There are a few of us in NH and MA who have gotten together once during September. I'll probably be organizing another meet in February. You guys should plan on coming.

I would like to meet and greet . Sundays are OK with me.
Weather is also a factor. Manchester is 3 hour drive
in good weather
If you can post the day and time well in advance it would be
helpful for me.

Poohbah,

If you would be coming down I-89 we could meet up in Lebanon, NH and drive down to the meet together.

When we have more details I'll start a new thread in the NE Forum to keep everyone informed. Let's hope for good weather.

Good to see more people from New England popping up. The last meet was awesome. You can check out some more pics at http://www.justindotcom.com. I am actually going to be in Vermont this weekend skiing. Staying in Burlington at the Sheraton and skiing at Sugarbush and Stowe. If any of you guys are close we should do a dinner meet or something.

Normally it would be nice if everyone could stay at the same motel (ie. conveniece & group discount) but seeing that is the F-1 weekend I know that it might be a challenge to find several rooms available at the same place. If you are familiar with Montreal and can recommend a couple of places to stay that would help out a lot. Also if you can post a link of where to buy the F-1 tickets it will make it a little easier for everyone to find the info they need to make their reservations. Thanks!

Here are pictures from last year.(not mine)
http://www.hugobarra.com/photo_album...ula_1_Montreal
Hotel or motel within 50 miles of the race Hard to find and expensive $300 to 400 per night and 4 night minimum.(in the city)
I stay in NY State on the border with Canada (35 miles to track)
Rouses Point is a town of 1500.Motel is $60.00 per night.
I will post phone #s and Mailing address for tickets
(buying f1 tickets online is more expensive)

This a link for a tour Company but it has good Information.
