Greenwood Lake Run
 

I have set up a run to Greenwood Lake. The date is Saturday August 2nd; I will send all the details in the next week or two.

For those of you who did not make the trip last year we take a nice ride up to the Bear Mountain Bridge and down seven lakes drive to Greenwood Lake.

We will be having lunch at Emeralds Point over looking the lake. They have plenty of parking for us. Lunch is $15 per person.

UPDATE:
Folks, I would like to get on the road for our trip to Greenwood Lake no later than 9:30 so that we will arrive at the restaurant between 11 & 11:30. I would like to use Nicks place as our starting point if that is ok with all of you.

Southern State Parkway West to Meadowbrook Parkway North

Bobby,
I'm in northern NJ and would love to join you guys...is there somewhere I can meet up with you en route? I drive up there on occasion with some Porsche clubs and the drive is fantastic!

I would like to join up as well, since the proposed route is pretty much my weekly outing, usually early Saturday or Sunday.
I am near the GWB on the Jersey side, I'll try to be there
cheers

Gentlemen, maybe you can join us when we reach Bear Mountain? from there we will make our way down to the Lake.
Regards,
Bobby

Hey Bobby,

Rick Weber here...I was hoping to join in as I live along your route. Unfortunately, gotta work...gotta buy GAS ya know.

Anyway, I was looking at your directions and I believe that once you exit the Taconic Pkwy headed North...Rte. 202 West is a LEFT at the light at the end of the exit ramp. I believe if you make a right you will be headed East toward Yorktown. I'm not 100% sure of this but I believe I am correct.

Hope you all have a blast and that weather is just like today. Sorry I'll miss it.

Rick

Thanks Rick, I will double check and make the correction. sorry you will miss the run.
