I'd like to set up a regular meet in NY/NJ

As an avid Mercedes Fan and Proud Owner, I'd like to host a weekly or maybe monthly Mercedes Meeting at my coffee shop.

I was thinking it'd be a great place for owners and enthusiasts alike to get together, get to know each other, swap stories, share tips and such.. etc..

God knows I'd love to meet other R129 owners!! I was thinking of making the meeting every Sunday at 12:00PM..

Any takers? and as always.. FREE COFFEE! lol.. (one of the benefits of being the owner)

After all, the old classic car guys have a regular weekly show / meetup.. Why can't we?

Orangeburg is right on the New York / New Jersey Border and there are tons of beautiful places we can cruise through in the area.

The Coffee Spot Cafe
331 Route 303
Orangeburg, NY 10962

From NYC to Orangeburg it's 20 minutes from the GW Bridge.

It's 20 minutes from the City (NYC).. Beautiful 20 minute drive up the Palisades Parkway to Exit 5N then it's up on the right about 1.5 miles.

It would be great if we could get this to work, but I'm very doubtful. We can barely meet YEARLY, let alone monthly.

Way up in the NE corner I think. Well, further up than the AMG HQ location for sure.
