Details of the Drive:
- Start in Clifton Park at 10AM sharp and drive to Saratoga Auto Museum. Spend an hour at the Museum.
- Leave Museum at NOON and head over to Saratoga Winery* for a wine tasting (we may eliminate this if no interest or to save on time).
- Head out from Saratoga Winery towards Great Lake Sacandaga
- Drive along the lake on some of the curvy roads and head up to Lake Luzerne
- From Lake Luzerene we head East towards Glens Falls, down Rte. 4 and along Saratoga Lake to Peddlers on Rte. 9
Number of Stops: Three (Auto Museum, Winery* and Peddlers)

*Based on interest and having time for the stop.


Start Time: 10 AM
End Time: Around 5:00 PM by the time we get to Peddlers

McDonald's Address: 1517 Crescent Road NY 12065-780
Peddlers Bistro: 16 Clifton Park Village Road NY 12065
Saratoga Auto Museum: 110 Avenue of the Pines Saratoga Springs, NY 12866


RULES AND THINGS TO KEEP IN MIND:
- THIS IS NOT A RACE. TAILGATING WILL NOT BE TOLERATED. SPEED LIMITS WILL BE OBEYED.
- Bring a Two-Way Radio if you have one. Helps us to keep together. (Thank you Ellen )
- Carry sun block and plenty of water
- Bring a snack or have your fill at McDonalds. We won't be stopping to eat anywhere until we get to Peddlers
- Ensure you have a full tank of gas prior to start.
- Ensure your car is prepped. Check oil levels, tire pressures etc.
- Respect other traffic on the road and your fellow S2000 owner.
- Keep an eye out for Pedestrians, motorcyclists and loose pebbles. Give all three a wide berth
- If you lose sight of the car in front of you, don't fear. Keep driving and look for the other cars. We will stick together as best as possible.
- This is an S2000 only event. It is easier on the drive leaders to not have to keep looking out for other cars. The only exception is cars that have driven with us in the past. These cars will bring up the rear.
- In the event that Peddlers cannot do individual checks, please ensure you are willing to split the cost evenly with the group. Save us the hassle of trying to figure out who needs to pay for what.

I'll try to come and go as far as Glen Falls. Then, since I'm that far north, I'll want to peal off and keep heading north. Maybe can't bring the S. Molly will be the "Problem". Hard to keep her cooped up on the floor of the S for 6+ hours.
