Caravan to Bimmerfest
Calendar: USA - Mid-Atlantic
Pat@sonictuning
Major General
 
I would like to start a caravan from Tysons 2 Galleria to Hunt Valley Cars and Coffee. Planning broke down with the CP Ikea group as they are now leaving Ikea at 7:30 AM. I would like to meet at Tysons in the front where the Cheesecake factory and Maggianos are at 6:50 AM and leave by 7:20 am sharp to meet the folks in Hunt Valley.

UPDATE::: We are going to meetup with the Hunt Valley Cars and Coffee group to roll up to Bimmerfest. They are leaving at 9 am sharp. We should leave Tysons by no later then 7:20 as it takes a good 1 hour and 15 minutes to and hour and a half to get to Hunt Valley.
RSVP'd Yes: 24 RSVP'd Maybe: 6
RSVP sign-ups for this event are now closed.

If you leave by 0730 from Tysons like you say you will, you will have more than enough time to get to CP.
There not sure yet. Abheek said he will keep me updated.

UPDATE::: The CP Ikea people are now leaving at 7:30 am from there as they have reserved parking under the group name Bimmer Alliance. Please let me know if you would rather do an NOVA cruise to Bimmerfest or make the meet earlier and meet with the group in CP Ikea. Thanks.

Well the Ikea people are leaving at 730 so we would probably want to get there by at least 715 which would make my meet up time of like 630.

That is too early for me. I'd rather go with the original plan.

If we go with the original plan by the time we get to CP there isn't going to be anybody there. So we either try to meetup with a group at white marsh maybe or have our own caravan from Tysons.

At this point I'm going to say 15-20 cars. If we all decide to roll together I can push back the time we meet up so everybody can sleep in a bit

Come on everybody I need everybody's feedback to figure out what we are going to do! Are we going to Caravan from NOVA to Aberdeen or are we going to try and meet up with another group somewhere along the way? Please let me know!!!

Hunt Valley Towne Centre
108 Shawan Road
Hunt Valley, MD

The gathering forms between the former Best Buy and the Joe's Crab Shack that's finalizing construction. At the HVTC main entrance (off Shawan Road), take a right. You'll see the light rail on your right and the former Best Buy on your left.

Here's the link to the Hunt Valley Cars & Coffee Group Page.

The first wave of construction extended utilities to the new women's clothing boutique. Right now its complete and ready to open soon. Back in the 'early days', we had to navigate the dirt channel that covered the utilities. Old times.

Right now, classify it as an 'unquantified' amount. Its simply an open invite. A few folks have mentioned interest on the C&C group page and a few have done so here as well. I'd imagine that there will be some that don't use either resource that may cruise.

As for the typical C&C event size, we'll see 80-110 on a morning with dry roads and skies.
