PLEASE READ: NYC/LI crew that's going to Albany

flarearrow · #1 (**permalink**) 04-25-2003, 01:55 PM

I think it's time to be realistic and decide what are we going to do.

I don't think we can deny the fact that today is friday and the weather report on both Accuweather.com and Weather.com pretty much says heavy rain for the entire day on Saturday.

Chris may have the right idea when he decided to drop out. Caravaning 3+ hours is not the safest thing to do in heavy rain. I don't want someone sliding off the road and winding up in a ditch on the way up to Grafton.

So let's discuss this.

I might be ducking out of this one and onto something else that is planned for the day...

i think rev d should take action seeing as how so many people are dropping out

either modify the meet so that much of it happens indoors or reschedule it or something.

in any case, i'm about to come home from pittsburgh. i figure the NY/LI crew will do something on its own if most of us decide that it's not a good idea to go. we're cool like that

peace out

I'm pretty sure that almost the entire NYC/LI crew that were going up were only planning on doing Sat and not stay over night.

And even though it's suppose to be a 2-day event, I don't think anyone is planning on driving up on Sunday since a lot of us have to work on Monday.

Yeah, as much as i hated to drop out, because i really really wanted to meet alot of people, i get very nervous having to drive in heavy rain for hours and hours. I've done it before and it sucks. I rather be safe and stay home.

IMO, it's too late for rev D to change much. It really sucks this happened, he put so much work into this meet

And yeah, sunday was out of the questionf or me. The only way i was staying overnight was if i crashed at a friends dorm and left early sunday morning to get back here. Too much crap to do before monday.

Oye, what a sucky situation

You missed an awesome meet, and it stopped raining about an hour into it. We did 80-120 the entire 5-hour trip from RI/Mass in the rain, next time suck it up and go!!

Hmm, sorry to say it, but that's pretty smart!

I would never do 70+ in the rain, ever. I don't care how secure i fell in my car.

I didn't say it was smart, I was scared shit, but I will say it was a blast!
