Upstate NY Fall Foliage Drive ...October 2019
Upstate NY Fall Foliage Drive ...October 2019
Is there any interest in a get together to enjoy the Fall Colors that Western NY roads offer ?? I am just outside Rochester and would be willing to organize an event or join up with existing meet. This thread could also capture names and addresses from this part of the country. I’m a first time Crossfire owner (2004) and new to this site which is a great place for questions and answers. I’m amazed at the friendliness of all and the willingness to provide reassuring words to calm the fears of us newcomers !

Hey Joe;
This is great that you are willing to put something together and share your home. Fall is our favourite time of the year. We are looking forward to it.
Isabell and John Kovats
05 yellow roadster
Congrats Kovats, you are room #3
........that fills up our home.
Maybe we can get some Crossfires local to Rochester to host drive ins from outside the area......any and all suggestions for this event are welcome.

Hi Joe.I know this year has been crazy,but i was wondering if you had anything in the works for fall this year?I'm a little east of Syracuse;the mrs. and i would make the trip out.My daughter goes to University of Buffalo(if they let the kids go back)so we'd kill two birds with one stone.

Loudrango, I think it’s a great idea !
Let’s plan it.........knowing it may get cancelled from whatever conditions may be in 3 months.
its a foliage tour so the date has to be mid to late October. Once we set the date and the colors don’t cooperate...we can make it a wine tour, or a call it a scavenger hunt.....maybe a Grand Prix with a run thru Downtown Watkins Glen like they did in the early 50’s.
it’s all really an excuse, isn’t it ?
what do you think ?

Re: Upstate NY Fall Foliage Drive ...October 2019
I’m thinking an 8AM Meet and Greet Breakfast at our home discussing our day with maps and times. Leaving at 9AM, taking 55mi scenic drive down Canandaigua Lake and then SE towards.......
10:30 Hammondsport....... Motorcycle and aviation pioneer, Glenn Curtiss Museum. Antique Boat Museum, quaint downtown shopping and antiques, & major Wineries galore. Then 20 mi East to
2:00 Watkins Glen.....going over original race which goes thru downtown and western hillsides thru farmland and woods. Downtown shopping, Watkins Glen International, andWatkinsGlen State Park.....waterfalls and gorges that are sure to amaze anyone.
5:00 depart for 65 mi. Scenic ride back to starting point.
This is just a suggestion for a 1 day trip. Good selection of places to eat along any section. Can easily absorb more thing in other areas to see if people want a 2 day.

I'd suggest you copy your first post here to a new post and change dates/etc. Moving posts from one thread to another gets messy as the forum software sorts by date and there is no way around that.
That means ANY posts we move from this thread to the new one would display in the thread BEFORE you opening post. Your only option is to copy text from posts here and create new posts there with the copied text.
