Father's Day Morning Meet & Cruise in Annapolis

[KevinGS]

This will be the general route we'll be taking:
https://www.google.com/maps/dir/1+Do...38.6199353!3e0

Key stops will be:
1. Churchton, Bayview Parkway, for some pix
2. North Beach, Bay Avenue, for some pix
3. Breezy Point Rd, for some pix

It will be a challenge to stay together, especially coming from Downtown and getting past Edgewater. There will be some traffic and quite a few lights. But let's try to stay together. If we do get separated early on, it's OK, because the 2 stops for Yellowfin Steak and Fish House and All Hallows Episcopal Church are just optional stops to meet to re-gather, stopping only if necessary. We may get separated later along the journey as well, and if so, we'll find optimal places to pull into to re-gather. The Zello app will be key, because we can all chat with each other and stay informed of each other's whereabouts in Real Time.

This will be fun cruise, that will be hampered a bit with Sunday late morning traffic. But it'll be nice nonetheless. Hopefully the places for pix will be decent...and hoping that we can find some parking together.

Gas up before you arrive if we can.

We'll start to lineup about 9am, and will be leaving about 9:30am from the Annapolis C&C.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The next Meet & Cruise may be on Saturday June 30th, leaving from Hunt Valley, though that may be a 730am – 10am cruise, arriving at Hunt Valley C&C about 10am.

And other MD and VA members are already talking about a day-long Fall cruise for M cars in the hills of Virginia off I-66….leaving at 7am, and returning home at 7pm. Plus, the NoVa M's want to get together with the MD M's as well, maybe a cruise from Katie's Cars & Coffee one Saturday.
Stay tuned.

Thus, we will meet at Annapolis Cars & Coffee (C&C), hang for a bit, and THEN cruise. If you want to park and hang with us, you likely want to arrive between 730 and 8am at the C&C. At 915am, we’ll start preparing to leave, and will roll out from the C&C at 945am or so. We’ll snake through Anne Arundel County, stopping in a few towns along the water for pictures. Since it’s Father’s Day, I need to be finished by Noon…so we’ll be together for about 2 hours or so. The Annapolis C&C is at 1 Dock Street Annapolis, MD (City Dock).

Download the Zello app. We’ll coordinate Sunday morning at the C&C.

I'll be at Annapolis C&C bright and early!!
Can you post the route for the cruise?

Thanks in Advance!

Sounds great, look forward to seeing you and the M.

And I wish I knew the route myself. I still need to investigate.

I won't know until Saturday, when I have time to sort it out....but it will be through Southern Anne Arundel County on back roads, through some water-front towns where we can take pictures. There won't be a lot of twists & turns, but it could be rather scenic. We'll see.... Just keep your expectations low. LOL This one will be more about the stream of Ms rolling together than the amazing roads.

Sounds good. It will be low key, yet still fun.

[KevinGS]

Well, that was fun.

Until next time.....which may be on Saturday the 30th, from the Hunt Valley Cars & Coffee.

May meet at 7am, and then drive for a few hours before heading to the event.

And it sounds like a day-long cruise out into the hills of Virginia or Western MD is preferred, so stay tuned, maybe one day in August. Definitely in the fall, in October.

Still mad about that biker and the water bottle when I think about it.

Glad you showed restraint...

More Meets & Drives will be set up soon, so stay tuned.

Definitely, bb, stay tuned. Maybe on Saturday the 30th, early in the morning, in the Hunt Valley area.

And we'll do it again out of Annapolis in July at some point.
