March 23: NELOC SE Caravan to NY Meet N Greet
Hey NELOC SE (MD/DC/VA),
Who wants to run up to NYC on Saturday the 23rd to meet NELOC NE? We'd meet about 9am, grab a quick bite to eat, and then will be on the road by 10am (times can be adjusted). We'd probably leave NY/NJ around 5, and get back around 9pm or so.
If you're thinking about going, post up. I'm going to try to make it.
NELOC caravans are the best. Rolling Lexuses is just a thrilling site. So, the more, the merrier. All Lexuses are invited (and well-kept Toyotas too ). And if an occasional Acura or Bimmer or Mercedes or Audi wants to join us, we won't complain.
Possible rest stops to pick up NELOCers:
Maryland House I95 in Harford County in the median
Delaware Rest Stop on I95 in the median
NJ Turnpike Northbound Rest Area between Exits 1 & 2
NJ Turnpike Northbound Rest Area between Exits 4 & 5

Hmmm....
Thanks for trying to accomodate the Southerners, Kut....but honestly, I am not sure how the turnout will be from the South. So I'd hate to move a NYC meet to South Jersey, and then only 3 or 4 cars show up from the South (hec, I'm not even a definite myself yet). That's not fair to a NELOC North Meet&Greet.
And AC is still 3 hours away from the Baltimore area....so whether we go to North Jersey or AC, it's around 3 hours (though there is inherently more tolls when heading into NYC).
So I hesitate on 2 weeks notice moving the location this far south just for us. But we appreciate the thought.
Yet on that note, let's plan a bonafide North meets South meet in AC or the Philly area later on in the summer. With plenty of notice, it could be a helluva NELOC meet.

Let's do a sweeping caravan. Each meet up point would be any of the large rest areas along I-95. Then the furthest south starts the caravan stopping at each rest area designated and all roll together to the next one. Then we can meet up at the first large DE rest area as a whole before the longer trip and go from there.
I'm in on a caravan if I can go.

Don't stress it that much on the EZ pass if you don't have it.
I do know you can purchase per-paid EZ at some rest stops.

Good question.
I was kind of waiting to see who was coming from where....but maybe the Arundel Mills Mall area would be fairly central, maybe at the Chick-Fil-A. And then we can pick up others along the way if necessary (from Northern MD, Deleware, PA and South Jersey).
