Steveo..
Nice run dude, brisk pace.. very nice route and I think we only pissed one person off..! The guy behind me in the Honda when I slowed at the intersection after N.Hampshire and waved everyone around me so as not to break-up the group between him and the light!!
I ended-up splittng from the group at Scaggsville Rd, you guys went left, I went right to p/u 95N for pre-scheduled brunch @ Inner Harbor.
Great time & nice catching up with the familiar faces and pleasure meeting the new ones!
Maybe I'll bring a Porsche next time?

Hey Guys. Mary and I had a great time. She's getting "car crazy" too. Beautiful cars. Thanks Steve and Tony for putting the route together. Thanks Steve for getting the word out. Hopefully we can have a few more runs before it gets too cold. Paul, I'm down for a Southern MD run. I'll post my pics when I get them from CVS (I had a disposable camera). It was really nice to meet everyone and see familiar faces as well.
Mary and I went for a ride to Great Falls (GW parkway (VA)and Macarthur Blvd (MD)) after lunch. It was a perfect day. Thanks guys!

Great meeting you two as well. Would like to see those Great Falls pics if you took any. Undoubtedly, mother nature cooperated perfectly on Sunday. We really lucked out in that respect.

I know that area well from when I was a kid in Montgomery Village in the early 70's and my best friend lived in Lakeside. Nice area! When we got to MV I split away from the pack to look around my old neighborhood on Roman Way since I haven't been back there in at least 10 years. It still looks about the same but now the trees are huge.

And yes the trees are huge, but they've recently started removing quite a few of them as they're dying. It's a great place for kids to grow up, play etc. My kids and the neighboring gang have a great time with swim team, riding the paths etc. Just the schools have really change, and we're now a pocket.
