to start to go there?

I will make a complete route a little later... maybe tomorrow afternoon.


We will start somewhere... middletown maybe? ... cruise down to east hadam/ lyme/ old lyme area and go by the castle..... go down to old saybrook.... stop and take pics somewhere, drive up through essex or somewhere and back up to middletown
EDIT:
I got a great route in my head! Ill try to do it durring commercial breaks of the new burn notice and royal pains

Once we get to old saybrook we can head down on rt1 and eat at this sea food place I forgot the name, it's right next to that tiny bridge on rt1

next to the singing bridge? Thats bills seafood in westbrook

We can stick closer to old saybrook and go to Jonny Ads. Right off of Rt 1, good seafood / burgers, outside seating.

This is gunna be a long route. you guys ok with that?

Holy smokes! you guys are getting serious! I like being sparatic and going where ever :giggle:

Yeah I think that's the place, you can sit outside right next to the water. The earlier we meet the better that way I don't have to rush to go home to go to work

Very serious lol, this sucks I wanna go for a ride now

yeah Bills is nice and all but its another 10 minutes past saybrook AND you can dream on when it comes to not waiting forever for a table. that place is always packed.

Making route now :)

lets roll...

Come over and well go for a ride

If I didnt have to get up at 4:45 tomorrow I'd be on my way...

Its a long route. We dont have to stop at the castle, or even stop in otter cove in Old Saybrook. I figure we can grab food somewhere on rt 1... probably jonny ads

I am fine with starting somewhere else too.

Ignore the small blip on rt 154 that goes to 148...There is construction there still i think.

Sounds good to me, What time do you guys want to meet up? Personally I would prefer later but if I can't make it out there when you start I can figure something out. I'll be taking pics if we stop for em or not, rolling shots ftw!

Get there early so you could do my ducting :giggle:

Im free anytime. It takes me 15 minutes to get to that shopping center in portland.

The earlier the better, 9-10am... It gets too hot in the afternoon

Well I will probably meet up with you guys at the end...it takes me a solid hour to get to portland...maybe 45 minutes if the sunday drivers don't fuck it up.

Thats what I'm thinking

Chris I'll meet you at you house at 9:00 and we can meet at that place at 9:30?

I could be there at 930.

ROFL to all of your posts i dont know if i could make it.

Why not? I wanna see this thing now with 350whp

If I can't leave my place stupid early and you guys leave around 10 I will most likely meet up with you guys near the singing bridge unless you roll out at 930 then it will be near day pond.

How far are you all from Springfield, Mass. I'm moving there on Sunday and would meet up with you all sometime if it's not too far. I'm originally from Hartford.

I don't know about you but most of us don't have AC and I'm not gonna enjoy a ride when it's 120 inside my car. I don't see what the big deal is about getting up early

I'm an hour away, I'm in new haven

oh well that's not bad! I would love to meet up with you all sometime.

No ac, just have obligations early in the morning. I like to wear breathable cloths and roll the windows down. With the top popped it will be even nicer. Springfield is about an hour away...used to go up to wnec for weekends all the time.

Some of us I.E. me dont have a house so storing a hard top when you take it off isnt soo easy.:vash:

if you want you can just let me keep it for free :)

I have a b day to go to on Sunday what about tomorrow night

hmmmm.......no. i need it for the fast back attachment i want to put on.

Im working sat night

I have shit to do on saturday also.

well no joy ride for anyone then lol. but that sucks

your scared anyways, We will take a joy ride on fastcolts old car :drool:

Damn that's hard core, I was planning on riding in it.

ill have to open the boost back up for you guys then

I think its supposed to be shitty this weekend...:vash:

thats what the report says....damn you mother nature

I was about to say this weekends outlook is bleak:

http://www.weather.com/weather/wxdetail/06457?dayNum=2&

Lets save the route for later

The weather man is always wrong

Lets hope he is this weekend...otherwise I'm going to be fooling around with all the little things that don't work (tach, oil pressure meter, temp meter).

The weather hasn't change yet, we can decide tonite or we can wake up tomorrow and decide. What do you vaginas think?

dont care either way.

idk my vagina doesnt do anything when the weather changes...im not sure about yours though.

tornado watch right now in 3 counties. LOL.

great day for a drive wouldnt you say?

yeah maybe i can catch the tornado just right to make my turbo spool faster!!!!

The weather for rocky hill is now saying 80% chance of Tstorms. I vote we call it off and save the route for another weekend.

I agree, my vagina isn't water tight...don't want more rusty shit. What about the 19th, 20th, 26th, or 27th? I am game all those days anytime.

im down any weekend really.

I'll be in Springfield, Mass by Monday. I'll keep track of when you all want to meet and try to make it. I don't mind taking an hour trip to meet.
