I'm in, I'm in!! FLATBEDFORD just texted me. Sorry, I've been slacking a bit lately and don't get on as much as I'd like.
The Chatterbox is definitly doable for me. I actually feel a little bad because it is so close for me. If we had a line up of 7 trucks in one place, that would be awesome!! Now I can't wait.

[FLATBEDFORD]

How far from you is it John? I am trying ti figure out how far for me. I may have to spend he night at your place.

Honestly?....like I said, I feel a little guilty....it's probably less than 10 miles from my driveway.

Your more than welcome to stay. If Jason gets up at night you could cover for us.

[FLATBEDFORD]

If its that close to you then its about an Hour and 45 mins for me?

[MaxKlinger]

Yeah, the Chatterbox is pretty close to Longbed's house. Admittedly, it's also close to my folks' house, too. That's how I know about the place.

Steve, Your biggest obstacle is the darned Hudson River! Are you closer to the Bear Mountain Bridge or the Tappan Zee? If you cross at the BMB, take the Palisades to NY-17A west. 17A runs into to Warwick, NY, where it bumps into 94. Shoot down 94 and make a right (northwest) on 15. Chatterbox is where 15 crosses US-206. Probably about 65 miles.

Also, just to throw this out there - there is a Drive-in Movie theater in Warwick on Rt 94. It might also be cool if a few Bumpsides backed in at the drive-in one night, too.

Since we haven't decided on dates yet, I'll throw the 11th or the 18th out there. Maybe everyone can check in on wheather or not these dates are good for them.

[FLATBEDFORD]

Should work for me. Maybe go with 11 and save 18 for a rain date?

[MaxKlinger]

Dumb question...11th or 18th of which month?

[FLATBEDFORD]

July. I thought we said that a few pages back. I don't feel like reading them all again. If we plan for August, that won't leave us much time to reschedule if we have to.

[71 LONG BED]

The 11th sounds good to me with the 18th as a rain date. You gunna be able to make it Tony? I hope so.

[drytoast]

Count me in!!!!!!

[71 LONG BED]

I am really looking forward to this now!!! I am trying to think of a nice place to line the trucks up for a group photo. There is a quarry by my house. I'm not sure where they have the gate. I'll have to see if I can get down the entrance road far enough to get a cool back drop for a photo.

[FLATBEDFORD]

We can line them up on your lawn.

[drytoast]

If we go to the quarry and trespass do I need to bring bail money? Just want to be prepared.

[71 LONG BED]

You may want to bring some bail money, you never know....
No, just kidding. I'll make sure it is ok for us to be there, or if we can even get in there. If not I'll try to think of another location. Should be a blast, I can't wait!!
