Although I have no chance of going, I go to Lake Placid every summer. The roads are amazing - some tight and curvy, most with some curves and some straights. Well paved, too, but quattro helps deal with that anyway. The town is a great place, too. Great dining, too, especially at the golf clubs bec:) I'd highly recommend Lake Placid.

I am shure Finnus wouldnt, mind i think he lives up state. I think most of us would not be able to make it that far. Maybe we can do it in Kingston like last spring meet. Is that too far for you?

Last spring meet was shure alot of fun i hope we can get something together and do it again.

...I'm in.

Just a suggestion, but maybe start out somewhat early on a Sat or Sun for those who need to make it back for any evening plans they may have.

While I love Lake Placid as much as the next guy, perhaps something further south along the lines of the Kingston meeting last time would allow more people to attend.

It would be great if we got many here and on the RS6 board over at audiworld.com to make it.

How about a sunday in May? Maybe the 8th. I think kingston (where we had it last time ) Is a good idea.

Hopefully everyone that was there last time can attend. Sprint Blue,Btumble, finnus, speedracer, Robert V.

Here is a link for last spring meet.

Not only are the roads fun around Lake Placid, the scenery in the High Peaks area of the Adirondaks is pretty spectacular.

Sorry didnt know it was mothers day. So maybe may 15?

Lake placid would be nice but i dont know how many people would be able to show up. I think only finnus is close enough. I dont think my dad and i will be able to make it so far. But what ever is best for everyone. If most people dont mind going that far then make it in lake placid.

And Aronis ... I knew it was too good to be true. LOL

That ride we went on last year near Kingston was a blast ... whoever designed it has my vote for selecting this year's ride.

RobertV and speedracer. We have to contact them somehow. It was a great ride.

We can compromise a little farther upstate another 50 miles or so. Any suggestions for a nice place a little farther north?

The roads between between Oneonta and Utica, around Cooperstown, seem pretty good, but I've only traveled them once and do not know the area that well to fully back up what I just said...

RobertV
April 22nd, 2005, 12:13
I still have both the Kingston and modified Cliff's route (Bear Mt area close to West Point) maps and turn by turn sheets.
Mother's day is out for me too.
There are some great roads up north by Lake George, but I do not remember them that well (I lived in Albany 15 yrs ago.)
I'll give Speed a call and have him and his son chime in.

April 22nd, 2005, 15:43
hey hows it going guys? This sounds like fun and hopefully it wont get rained out like the last little meet we had. The route around bear mt and 7 lakes drive is really nice but i think it would be too far for guys like finnus. My WRX will be finally be tuned hopefully by later this week but deff by this meet so it will be fun. Would you guys want some STi's or fast WRXs to show up?

nyrs6
April 22nd, 2005, 19:15
So How does Sunday May 15 Sound to everybody?

April 23rd, 2005, 04:44
what time?
and is it gonna be at bearmtn again?

nyrs6
April 26th, 2005, 17:01
Kingston. And the time shouldn't be somewhat early like JA said. Everyone should be able to make other plans so this shouldn't take up a whole day. I say maybe 9:00 Meet and 10: AM Drive?

We need more RS6 Owners. Where is Btumble, Sprint blue, How about You nene? Lets Try to get At least 5 RS6's like last time :addict: Other audis and non audis are welcome of course.

nyrs6
May 5th, 2005, 02:19

incognito
May 5th, 2005, 07:51
it sounds good but sundays is an early day of work for me....yes i know...it SUCKS... have to be in work around 1... not sure how far kingston is from me so i may be limited on the time of driving but i dont care much, would like to see more than 50 audi's in one parking lot....even better, would like to see 50 audis doing double the caution limit...

Kingston

Rain Date obviously will be the following week.

I haven' t been here for a while. I believe I still have a Word file of the route instructions. Email me at naitove@verizon.net and I can send them as a Word file or a .pdf,

Speed

PS I think LUC2XLR8 is planning to make it.

"Place: Exit 19 * Kingston * New York State Thruway

Just after you pay the toll turn right into a parking lot immediately after the traffic circle Sign and before you get onto Route 28. There are 2 lots. The first one is only for state personnel. We will be in the 2nd one and will park a car near the entrance so you can't miss it."

I guess we meet up the same place as last time.

Also someone who knows the area should find a place to eat. I think Robertv would know where.

so we have 7 members.

Nene,JA,silversleepa,fast one,Speedracers son,
incognito and RobertV.

RobertV hope you can come and lead us again. You know the route the best.

May 12th, 2005, 20:49
I am very sorry fellas, but I'll have to skip this one.
I have family arriving this weekend from Maryland, and they won't be heading out until about Wed of next week. I have to do the right thing, and spend it with them. I believe this was the reason I did not make it last year, as it was a last minute decision on their part. Have a good time, and take pix as before.

nyrs6
May 13th, 2005, 02:08
So so far we have fast one, luv2xlr8, silversleepa, JA, incognito, and robertv. Can we get more?

RobertV do you know for shure yet if you can come?

The 5 day is showing scatterd Thunderstorms on sunday but its still too close to tell. Lets hope for the best. Remember if it rains hopefully we can do it the following week.

We need the route from speedracer.

If there is a different date other then next sunday then someone should speak up. If another weekend is better for most people then we will do it another sunday. We need a date thats good for everyone.

I am hoping now more RS6 owners can come.

Ahh... so it looks like the So Cal meet WAS the biggest RS 6 get together after all!

Seriously though, sorry to hear you guys won't be getting together. That's just wrong. You guys were supposed to show us Western Boys how its done.:cry:

nyrs6
May 20th, 2005, 02:39
If people are willing to get together then we will make it. So far only luv2xlr8 and my dad is willing to come so far. 2 people are not enough to make a meet.

Di the Socal meet have more then 5 RS6's, because last meet we had 5 RS6's.
