6th annual "Summer Sunrise" drive 6/12, Bucks County PA
****Updated****
Wanted to post this over to my M2 peeps as well... Wanted to open this up to my local M brethren...every 2nd weekend in June for the past 5 years a few of us local gearheads have done an early morning drive to celebrate and usher in the summer driving season. Usually it's just a small group of us that meet about 5:45am and Usually leave about 6:15am and take a nice, sometimes "spirited" drive (on the roadways where is safe to do so) through the Bucks County River country (Delaware River) and then end our drive at a local coffee/bagel shop for a cars and coffee type event. It's a very scenic and picturesque drive and it's awesome that time of the morning to be driving as the sun is coming up (also very little traffic). For those of you who joined on our fall covered bridge tour, the route is very similar, so you know the roads are really fun to drive. I'll be adding the meeting point, route and coffee shop where we finish up for our cars and coffee in the coming weeks, but just wanted to get it out there so you could mark your calenders. Hoping to turn this into an annual "M" event. The rain date is the very next morning, Sunday 6/13. ****Menard Premium Detailing/Gratr Garage in Ivyland PA will be sponsoring the drive and Cars and coffee afterward! They are located at: 125 Industrial Dr, Warminster, PA 18974 The drive and meeting points are as follows: The meeting point is the parking lot in front of the Staples (between Staples and Chik-Fil-A) at: The Newtown Shopping Center 10 West Rd, Newtown PA 18940 This is about 10 mins off the Newtown Exit on I-295. Meeting date/time: Saturday June 12th between 5:45am and 6:15am. Drive begins at 6:20am. The Drive: We will be driving through historic Washington's Crossing PA area and New Hope PA and heading north along the Delaware River to upper Bucks County. Along the way will pass through some small river towns, a few covered bridges and a few nice twisty roads. The plan is to stop at the historic Van Sant Airport in Upper Bucks for a group photograph of all the cars with the airfield and planes in the background. After stopping at Van Sant, a few more twisties, and then on to our Sponsor's shop for a cars and coffee/open house event. I will map out the route and hand out directions the morning of the drive in case it's a large group and separation occurs. The rain date will be the very next morning Sunday 6/13. Any cancelation of the Saturday event due to impending bad weather will be made by 9pm on Friday the 11th.****

Any track days in the area? Can't find much on the forum. |

Here is the route if anyone wants its ahead of time. We will stop at Van Sant Historic Airport for a group photo and I believe there are a few port-o-potties there too.

If my car is here I will totally jump in on this. Good break in miles. If not, can I be that "guy" and join with a P-car?

Those who have indicated that they will be attending the Sunrise Drive on 6/12...the vendor has asked that we "close" any further sign ups as it appears they will be at capacity for parking based on the amount of responses we have received. There may be some limited street parking available if their facility overflows. If you plan on just joining for just for the drive, there is no issue adding more cars, but for the cars and coffee afterwards we are reaching capacity. If you have already signed up, we should be able to get you parked. Thank you for your understanding!
