MINIs on the Delaware event, motoring and canoeing combined. We meet at MINI of Fairfield County in Beautiful Stamford, CT at 7:00 for sign-in and route sheet handouts, and a bathroom break. Leave MINI of Fairfield for New York State at 7:30 sharp. Along the way we'll have scheduled pickups of additional MINIs. Arriving in Pond Eddy, NY roughly 10:00-10:30, on the river by 11:00-11:15. Off the river 13-15 miles later by 4:30, back in our MINIs heading home through Hawk's Nest(an incredible set of twisties on route 97) by 5:00. The river is gorgeous, warm, clean. Great for swimming and picnicing. Casual rapids entertain and thrill you, hopefully without dumping you in the water! Carving a turn in your canoe takes as much skill as driving a MINI. A cocktail or two is fine on the water, but no glass bottles, and don't overdo it before getting back in your MINI. Designated drivers are a good idea, or moderation. There's a great rope swing to try, GMINI and Tontobird can attest to the fun that can be had on the river. Cliff diving is also available for the daredevils. I hope to see you on the river with us.
