Fall Foliage Tour to Longacre's and Back

When -                 Saturday AND Sunday October 10,11 2020

                         Saturday   Meet: 9:00 (small parking lot, I don't want to loiter)

                            Drivers' Meeting: 9:15 a.m.

                            Depart:  9:20a.m. 

Sunday!!!  We will meet and leave an hour later than Saturday since Longacre's changed their Sunday hours to 1:00 opening

Sunday meet at 10:00 Driver Meeting 10:15 Rollout 10:20

Where -                Wawa Bethlehem

                            741 E. Broad St  (E. Broad St. & Stefko Blvd.)

                            Bethlehem, PA Location

Event Leaders -  Louie Draxler and Walter Cramer

We will be joined on the Sunday Drive by our friends from Lehigh Valley Mini. Not to be confused with PhillyMini. This is a truly Lehigh Valley M&M Drive. We hope to have a lot of Fall Fun together!!

PLEASE NOTE: UPDATE!!! THERE IS ONE COMFORT STOP 20 MILES INTO THE 70 TRIP.  After our ice cream, you can either wave goodbye, or head back into the Valley with Corrina and I. If so, we will be heading back on a 29 mile drive that ends at LCCC in Schnecksville, on Rte 309.  4 miles south on 309 is the 22/78 interchange.

 

We will be leaving Wawa and going over the mountain, hooking up with Vera Cruz Road and moving on some roads less traveled.  I have tried to incorporate a lot of roads that often get overlooked because we tend to use certain roads in this area for good reason. They are good roads.  But the Brit in me looks longingly at those B Roads, this time saying, "Right! Let's have a go, then!"

Please note: We will stop at at a Redners quick stop before Longacres. This will be a comfort stop. Longacres is open at 10:00 on Saturday and 1:00 on Sunday. Sunday will have us leaving an hour later than Saturday to accommodate.

 

This event will follow the current Pennsylvania rules for COVID-19 safety.  We will require that all participants maintain six-foot social distancing, and we will require masks to be worn when not in our cars (or stuffing our faces with ice cream).  To avoid common handling of materials, we will email the directions to participants, for home printing, and we will eliminate the usual paper sign-in sheet.  Since the sign-in confirms your agreement with LVMOC’s standard Waiver and Release, we will now consider your post to this event thread, indicating that you intend to participate, to be your “electronic” signature, indicating your agreement with said Waiver and Release (copy available on request).

This drive will be limited to 26 cars, including the leaders, with priority given to paid LVMOC membersWE HAVE TWO LEADERS, AND THEREFORE, TWO GROUPS EACH DAY.

We will use FRS radios for communications.  Be sure to arrive by 9:00 a.m. with a full gas tank and an empty bladder. Or, with enough time to fill your tank, and empty your bladder.

Alexander, I also hope you are able to make the Drive on the 24th - you'll enjoy it. And it is always nice to have that Anniversary Edition "Orange" in the group.

Also, pencil in Sunday, October 25th, I hope to be leading a Pocono Fall Foliage Drive. It is going to have some interesting highlights in the Drive.

Nice! Would love to see the anniversary edition in person. Have only seen on YouTube so far. Never in person.

You will love it for sure. Alexander is very proud of it. Although it saddens him he does not have a garage in the City to store it. Even so, she's a beauty. Let's hope his schedule allows he and his friend to join us.

I saw the 30AE in person up in CT a few weeks ago....absolutely stunning in person!

It would be great if Alexander can make it on the 24th!  With Walter's BRG, Jordan's SRC, Ken's Vivid Yellow and Alexander's Racing Orange, the Miatae on the road will match the colors of the leaves!
