Default 2011 Northeast Rod Run: Oct 1 -3

I just figured that I'd post up a new thread on here for this year's trip.

I just finished putting together most of the details for 2011's Rod Run and we should be starting to book hotels within the next month or so.

This year's trip is going to be taking us up through Maine and along the coast into Bar Harbor ( http://barharborinfo.com/ ) and Acadia National Park ( http://acadiamagic.com/ ) before heading east into the White Mountains area of New Hampshire. All the fine details aren't worked out yet, but we might even end up touching on Vermont's Green Mountains before it's over.

For more details check out the Rod Run's website/forum, or the Northeast Rod Run's Facebook page. As always I'm always available by email also. In the coming weeks and months there will be much more details listed on the Rod Run's forum, so check back often

Thanks for reading and hope to see some of you on this year's trip.

60+ views and no input?

If you're in the northeast and like to cruise your car on great scenic roads, with a bunch of other musclecars, then you really should check it out.

For the past two yrs, I've watched the Calender closely and have hoped to join in the fun.....unfortunately it hasn't worked out with our schedules yet.
For us, it's one of those things where we really can't commit this early and probably wouldn't be able to until 2-3 weeks in advance, is that possible ?

It's never too late to join in. It's just that by that time, the hotels release all of our rooms and you have to pay full rate, and that's if you can even find a room at that time. Usually most of the hotels are booked solid months beforehand because of the foliage. That's why I start this so early every year

The hotel details, for people coming up to Maine on Friday night, are all worked out. The hotel has given us our discounted rates, but only for a limited time. All the details are on the Rod Run's forum

i'll be there, but then again you knew that. I just found this forum.
I had an awesome time last year. Looking forward to doing it again.
You did a great job putting it together, and it was a blast.
FYI at one point we had a trail about a mile and a half long of really cool cars going up a road, all in view.
Don't have a picture but if you check out the site you can see them.

We had people as far away as Niagara Falls area in Canada attend.

Here is a 9 minute clip of our first year in 2008. We have about tripled in size since then, and still keep meeting great people.
