Vermont Scenic Drive this Saturday June 14th

I am organizing a Scenic Drive this Saturday in Vermont. I'd like to
send an invite out to the New England Area Rx-8 Owners to join us. Here are the details:

Vermont scenic drive next Saturday... June 14th. Organized by the New
England Area Lotus Owners.

There will be two meeting spots set up. For Boston North we will be
meeting at the Hooksett, NH Rest Stop RTE 93 North... at 9:00am. Looking for
a 9:15
departure.

For Western, MA and CT we will be meeting at the Quechee Gorge Visitors
Center in Quechee, VT at 10:30 for a 10:45/11:00am departure on the scenic
drive. Quechee Gorge is the first exit off of Rte 89 in Vermont. So Western,
MA and CT folks can take Rte 91 North to Rte 89 and get off at Exit 1.

We will follow Rte 12 to Rte 107 west to Rte 100 North. There is a nice
lunch Spot on Rte 107. We should be eating around 12 noon.

The Ride along Rte 100 will end at Ben n' Jerry's Ice Cream Factory in
Waterbury, VT. The scenic Drive is approximately 2 hours from Quechee to
Waterbury. Ben and Jerry's offers Factory Tours if your interested, if
you haven't done it it's worth the 3 dollars admission. If you have
done the tour you may decide to do it again to extend your rest time
before we break up and head for home.

It's a great ride, beautiful countryside. On Rte 100 we will be
traveling along a small river with hills and/or green mountains on each
side. Twisting Roads, dairy farms, light traffic and no speed traps.

Reply here if your interested of send an e-mail to me direct jefftorrey@comcast.net
I'll add you to the list.

Thanks,- Jeff

That is a nice area... And the B+J tour is worth it, last I knew you got a little bit of free ice cream too. There is also a Cabot factory nearby... They were both stops on my post sugarbush days when cash was at a minimum and free food went over well...

It's been a few years since I've been in that neck of the woods however...
