Default CT/Southern New England Scenic Cruise Sunday June 22nd



All Connecticut and New England Mustang enthusiasts are invited on our scenic cruise, which we have planned to be a relaxing and fun retreat on the Sunday afternoon of June 22nd. We will cruise our route through part of the Litchfield Hills, which reveal some of Connecticut's most beautiful scenery. Open, winding roads will let you have fun handling your Mustang! Bring your spouse and friends; our cruise will be family friendly and we will end it with a unique dining experience at Puerto Vallarta Mexican Restaurant in Avon, CT, which has been voted Best by the Advocates Readers' Poll for several years.

We will be meeting at Ultimate Edge Performance for 11:00 AM (www.ueperformance.com for directions) and then later at Peak Fitness Plaza in East Granby Connecticut for 1:00 PM (just past the Bradley Airport run way, across from the Route 20/East Street intersection). You can reach Route 20 from 91 North or South; just take the exit for Bradley Airport and follow Route 20 to the Granby/East Granby exit (this will take you past the runway and towards our meeting location). Please email us at blueovalclub@aol.com if you plan to come, so we can get a head count for Puerto Vallarta. There will be a prize raffle at the end of the cruise for participants.

I have done 2 of the cruises with BOMC in tha past and they are a lot of fun. If anyone has time on Sunday you should try to make it to this cruise, the people are great, the cars are awesome and the cruise is a blast. Let's hope for some great weather to enjoy a cruise to a great part of CT.

It is a short drive about 20 min. or so.....South
(Coming from Mass towards Hartford)

Take 91 S to the 291 35A "Manchester" Exit

Continue Down 291

Take 291 to Exit 4

Turn left on to Route 5

Go under the bridge and past the lights that put you back on the highway

Continue Down Route 5 North

At the next light (The first 4 way intersection you will encounter) take a right on to Chapel Road

We are the first building on your immediate left, 240 Chapel Road.

Today's cruise is canceled, look for a new date in the coming days.

Although it looks sunny now, there is a line of showers to our west and according to weather.com and other sources there is a high probability for severe thunderstorms, hail and heavy down pours. I can't risk holding this event with this sort of possible weather. Earlier in the cruise season when the worst possible weather was drizzle and a mild shower I opted to go forward with the cruises, but thunderstorms, hail and heavy down pours are more risky and unsafe. This cruise will be moved into August and I apologize, but I have a responsibility to keep our club members, safe and happy (I don't think today will allow for that).
