Cruisin' the Curves with The Bull - July 4th - MD

I'm currently working on several tours that will be upcoming over the next few months... Some PCA affiliated and some for the Rennlist crazies... On Weds, July 4th, I'm going to cruise the curves with a small group of MOTIVATED people... I'll post specifics tomorrow... I'm only taking 10-15 cars on this cruise...

Where is this cruise taking place?

ONLY TAKING 10 CARS MUST PM ME or RESPOND THIS THREAD Meeting Time: 8-9am Departure: 9:00am Meeting Place: McDonalds at the corner of Old Camp Rd. and West Patrick Street (Rt 40) in Frederick... Directions: Take I-70 West to Exit 49 (Braddock Heights/Middletown)... Turn RIGHT on Alt 40 to OLD CAMP RD... Turn LEFT on OLD CAMP RD. You will see Micky D's.... Route: We will travel all 3 watersheds: Frederick, Catoctin & Emmitsburg

Looks like a beautiful morning tomorrow... See those participating at the meeting place between 8-9:00am... The run should take about 2 hours plus a short pitstop...

Should be funny especially since there will be no traffic on the roads.

Okay, so when I think about driving 350 miles (round trip) to participate in an 80 mile fun run, it sounds crazy. But it was really worth it. This may have been Bull's best of the year. The reasons: 1) very challenging roads, 2) the small number of participants (limited to nine), 3) the quick pace, and 4) an enjoyable lunch at the end with all attending. I would have also mentioned "the scenery" as a reason, but we had to concentrate on driving so much that it was hard to look around at any of it! Oh, did I mention the challenging roads? There was, surprisingly, alot of variety among the cars, as 7 Porsches, 1 BMW, and 1 Mini arrived early, showing that they were motivated. Porsche models included 2 928s, 1 964 cabriolet, 1 Boxster, 2 993s, and 1 996. The BMW was an M3, which distinguished itself admirably. The Mini fell back somewhat whenever the faster cars jumped on it, but was able to stick to the pack like glue during the curves. A good day, a good bunch of guys, a good event, and I'm still smiling. Thanks, Bull.

You're welcome... It was a GREAT day I too still have an ear to ear grin... It certainly made having to go back to work in the middle of the week a lot easier... I bet we all got caught on tape as we blew past the entance to Camp David and Trout Run (the Presidential Fishing Retreat) I'd like to thank all my Beta Testers for testing the route for the upcoming "Maryland Watershed Tour" for the PCA... What's next you ask??? Well, when I'm finished up with the route for "The Battle of Gettysburg" tour, we will all get together again for a blast down the back roads to Gettysburg... The way to Gettysburg will follow the Union route to Gettysburg... We will then have a nice stop in Gettysburg and follow the Confederate Retreat route back home... Thanks again...

I drove the "Battle of Gettysburg" tour route yesterday... I need to add some more time and twisties and we will be ready to go... This run is a bit longer because it's a 2-part tour with a fantastic lunch in the middle... I'll probably end the tour at an ice cream place around Frederick...
