Location: Long Island, NY... a sister island to the Hawaiian chain. ;-)
Hampton's Run - Sunday, August 10th
Depart from Starbuck's parking lot at 8:30AM
(Just South of the LIE off Exit 64 - Route 112. It's on the Northbound side of 112.)
The rain date will be the following Sunday, August 17
I'm planning an August 10th run in the Hamptons. I hope y'all can make it. Sarge says there has been very little feedback with regards to runs, so it's been tough scheduling them. Well, this time we're just gonna put a stake in the ground and do the run no matter what. Heck, if it's just me out there, so be it! In that case, I'll call it "The run of one" and I'll post pictures as if it were a full club event... me stopping for a bathroom break... me looking at the Montauk Lighthouse... me eating... etc...
The route will be pretty close to the same one we did last year. We'll depart at 8:30AM from the Starbuck's parking lot (just South of the LIE on Route 112 - Exit 64). Please arrive in time. We'll take Exit 70 to Sunrise Hwy. When Sunrise Hwy ends in South Hampton, we'll go off into the twisties and stay that way most of the way to Montauk Point.
Last time, none of us actually wanted to see the Lighthouse. We all spent the money to park, but it was a big waste. Unless told otherwise, this time we'll just drive the Lighthouse loop slowly and go straight to Gosman's.
Lunch will be at Gosman's dock (outside patio area). We'll take a mostly different twisty route out of the Hamptons.
I'll get the outbound and return routes spiral bound from Kinko's, like last year. Please let me know you're coming so I have an idea of how many to get made. I won't have them made until August 8th, so any time between now and then is good.
The route is done in PowerPoint, so if you want an electronic copy of it, just PM me with your e-mail address and I'll get it out to you. That will also be around August 8th, because I want to run it alone just before we go. You never know where or when construction or something nasty could pop up.

T - Skyman CT already gave his yes on the Sky forum. I assume you and he will drive together? Can't having you getting lost and hitting alligators again!!!

We've been a talking about it.
I'm a yes, Mrs Skyman-CT is going to sit this one out and "T" is still checkin her schedule.
That is of course if you'll let a couple SNEKR's cross the L.I. border, after all this is not only Upstate, it's a different state!.

HmmmmI wonder what time the New London Ferry opens. I would love to go by Ferry? 830am is real early but I can figure a way. I am a yes now that I know SKYMAN-CT is going. T. I post of the other side now that I know that there is a thread started. Thanks. hugs T.

"T",
The 1st ferry out of New London to Orient Point on the 10th is 7:00 AM and gets to Orient Point about 8:00 AM the ride from there is about an hour+ from where we are meeting up. - in other words you won't make it to Starbuck's on time. http://www.longislandferry.com/
The Bridgeport-Port Jefferson Ferry is closer to the starting location (Medford) however it leaves Bridgeport at 7:30 AM and gets into Port Jeff about 8:45 AM - same problem doesn't get there in time. Bridgeport & Port Jefferson Steamboat Company
Now I remember why I left at 4:30-5:00 AM and drove all the way around last year.
Anyway here's another choice I'm thinking about:
Go over to LI on Saturday mid-morning using New London ferry and staying here as I have enough points saved up.
- Mrs Skyman-CT may actually join me if I do this, as I promised to take her to a couple wineries on Saturday in which case the New London - Orient Point ferry is actually closer to winieres.
