What - no s*x?? ..surprised you are graduating then...

Kind regards,

Charlie

 

So this is looking like a no go then?

 

Isn't the 21st Armageddon? I seem to remember seeing a few billboards to that effect... Don't recall if that is coming from the Mayan calendar or from Revelations...

Anyway, that might require some carefully crafted acts of defiance.

(I figure racing the Corvettes qualifies, but there are so many right answers out there...).

I did the route yesterday morning (again), and it was wet and sandy and beautiful. There were a few large commercial vessels anchored well outside the mouth of the Portsmouth River, waiting for terminal or dock space I'd guess. The ocean was choppy enough to dissuade most of the lobstermen, but the north-east swell I was expecting was nowhere to be seen.

Perhaps this good idea should be proposed again? One might begin by asking whether Saturday or Sunday would draw the best crowd? If we want dry weather it looks like early June might be a better starting point, as I have pretty well given up on May.

Kind regards,

Charlie

 

Charlie you sure know how to make that ride sound inviting. I just bought a set of used Rota RB wheels with very used Z1s that I am itching to try. Unfortunately mother nature hasn't been cooperating and there not even on the car yet. Couldn't get any of the lugs on the first wheel loose even with a breaker bar. Whoever installed my old wheels obviously never heard of a tourqe wrench. Bought a four foot length of black iron pipe last night but a monsoon struck just as I was pulling in the driveway. I sure hope I get them installed before Armageddon.

 

Gee that puts a whole new spin on the phrase "crack pipe"...

Here's a little more bait for the coast road...

 

A drive might be fun, I'll have to see if my wife is in to it!

 

DAMN IT...I wish I could find a job by now back up there...we would be really into the coast ride!!!!

 

I think if it's going to rain all week and that this may get rained out too we should move it to next weekend.

It would be a much nicer event when the sun is out.

 

Yeah we can move it since its more than likely going to rain (somewhat a fan of driving in nasty rain though) and more people can do it the following weekend.

 

Lol, it can be fun sometimes to get a little slide out of the back in the wet and I'm sure you can really kick the tail out with that 22mm RSB you have

But it would be great if we could move it up a week, then I could actually attend

 

I second that motion! Particularly since I've had to back out of the Corvette Club event due to front wheel bearing concerns. The new bearings will be on the car by the 28th.

 

Which Corvette Club event?

 

I too would be up for a ride next weekend. Hopefully we will all survive Armageddon or at least outrun it in our MINIs. Maybe the weather will be better to boot.

 

This Saturday - the 21st, an autocross at Devens.

Cheers,

Charlie

 

Who is good for Saturday(5-28) or Sunday(5-29)? Lets get a vote on what a majority can do. Also lets say morning, noon, or night suggestions too.

Right now only Sunday looks open for me and lets say noon or night so we can get some food.

Everyone interested post preferred date and time

 

I could possibly do something the 22nd (this coming sunday), but next weekend is memorial day weekend... family stuff etc

 

That is a good point....I'm still free sunday though and think everyone else should be too

 

Actually, it was pulled out of a scam artist's b*tt.

 

scratch the 22nd, it's the week after that I have plans on a saturday

And as for 5/21/11, that's just the Y2k11 bug in their calendar system hehe

 

Planning dates is so difficult :P

 

ANyone want to grab some food and go for a short ride somewhere today? Weather doesnt seem too bad.

 

Where at ? I get out of work at 5. If it's not way out of the way I'm down

 

Im in Boston so no idea where but we can figure something out if moer people are interested.

 

I'm heading out right now for some lunch and then an adventure to target, but after that I'm pretty much bored.
I'm about 15 minutes from norwood and ~1/2 an hour to quincy... don't know where there's a good place in between.

 

GF and I are around the Boston area pretty bored for the rest of the night.
