2006 Foliage Run
What: Foliage run.
Where: Southern meet up Crowne Plaza exit 8 Nashua. Northern meet-up Gretch's compound*
When: September 30th ~11:00AM
Not going to make this one too complicated. We’re going to run through the White Mountains again. Weather is looking like an early season, hence the 30th, I’ve already seen trees turning up North.
For those of us south of the Arctic circle we'll meet at the Crown Plaza in Nashua. Take Exit 8 on Rte 3, you can't miss it. For the Eskimos who don't want to travel down to Nashua, meet at Gretch's compound*. We'll leave the Crowne Plaza around 12:30 and head North obeying all speed limits and traffic rules of course. We’ll go to Gretch’s compound to meet up with the Eskimos.
Once at Gretch's we'll organize, check fluids (both in the car and in the Stomach), then head out for a few miles of watching leaves and watching out for Smokey.
* For those that are planning on coming RSVP me at foliage_run@sidv.org I'll get you directions to the Gretch compound if you need it, and my cell phone for emergency contact on the day.

JUst had a thought to induce people to come. Inspiration came from this thread https://rennlist.com/forums/off-topic/297422-top-gear-fans-top-gear-ultimate-driving-experience-soundtrack-download-here.html
Daredevil and I have 53 Top Gear Episodes dating back to 11-2-2003 of varying quality, newest episodes being better quality. THese are the British versions, not the crappy Discovery channel versions.
So for all those attending the Foliage Run, if you bring a portable hard drive or a laptop with enough space (You'll need ~ 18 Gb) while we are all standing around Jaw-Jacking Daredevil and I can transfer the episodes to you. Me doing it at the southern gathering, and Daredevil doing it at the Norhtern Gathering.
Obviously no money can change hands for this, but donations of beverages will be greatly appreciated.
MORE POWER!
PS I just volunreered Daredevil for this, the surprise on his face when he reads this will be classic. Wish I could see it.

First group meets in Nashua, then travels to Gretch's
As far as places to meet up. If you live in between it's probably better to meet at Gretch's.
The run from Nashua to his place is up 3/93, stopping at various places will turn it into a two day event.
But since your in Cape Cod I assume, Nashua isn't far out of your way to stop on the way up.

Okay lets go for a ride. A lot of guys said they would like to go so lets get it organized. There are some nice roads leading up to the north country and even a big loop can be done in 2/3rds of a day. We did something similar a couple years back and had some fun. I rather here about radar detectors and radios, than video's. I have also gone on a ride with Mr. Vicious and we had a great day. So lets see some nice scenery.

I touched base with him about this effort getting out of the gate first and, at his suggestion, pasted the text from the first posting into a message to the subscribers to the Owner's Club New England Region listserv.
