Members in/near Northern NJ: Want to start up a get together/ride

[SteveKuhn]

I didn't exhibit but stopped by to make a donation and grab lunch. Got a couple snapshots from a slightly different perspective. Guess whose Deuce that is.

Nice, did anyone go on the trail ride yesterday or the toys for tots car show? I couldn't make it to either.

 

[Digger09]

Trail ride was great! Nice ride through some back country roads. Jack and Chris had a well planned route and I was surprised to find out that theres a volcano in Sussex county. Hopefully it becomes an annual event.

Location Change: Toys for Tots, Saturday, Oct 4th

I just got a note that the event has been moved to Delazier Field because Memorial Field will be closed due to the incoming weather. Space for parking is very limited, so there's only room for one more Deuce. If you were planning on attending, please contact me and I'll act as a clearing person to assure that the spot will be available.

Right now, Weather.com says that things will be clearing out around the start at 3 p.m.

Thanks.

Steve

Hi - neither GPS or MapQuest know Delazier Field in Bloomingdale. Could you post coordinates of visitor parking area or a nearby street? I don't have anything to exhibit. Am interested in seeing what others have, meeting SS members. 3pm.

OK, here you go:

The directions are 287 to exit 53 "Bloomingdale / Pompton Lakes......
At the exit take the Hamburg turnpike (Also known as Main Street) to Union Ave (about two miles); crossing R/R tracks....................
look for Union Ave (Bank and gas station on the right with a small strip mall & D& D on the right...........
Right turn on Union Ave...........
Pass Hamilton Street, Orchard Street.....

Parking is anyplace you can find it on local streets. Be prepared to walk a couple of blocks. Make sure to introduce yourself and don't be surprised if they put you to work collecting toys and saying, "Thanks!".

Looking forward to meeting you.

It was great that you came and spent some time getting acquainted. I posted some more photos in the Toys for Tots 2014 thread:

Bergen Harley Davidson - Nov 8th Military Appreciation Day

They told us a couple of months ago that they've been wanting to do this for a couple of years. I suspect that now that they have some MVs showing up, they got it off the ground.

Hope to see more SSers there this time joining the usual suspects even though it's just a few days before the NYC parade.

mmmmmmm. CHILI!!!!!

Just a bump for anyone who might have missed tomorrow's display noon - 5-ish at Harley-Davidson off Route 17. Flyer is above. Hope to see some new (and old) faces.
