Posted - July 17 2008 : 21:30:29 This year I would like some input on the forum about the location of the 2009 Bricklin meet. We have two choices this year:
LONG ISLAND NY near the Hamptons
Here is a glimpse of what is being planned. Wednesday cocktails at the Vasso residence, Hampton style. Thursday morning at the Riverhead raceway, then a cruise down Dune Road in Westhampton, view of the ocean and bay surrounded by multi million dollar homes. Top the day off with dinner at the Top of the Wharf, with an outrageous sunset and the best food in town. Friday options include a road rally to wineries on north shore, or a trip on the south shore to the tip of Long Island, Montauk Point. Final destination will determine location of dinner both of course with water views and repeat sunsets. On Saturday cars will be judged and a banquet like no other will be held. Shopping, putt putt golf, aquarium, culinary institute, fresh farm stands, and home made ice cream near by. The hotel is centrally located to all at points in the middle of the fish tail of Long Island and serves a complimentary breakfast. The rates $129. Wednesday and Thursday , $189 Friday and Saturday. Banquet $35. Buffet. Dinner Thursday, fish fry option $9.95 all you can eat.
Milwaukee WI
We would have a Harley Motorcyle tour on Thursday. Thursday night there will be a Brick Nic at Bill Schafer's house. Friday would be a tour of the Elkhart Lake speedway. Saturday show at a nice Sheraton with a price of $100 per night.
The Milwaukee trip is cheaper. So I would like to see eveyone chime in as to where you want to go next year. Help us out and post your view here. we will make a decision by 8/1 |

Posted - August 24 2008 : 08:57:36 The meet should be in Milwaukee. The meets have been out east alot the several years and east coast memebers have gotten breaks from long drives. '04 was in NY state, '05 was in Kitchener, ON (not far from Toronto), 06 was Holland, MI.,'07 was near Boston and this year was in Gettysburg (not too far from Baltimore). Time to have it in the midwest again and who really wants to drive in NYC traffic?........... Mike, VIN 0038 |

Posted - August 10 2008 : 16:30:20 Can you give a guesstimate of the time frame next year for the meet? I was hoping to have my car finished this year but due to some unforeseen circumstances I may not have my car until June 09 if I'm lucky.
Thanks

Posted - July 22 2008 : 22:13:11 Either one is good for us. Both have good points and I'm sure the meet directors will put on a good show. As far as we're concerned it's the people we really want to see again. We'll be there, whatever location. |
