MECCA TOUR swoop from VIRGINIA

blueskyys · 04-20-2008, 12:56 PM

Going on the MECCA Tour and leaving from Petersurg , Va on Thursday around 5 pm. We would like to find travelers coming from down south or in the tri-cities area of Virginia to meet up at the Southpark Mall in Colonial Heights off of 95 North. It would be cool to get all the Skys and Soltices in a
train down 95 N to Delaware. Where the heck is Islandhopper?!

Jeff is the hardest person to track..he appears out of nowhere...he is the nowhere man...when u least expect him...he appears.

blueskyys · 04-20-2008, 01:07 PM

Mike you are so right. If you are checking out his Sky in the parking lot, he will appear out of no where. If only I could find his Sky.

When I was in Fla. this winter...out of nowhere...Jeff comes down...of course, the southern Fla. group did not who he was...I was so shocked to see him...

He is AMAZING. When I/We first met him...our group in Jersey was having breakfast and all of sudden this white sky comes in with Virginia Plates...it was so funny...and there is Jeff.

blueskyys · 04-20-2008, 01:16 PM

OK,Jeff your ears must be burning. We know your online. So hop on this thread.

DaleF · 04-20-2008, 02:39 PM

What do you think your ETA will be through the DC area?

blueskyys · 04-20-2008, 02:50 PM

Normal speed. 7pm - 7:15pm. Sky speed, slightly quicker.

marlboromike · 04-20-2008, 04:48 PM

Here's Jeff

Va_Sky · 04-20-2008, 07:11 PM

blueskyys I'd love to join up with you all but I'm leaving at around noon or 1pm so that I can be there for dinner with everyone Thursday evening. If you were leaving earlier I'd be with ya...

IslandHopper · 04-20-2008, 07:31 PM

Islandhopper is LIVE, LOCAL, and LATEBREAKING

I can not travel with 95 northbound crew, for I am leaving early on the 8th with stops in Wash D.C. & BWI. Should be arriving at the hotel around 3pm. I'll be in the parking lot waiting for everyone, so take your time but hurry up !! Happy-hour starts when you get there

RAISE YOUR BEER TO THE SKY

It is crazy when people just appear and surprise others at lunches in Jersey.

blueskyys · 04-20-2008, 11:11 PM

We will have to see if we can get off early from work Va. Sky. As of right now it looks doubtful.IslandHopper we will defintley be hooking up when we get there.Your an old salt at this and us being newbies and all, you'll have to show us the ropes.

darrylba · 04-21-2008, 12:28 AM

I have not decided if I will leave on Thurs. In Any instance I could ride a few miles with ya up 95 North. I am off 95 exit 104. Thats about 1 hours drive from Southpark Mall.

Maybe the beltway locals can pick a meet spot along the route and the folks from down south can pick us up along the way?

Darrylba sounds good. Exit 104, is that the other side of Kings Dominion?Bogie - The more the merrier.Any other groups pulling together along 95 heading north?

Springfield Mall seems like a logical choice for us NoVa people. And maybe the Landover area for any Md contingent.

Yep! Excellent Gas Stop. Gas is cheap at the Pilot. Yes, the exit is a few miles north of KD.

blueskyys · 04-22-2008, 05:30 PM

Cheap gas nowadays, that's pretty hard to believe. We could meet up at that pilot if that sounds good.

Va_Sky · 04-22-2008, 06:21 PM

Hey is anyone going to MECCA II heading up through the Chesapeake Bay Bridge Tunnel??? If anyone is going this way maybe we can make the run together...

Iceman · 04-22-2008, 07:30 PM

I'm leaving from out of DC around noon

blueskyys · 04-23-2008, 05:00 PM

VaSky, will you be hopping on 95n at Richmond? If so what time might you arrive? Maybe if the timing works we can hook - up.

If I go 95 way, and everything works out the way I plan, I'd be in the Southpark Mall area about 2:30pm... That should put me at the motel that I'm in around 6pm...
