Default Rennlist Fall Drive 2013 - vote for dates

It's that time of year again! Let's have a vote for dates:

Saturday Oct. 26 (raindate Sunday Oct. 27)
Saturday Nov. 2 (raindate Sunday Nov. 3)

You can vote for both dates, if both dates work for you. I don't need numbers yet (i.e. me + spouse), just dates.

My car is stored by November.
Thank you!

Two issues impacts the drive, well actually three. First are Fall festival events that typically end mid month, second is the weather, and requires a rain date and third is the popularity of the event. Organizing a ride for twenty to thirty cars in close convoy requires some attention.

September is too early for a fall drive - the weather is still summer, and the trees don't turn until mid October at the earliest. I'm not available the other weekends in October, so if I'm organizing it, I can't do it any other weekend. If someone else wants to take the reigns and do it on a different October weekend, that's fine by me.

November works for me. Will be on the Autobahn on those dates in October.

Christien, will this be a wife / girlfriend / mistress friendly event?

Even in November the weather should still be solid, and it is mid fall technically. On average the temperature typically varies from 6°C to 10°C and is rarely below 3°C or above 14°C.

From where to where do we drive? Where do we meet? Sounds like great idea if within range. Thanks for volunteering.
