Where are you located? By this weekend, I will definitely post where and when I'm leaving and Long Island people can definitely join up and head in together. I know there are 1-2 Suffolk guys, and 3-4 Queens people, and myself and 2 other guys from Nassau. You're welcome to meet me around central Nassau and head into the city together, but really just make sure you're free that day and can make it to the gathering spot in downtown NYC, where the main caravan will head out from. It should be a good showing....

If we meet up it might have to be around 7-730 am
The ny Caravan is leaving the city @ 830 845 and it should take us 45-1hr to get there depending on traffic.....

That is mad early but i'm up for it....

Any suggestions????

7:30 would be plenty early, at that hour on a sunday, there will be no traffic. Just take the LIE --> BQE --> Williamsburg bridge and you're there (and no tolls for the WB bridge either!)

Migi is in northern Nassau, I'm in central Nassau, Ti and Arnold are in suffolk someplace, so presumably would take the LIE as well....

Suggestion: meet at the gas station at the corner of Glen Cove Road and the LIE service road? It's right off the LIE, and right between me, Migi, and Al (8newbie, I think he's coming)

OK so that's the plan. For anyone who wants to caravan in together, meet before 7:30 AM on Sunday, at the gas station on the corner of Glen Cove Road and the LIE service road (technically called "Old Westbury Road"). It's immediately after you get off LI Expressway exit 39. It should only take 30-40 minutes to get from there to the spot in the city.

Here's the Glen Cove Road location:

Looks like myself, Migi, 8newbie, and heyarnold will be there... confirmation from Rotativo, Gambean, Jayar, etc? I'm guessing Ti will have to meet us in the city and take another route, because he has to stop down by JFK.

Click street view and you can see the gas station(go north).

So this is it right? At around 7am, Then from her we will head up to the NYC meet, Then too the JC meet, am I clear?

Yup, that's exactly right. I'll bring some printed directions if anyone needs them.

Sweet, so we will def have 5-6 cars from Long Island. Glad to see Rotavio and Speedfreek, I don't think I've met you guys before. Oh, and my cell is if anyone gets lost or anything. Annnnd please don't call before 7AM, thank you...

Ti - yeah I think we will just meet you at the NYC spot by/before 8:30. Then we go with the group right to dunkin donuts in jersey. Then to the group in jersey off of 81. and THEN finally to rotorjam! This is gonna be a sick caravan :-)

-Andrew
