    Sounds like you're taking the long scenic route my friend. :)

    If you decide to come over the GWB then I can meet you guys on the other side...if not, then I'll meet ya at WWoC.

    Trying to avoid the X-Bronx at all costs, besides, Map Point says this is the most direct route, hey get up earlier we'll be there by 9AM.

    Hi everyone - I still need a ride... anyone coming from the city, or through the city?

    Or, as a second choice, anyone going from somewhere close to a rail station I can access quickly from Penn Station?

    It sounds as if the LI group is taking the "north route" while I'm here in Ridgewood just moments away from WWoC. My buddy Mike is in as well and he'll be coming from Edgewater so the question now becomes how is Geoff going to get to one of us? I can always pick him up from the Ridgewood or Ho Ho Kus train station, but I'll leave that up to him. I'll be at WWoC between 9-9:15am...as for a pre-run, I don't think it's going to come together unless you have a specific route in mind for a select group of us? We will have a post-run to grab some grub most likely. :)

    Good synopsis (in that you remembered me! just kidding.)
    1a) Geoff CAN meet someone in NJ anywhere convenient to them and accessible by rail. I can be in Secaucus (not that I have any idea where that is) in 9 minutes from Penn Station (which is a 5 minute walk from me). I can also connect somewhere else in NJ, but I have no idea what these cities are (Rutherford, Garfield, Pladerville, Radburn). Any of these on the way for anyone??

    Alternatively, I could also take the LIRR out to Long Island. Of course, that would seem silly since it's the opposite direction, and i'd probably have to start VERY early to pull that off, but if any of the Long Islanders go near an LIRR station, maybe I can get there.

    Or I can just cave in, rent another car, and meet someone somewhere since I wouldn't want to drive anything I'd rent all the way to Spring Valley!

    Hmmm... I can get to Ridgewood in about 50 minutes (but to get there before you'd leave I'd probably have to start pretty early...) I'd do it but I'm also not too crazy about ending up with another trainride back at the end...

    Anyone have any better ideas? When are you planning to leave Ridgewood, Eric?

    First of all, you DO NOT want to go to any of the above mentioned towns. They're completely out of the way and some are well...kinda shady. ;-)

    Here is what you should do. Head over to Penn Station and catch the 1707 on the Main Line/Bergen County Line to Ridgewood. It leaves at 714am and arrives in Ridgewood at 8:07am (Sat Schedule so a little slower than normal). I'll be there to pick you up...

    Let me know if this works for you and you can give me a ring in the morning once you're on your way. My cell is Two oh One Two Two Zero Fourteen Forty Five.

    You posted while I was writing about connecting in Ridgewood...so let me know your thoughts. It is definitely an early morning for ya, but I'll be happy to pick you up. Maybe one of the LI guys is heading back through the city on the way home? Mike in the Boxster may be able to drop you off at the ferry? Then again, it's the same thing as taking the train back to Penn by the time you are said and done.

    OK, I think my passenger seat has just been vacated.

    Geoff, pm me your address (Manhattan, right?), cell & directions to your place from the GWB.
    If arrangements haven't bee made by later tonight, I'll pop by & pick you up. figure around 8:15-8:30 so we should make WWoC by 9:15. Eric, maybe we could hook-up at the palisades gas station sans Meathead for a run to WWoC?

    I may be down for that. Just want to launder the 993 in the morning before I take off. Let's touch base by the end of tonight to firm everything up...

    I need to go out to dinner soon.

    If anyone can get me tomorrow, let me know at nine one 7 - 9 oh two - sixty eight 64

    Clyde, I sent you a PM with directions but forgot the mobile number (which is above). May not be necessary, though, if whoever Michael was saying will get in touch with me does.

    Out for a bit.

    Geoff, I responded to your PM without reading this thread first. That'll teach me.

    I'll check this site in the morning to see if I'm picking up or not.
    If not, I'll meet you all up at WWoC at 9:00i-9:30
