Default Fall Cruises and Question

Do you ever do runs in Connecticut? Any Fall run/cruises planned? Am I the only one that's named my car?

We did a fall cruise in 2005 that went out Rt. 57 west towards Gt.Barrington then north to RT 2. and back down 91. Had a good time and got quite a few pics. I think I have them in the gallery of the other crossfire site.(same name over there)

We need to discuss this more tm. at the outing. There could be people coming fron NY and around there if we give them enough time to plan.

I named my car Malveria (from the book the lonely werewolf girl)
My motorcycle is Elphaba (from the book Wicked)
and my dog is Leeloo Dallas Multipass (from the fifth element)
(i haven't named my house yet- though i'm thinking "money pit" might be appropriate.

Gal & Beatz,

Sorry you two were tied up this weekend. You missed a good party! We were looking forward to meeting you all!

"Money pit" is definitely appropriate for a house!!

If you read down through the New England threads, you'll find the Fall Cruise thread that was started. We are looking at something in Western Mass in mid to late September.

I'll be starting a thread about a cruise that's close by. I figured a picnic at Goddard State Park in East Greenwich, Rhode Island would be nice. It's a beautiful area and lots of stoves and picnic benches. I'll get a poll going to see if there is an interest for early October.

Goddard State Park sounds good to me. October weather is some of the best of the year as long as the sun is out. Great time of the year for a cookout.

Hmmmmm, I got to see you in leather, chaps and a stetson first. I don't call them cowboys until I've seen them ride!

I've found it difficult to get in my Xfire with chaps and a Stetson on. Unless I have the top down.

BTW, you really don't want to see me ride.

I found it harder to mount a saddle in mine. Sure beats the seat heater. Now if I could only put reins in place of a steering wheel /brake pedal and maybe stirrups or spurs in place of gas pedal. That's what I call optional equipment.

These are mods I've never heard of in a crossfire.
Cowboys (and Cowgals) are always innovative.
Could be fun.
