Greg Ginsberg took this photo with my camera from the top of Little Round Top in the Gettysburg National Military Park. It shows the cars lined up for the group photo (we has so many a shot of the cars lined up for at least a 1/4 mile stretch was impossible).



Here's part of our group assembed for a photo.



Here's part of the long, colorfull line:



This is the kind of scenery we spent the day driving through. The fall colors lived up to expectations. Spectacular!

See the Fall Colors pages for many more photos.

Wow! What a beautiful part of the world and what a meet!

If we got 100 S2000s together in the UK that would be about 10% of all the S2000s in the country.

Superb! Can't wait to see more photos.

Rick,

Just wanted to say THANK YOU for a job well done with the drive. I had a total blast, as did everyone I spoke to.

For all you others here to see the pics... the one above just doesn't do it justice. I parked near the rear of that line so I missed the group photo, but the line of cars stretched as far as the eye could see. Totally unbelievable.

I had a vision of walking down the line with a video camera and sending it to Honda. They could release it as a commercial with the slogan, "Honda.... we're making bank!!!"

Thanks again, it was a beautiful day that will never be forgotten.

After climbing to the top of the hill overlooking the group (the hill with the monuments on top) and enduring a hidden creek, briars, and a plethora of prickly seeds stuck to me... I took this picture (I wish I had a better zoom though):


I will post a better one in the Fall Colors Section of all of the cars...

PS I loved meeting all of you!!!

Shaner,

Great Pic!! That really does a good job of showing how many cars there were. Too bad you had to battle the elements to get that shot

Also, I can't believe what you've done with your ride! Much talent my friend, much talent.

Rick,

Looks like you guys had a lot of fun.

Living out here in CA, we never get to see the colors change on the trees. looks like we're missing out on nature's fall show.

By the way, what was the final count for the number of cars that turned out?
