Default Improptu Day or Night Runs

Now that the weather is finally getting better, I know there are lots of you -just like me- who will look for any excuse to take the car out for a nice long ride.

If the weather is right and my wife & I end up having a free night, we have no problem hopping in the s2k and driving from Nutley NJ, all the way to Warwick NY to grab a burger and some beers at our favorite spot (Yesterday's = Best burgers ever), just to have an excuse to blast through the twisty mountain roads of Route 17 that run through Sterling Forest, Tuxedo & Warwick.

Or sometimes, we'll wake up super-early in the morning, hop on the Palisades Parkway, and hop off in some random town, just to grab a nice breakfast, turn around and drive all the way back home.

There have been several times where I'll see another S2K, or some times a single S2K with a group of other cars, who I bet are also just out having fun early in the morning while the roads are still empty.

I figured rather than hijack the Bear Mtn thread, or any other thread, I'd start a new one, just for people to post on if they suddenly decide to go on an early-morning or late-night run, in case someone would like to join them. Maybe some of you know of some good driving-roads you'd like to share.

I can easily turn my 12 minute drive home from work into a 90 minute tour of the Delaware River. I'm a bit South of you however.

I'm down for a day run especially if it involves food!!

I am usually off on weekends so if you're planning one then that would work.

I might be down to take a spin on a whim and I'll be coming out of Queens as well. Awhile back I was considering something like this as well.

I live about 5 minutes from 17A and 15 minutes from Yesterday's. Sounds like a no brainer to me.
