Thought I'd gauge interest amongst Tri-Staters to meetup for a drive (weather permitting) next Sat 3/23.

As of now, I'm thinking of trying the roads through High Point State Park (NJ) up to Point Jervis (NY), I've heard great things about the "Hawks Nest" section, and back down - possibly trying the Cow Pie Loop.

Looks like a really good road. I think I'll be meeting up with Charlie that day though. :(

No worries, I plan to do the drive regardless so if anyone's up for it - just let me know.

Cheers

Sounds like a lot of fun. If this were closer to me, I'd definitely attend. Unfortunately it looks like you're starting about 3.5 hours away from me. Those roads look great, though! Take some pics to share!

Dammit. I would be in but will likely be out of town.

Also, I did this drive or a drive very similar in the same area back in 2005 with a MINI crew. It was awesome.

Not sure if Sunday will work for me (likely watching the F1 season opener with the NYC F1 meetup group early Sunday morning). But, I'm happy to coordinate another day in April for when it works better for you guys - let me know the date.

Cheers

Didn't want to start a new thread, came across a new BMW Drivers App that helps find good stretches of road...haven't tried it out fully but looks promising:

Regarding the app, I had it on my iPhone. It's 'meh'.
