    A Monadnock meander on Saturday, October 15th.

    Join me for a cruise through the Monadnock region of southern NH. We will gather in the large parking lot near Starbucks in Milford, NH. Please arrive by 9:45 gassed up and ready to go. The rain date is the following day, Sunday, Oct. 16th.The decision regarding rain will be announced Friday at 6pm if needed.
    We will head out at 10:00 for a winding foliage cruise. The route will cover about 80 miles of secondary roads (many freshly paved) A gas and bladder break is planned at the 1 ½ hour mark. With that out of the way it’s on to Kimball’s in Jaffrey, NH for lunch. If you’re coming from the west you’re welcome to head home from there or stay with the pack as we wind our back to the Nashua area.

    Would someone driving a Subaru be welcomed if they're waiting for 818 orders to open up? I can hide in the back.

    Pretty sure the 818 has been discontinued. I don't believe FFR will be taking any new orders.

    Dave Smith has refuted that, though he did say that's one of the possible outcomes. Not really relevant in this thread, though.

    Cobra guy. Do you have any idea on how the turn out will be? I'm about two hours away and don't want to make the trip if nobody's there. Thanks.

    DW,
    It's always hard to guess how many cars will show up. The core group I hang out with is a pretty hardy bunch so I think I can count on 5 or 6 as a minimum. The weather is looking good so I doubt that rain will be an excuse. My wife and I love to drive so we'll go even if it is only 1 other car.

    Just FYI, I injured my foot, so I'm trying to stay off it. I was the odd one out, anyway. Have fun!

    What a great day. We had 11 cobras show up 10 were recreations from an assortment of manufactures. Along with that there was a real honest to God original! Along with that we had an FF5 truck and a lovely yellow Porsche.
    A special thanks to ERA's lovely co-pilot who saved the day by coming up with a great plan-b for lunch. (My spot had closed for the season)Fall cruise 2022.jpg

    Thank you Harvey for putting this ride together. It’s so nice to be on the road with other like minded folks, just doesn’t happen often enough. Again, thanks.
