No specific plans yet. I am open to ideas. 601 is always fun.

I'm up for anything. What time and where? I am very familiar with 601. Use to live on it just across Clarke Cnty line on the left off of 7. Fun road going over to 50.

Unfortunately, no. Work gets in the way of my Viper time.
If anybody wants to go Sunday, maybe we could meet up somewhere (Ferrari of Washington seems to work well) and roll out to 601 and maybe on to Winchester for lunch (Sonic?). I am terrible with logistics so if anyone has any better ideas let me know. I am not an early bird either, so if you guys with kids want to do the Easter egg thing and go later I am cool with that too.
John, any suggestions? I just want to hang out and play with Vipers.

Here's my cruise route idea. Follow along with your google map gents... I may be available Sat. Hard to tell at this point.
Take rt66w to rt55 at Gainsville or 50 to 15s if leaving from FOW,
Rt55w. to Front Royal via. The Plains,
Rt340s to SR619 (Rivermont Dr.) to SR678 (Fort Valley Rd),
Fort Valley south (this a great road for sports cars) turns into Rt 675 and has possible sand/small gravel? as it passes over the ridge toward Luray,
... Stop at overlook for BS session..
Take Rt 211 east over the mountain and on to Warrenton... and home via. your road of choice....
Food/gas in Front Royal, Luray, Warrenton...
This may be a bit long for some people. I never counted the miles but it takes 2.5 to 3 hours from my place in Fairfax.

I'm also up for little cruise around the block if you'd like to setup a meeting time somewhere.

Must be nice to be in an area where people actually drive their cars!

Alright.... you guys want to say 11am on Sunday at FoW? Maybe follow jdeft's route or some variation thereof?

Come on up!
I'm in the Navy and due to my current job requirement this weekend and pretty much any good weather weekend or car show weekend or weekend in general this year has been set up for us to work. Found out yesterday I will miss every major event this year except Carlisle and being that its in PA that makes it sketchy that I will be there.

Thanks for your service.
By the way I would be happy to take your car to any event you want it to attend....

Just wanted to point out your request and how happy it would make for you to drive a Yellow Viper

John, I guess that means not much Jenro's this year?

Ha, I wish. I just got my underway schedule for the year a couple days ago. It is the biggest joke I have ever seen. Just short of going out 6 months straight I am doing a full year deployment, it is insane.

Umm, What's Jenro's?
Back to topic.
I'd like to suggest a different meeting point if you'd like to follow my route. I know that FoW is the usual meetup spot but we may enjoy a change this time. Let's meet at the Sheetz in Haymarket, VA. at 11:00am. It's right off Rt.66 at the Rt. 15 exit, about 4-5 miles west of Manassas for those who don't know and easy to get to. Gas, food, coffee can be found there and it's a good spot to head out into western NoVA along Rt. 55. This is the perfect jumping off point for my adventure and puts us in Front Royal at lunch time...
This is just a suggestion..
Who's in?!??

So that's 2 maybe 3 of us by my count...so far.
Let's plan to meet at Sheetz in Haymarket and head out from there!

Will be there. But why Front Royal? Weren't we originally going to end up in Winchester?

Jenro's is a local restaurant that caters to car clubs. Since the 70's car enthusiasts have been going out there on Saturdays. The downside is the abundance of corvettes and mustangs but the upside is there are many great classic cars that show up out there. Very few high end cars.

The Fredericksburg gang will be out Saturday doing our normal lunch. Probably at ******* this week if anyone interested. Likely time is 1 pm but PM if you might come.
As for Sunday I will definitely be out. I'll try to head up that way and meet you guys, but no guarantees. Don't wait up for me unless I give you something more firm. An address might get me there sooner too.

The more the merrier. I would cruise down to Fredricksburg for lunch any time. You guys meet every Saturday? Let us NoVa guys know!

I'm thinking along the lines of a cruise not lunch necessarily.. Front Royal has a few spots for sit down lunch but I usually stop in at Subway for a sandwich to go then head out to Fort Valley for a fun ride, but then, It's usually just me and the wife. Looks like a small group so we can figure it out as we go.
