Default 928 Frenzy 20 Convoy: THURSDAY for New England, E. NY, E. PA, LI, & NJ

Collected the following from the Frenzy 20 thread:

Assuming we want to carry over the 4pm stop from last year, we have the following Check Points & Times:
  • Wallingford, CT @ 10am.
  • Allentown, PA @ 1pm
  • Sheetz in Dillsburg, PA @ 4pm

I'll be leaving Wilkes-Barre around 1130am, heading south on the turnpike for the Allentown checkpoint. If anyone is heading that way, it would be great to link up, maybe at the mile 115 exchange, which is Wilkes-Barre.

Did you pick a restaurant in Allentown, yet?

Tony will not be meeting up with me in CT, instead, he's flying up to Dulles on Thursday. That being said, I will be leaving much earlier to avoid traffic in both Hartford and Waterbury, CT on Int 84.

I probably will be getting to the Harrisburg area around 12-1 on thursday.

So, you'll be going past me around 10-11am. I'm about 15 minutes off 81 between Scranton and Wilkes-Barre. If Thom and Pete are still on for lunch in Allentown, do you want to meet me at my place and head down to Allentown for lunch? If they aren't, I'll join you and we can look for lunch in Lancaster County before heading to Dillsburg.

The drive from Allentown to Dillsburg is a little under 2 hours, so meet at 1pm, on the road by 2pm to make Dillsburg by 4? Might want to push the Allentown meet to 12 or 12:30 to make Dillsburg by 4pm.

It occurs to me that this sounds a little crazy, but two things in my defense:
  • I'm a career Soldier, so organizing movements is a thing for me.
  • I'm really excited about Frenzy!

If you guys are figuring on Allentown for lunch, a new restaurant just opened up, BJ's Brewhouse. Good food and beers and just off RT. 78. Address is 665 N. Krocks Rd., Allentown, PA 18106. If we get a head count I get a table set up for the group.

Time to bring this back up, one week away!
The Thursday convoy to frenzy is planning on making a stop in Allentown for lunch.
Please let me know who plans on stopping for lunch, 12PM? and I can get us a table set up at BJ's Brewhouse.
Here is who I believe showed an interest so far:

I'll be there. I'm heading down to NJ Wednesday to my sisters in Montville, right off 287/80/46 interchange. I'll be leaving from Montville heading down 287 then 78 Thursday morning. Anyone else going that way?

I will be there for introduction and lunch. Looking forward to meeting up. A coworker (944 original owner, I believe) may join me (he has an affection for 928's, as his father owned an '87 5-speed!).

That's a completely different conversation! I think last year a bunch of people went to Udvar-Hazy.

I made reservation today at BJs Brewhouse 11 people at 12 noon. (Actually 10 people have responded so far, gives us a little more elbow room), with 5 or 6 cars in attendance.
