    I know, it’s pretty early in the year for a Cider Mill Run. Normally you do it in October but since I am not normal I thought we would do it early and avoid the crowds. We met the owner’s of Diehl’s Orchard and they are very nice, so we thought we’d go there. They will set up a special parking area so we can have our own car show.

    I planned the route and also stopped at the orchard yesterday. There is ¼ mile of dirt road but it is hard packed and smooth. We will be stopping 3/4 of the way along the route as usual to talk about cars so if anyone does not want to go on the final stretch you can opt out then.

    We’ll be meeting at 9:45 at Americus Coney in Milford (167 S Milford Rd) for breakfast. Park on the east side of the building in front of the empty Farmer Jack’s like we always do, because it is fairly empty.

    Hope to see you there!

    One week away!

    I made detailed route sheets for everyone, with mileages. Hopefully we'll have good weather.

    Working on it... Expected total mileage?
    Dirt road means no need to wash before!

    It's about 50 miles (2 legs of 25 miles each).as there is only 1/4 mile of dirt, I don't think they will get dirty.

    Way too cold out to wash the car this morning! A little quick detailer to get the bird poop off will have to suffice!

    I was really looking forward to some pancakes & bacon. Then I Lost ignition on the rear bank in Novi. Fortunately, the closest place to pull the car to was Denny's! Have a fun drive, I'll be figuring out what I screwed up yesterday when I replaced those wires & cap...

    Here is the long awaited NSX video from that cruise! It's not my best editing effort, but still an awesome sound.
