5th Annual CT MEET

[88LXi68]

Details:
WHEN: June 18th SUNDAY
WHERE: Marcus Dairy
5 Sugar Hollow Rd
Danbury, CT 06810


The meet is organized by Honda-Tech and it is usually the 2nd biggest Honda meet in the Northeast, first being Honda Day at Englishtown.

It would be really cool to role up with a bunch of 3geez and not be the only old Accord for once.

$5 Donations for the insurance that Honda-Tech gets on the lot would be great. You can send them directly to them or we can send one large lump sum from "3geez"

I assume after the meet, all the 3g's guys that stick around are gonna go out and do somthing?

[SteveDX89]

Looks promising. I'll keep you posted.

[HostileJava]

Jen just pointed out a very important detail. This meet is on Fathers day. I don't think I"ll be able to come.

[SQ is the SQUAD]

if "we"go, we need to get there early as shit so that we can all be lined up together

[88LXi68]

Good point about father's day, I didnt realize it was the same day.

Victor, we dont need to get there early; I have gone early before and it is not worth it. More cars show towards the end so I say midday...

[SQ is the SQUAD]

yeah but alot of cars come eary and leave by mid day. it dosent matter if a lot of other peple are there early, were mainy th gfor us, that way we can do our 3geez thing first and see everything

[hondaman87]

see if i can make it

[keruhas184]

I'll try to be there.

[Whistler225]

only about 3.5 hours away, yeah I'll try to make it. It'll depend on a few things, but as long as some of the other guys are going I'll see what I can do.

[SQ is the SQUAD]

edit:I'll be happy to help anyone do stuff to their car if needed, as long as one or more of you will help me get mine running properly if possible....I'm getting fed up with the damned idle thing....

[keruhas184]

nice dude! get some pics up

Will do when I have a chance. The car's in the shop now anyway -- turns out one axel is bad, as well as window switches are busted. Yeah, we forgot to check the windows :uh:

[Coroncho80]

CT is a hike to take on bikes :D

[SQ is the SQUAD]

its not raining today!!!!! but i got internship and school all day today

[SQ is the SQUAD]

is anyone close enough the bring a grill. we need to bring a bunch of food cuz i remember last year being hungry as shit and the lil food store was packed

[88LXi68]

I am not sure if we are allowed to grill there because technically Marcus Dairy has their own food there.

Maurice...I would love to see you ride your bike 3-4 hours straight and then be able to walk around comfortably.

[Whistler225]

well, according to that thread you linked to, grills are a no-no....which sucks if they just have a little concession stand or something. But hey, that doesn't mean you can't bring a little cooler and cold-cut sandwiches SQ. That's what I'll probably do.

[w261w261]

I live 25 minutes from Marcus Dairy, and try to go there Sundays when the weather is nice on my '73 Honda CL450. There should be a bunch of bikers there since it's a Sunday, but the riders are usually gone by around noon. I'd say that typically you'll have at least a hundred bikes at any one time, people standing around admiring, the usual.

Marcus Dairy is a real dairy, with cows (someplace else), but a big tank for the milk, and a fleet of milk delivery trucks for that old-fashioned milk delivery service that's disappeared most other places. There is a restaurant there, with booths and a serpentine counter. It seats about 100, but there is a wait for a seat on a typical Sunday. Really depends on the weather, as most of the bikes stay away if its rainy, just like me. They used to have "Super Sunday" 3 times a year, and then it was 5,000 bikes. The adjoining shopping center complained, so the event moved somewhere else.

The dairy is right at the intersection of Rt 7 and I84. Easy on/off, and the local cops are generally cool (many of them are bikers), but....on the local streets they will bust you if you are tearing around the residential neighborhoods, so take it easy there.

I've never seen someone with a grill out, so maybe they aren't allowed because of the restaurant. In any case, Marcus has been more than supportive of a lot of groups that aren't too welcome other places. They deserve our help, and patronizing the coffee shop is one way to do it. It's a good place.

You are absolutely right, but we will be in the back lot and the bikers stay in the front.

[Whistler225]

Does anyone know what the entry fee is? Not for the show, but just to get through the gate as a spectator?

Any pick n' pulls in the area?

[SQ is the SQUAD]

its open to the public, come and go as you please. not sure if any junkyards are around

[Whistler225]

cool deal. I know my car wouldn't win any contests (unless it's for "needs most work" maybe lol....)

Well, I will be there. And I might have a nice surprise for members who show up.

[SQ is the SQUAD]

if you do plan on going let me know we can drive down together

[Whistler225]

I'll be going as long as something doesn't come up between now and then. Hopefully I won't be on call that week. That's the only thing I can think of that would put a damper on it.

[w261w261]

About 15 miles south of Marcus Dairy are two junkyards in Norwalk. Unfortunately, one of them a couple of years ago banned the pick n' pull guys, because too much stuff was getting ruined. They said the last straw was when they had an Acura trunklid and spoiler sold for a few hundred bucks, and intercepted someone coming out with the spoiler, which he had pulled out by the roots (you had to say what you were going in for when you went back there). So now it's stop at the front and ask for what they might have....the price is waaaay to high, always. Too bad, because I had been prowling at this place for 30 years. Place's name is LeJoie's.

Another place, much smaller is called LeBlanc's. They have cleaned it up too, cars aren't piled on top of each other but are on racks or parked neatly. It's still pick and pull. Kinda short on 3G's last time I was there, but they had two Sterlings (go figure).

South of Marcus is really the high-rent area anyway. Maybe someone knows if there are yards either in Waterbury (a suitable depressing place) or possibly Danbury (used to be depressing, but has come back). Other than that, I don't think there's too much around.

[88LXi68]

not much is going to open on sunday anyway...

[88LXi68]

Bump...1 Week!!!

[88LXi68]

hey steve, is the other steve not around anymore?


he lives in PA...

[Whistler225]

I would come guys but I'm having issues with my head. The guy who owned the car before discovered the 2nd spark plug hole was stripped and so he tapped it by hand and tried to put in a sleeve. Needless to say, now it's junk. I'll try to make the next one if I can get all my shit together.

[keruhas184]

If I can get wheel spacers installed and get an alignment done tomorrow, I'll be there.

[w261w261]

[88LXi68]
