Re: [FWDLK] Cruise Thoughts



Oh, Yeah. We, here in Europe, could start it of. Austria, Germany and The Netherlands should be not much of a problem. Further east can be investigated.

We could finish in the Amsterdam harbour. I might even ship one of my cars, as was the idea with Tulsa!

Oh…, don’t let it carry me too far away…

 

I thought about the estafette idea too. Instead of the Olympic fire we should carry something else. Something that says a lot, says it all.

I'm warming up to this whole crazy idea!  Route 66?  There are probably more scenic routes.  At least one car would probably need to commit to the entire route.

 

The Classic Thunderbird Club of America had a 48 in 48 tour where they drove thru every continuous state in 48 months, many cars dropping in and out regionally.

 

I vote for starting in Holland, Jim can get the ball rolling, and then continue west to Pomona, California.  As Horace Greely said, "Go west, young man!"

how about a Pomona to Pomona cruise? start with Pomona CA, pick up everyone along the way- end in Pomona NJ... on my lawn- have a FWDLK BBQ, then take a fin shot off the roof to give a grandstand shot from carlisle some competition??? to make it fair- i'll drive out to ohio or something and be a tour guide eastbound!
fun though but wont happen...
shame there arent more mopar meets within a 2 week or less timeframe- can have east, middle, western fwdlk meets that can all cross paths at some point...

Rolling sounds good to me!

How about driving x-country to New York, Miami, or any other port in the east, and then continue from Amsterdam, Antwerpen or any other port in Europe? That would draw some media attention.

How far could we continue into Europe? Asia? I know of some enthusiast in Turkey.

What about a "rolling " cruise where some of us join for part of the cruise but not all of it?  There could be a predetermined route, maybe across the USA and Canada, with those of us who wish dropping in and dropping out as desired.  Maybe for some charity?  Maybe with some national TV attention?

Predetermined overnight stops on predetermined dates, some sightseeing.  Probably never more than 10 to 15 vehicles at anyone time - no real limit, but always a mix of Fins.  Maybe stopping at some car shows along the way - Stowe, Vermont has a great show during the second weekend in August.

Just thinking.
