March CAM Meet

[MyTMerc]

CAM'rs,
Gordon's is a busy guy so I'll post the info for this month's meet. Next Sunday is Chris and Gordon's only available day this month.

As many of you know some folks wanted to try some different places. Keep in mind, with as spread out as we are, we all will have a little bit of a drive no matter where we go. Considering what we all drive, that should be a nice Sunday drive and shouldn't be that bad. Bert's is a great little place I think you'll enjoy. With appetizers called "Four on the floor", "Hub Cap Nachos", the "Flat Tire", it's a good place for car nuts. Here's the info:

Where:
Bert's 50's Diner
28760 Three Notch Road, Mechanicsville, MD 20659.

(Three Notch Road is also known as Route 5)
I wrote directions from every point on the compass. Please email or PM me. If you send me your email and I'll send them as a Word attachment. donnellysk@gmpexpress.net


When:
Sunday
13 March 2005
2pm (1400)

Bert's is on the north bound lane of Route 5. There's a turn off directly at the entrance from the south lane.

Congratulations on your new ride, and a hearty "WELCOME" to William (BIGHOUSE).
Thanks for joining us at Bert's!
Let the modifications begin....

Hey Gordon, let me know if you want any help in mounting your new 'hood ornament'.... :rofl:

Too bad that yellow RT/10 Viper turned south instead of north....I guess that Shaun 'dispatched' him.... ;)

[Bluerauder]

Got home safe in @ 1-1/2 hrs. It was great to see everyone again.

Made it back home in 1 hour - 26 minutes after getting hung in traffic at the Springfield Interchange :mad: I dumped off and used Route 1 South for the rest of the trip.

Joe that's a 'Hood Oinkament'. Worth at least another 20hp with the wings. :rofl: (pics to follow in the Bert's Thread).

Arrived home safe last night after a slight detour, caught back up with the main group where 301 and 5 split. Don't argue with the co-pilot, the co-pilot is always right. :rolleyes: J/K.

It took a little over an hour as the 'Black Bomber' flys.
