South Florida meet - Feb 2010

Florida People: Boca Concours Ride/GTG

Hey guys ... 2/20 and 2/21 in Boca is the annual concours d'elegance.

I'm getting together a bunch of people to ride up to walk around and to, hopefully, have our own meet up afterwards. It should be a lot of fun

above is the link...add your name if you can go. It'll be a lot of fun; I want to see a large convoy on I95 north!

PM me or post in the thread link above with comments and questions

Although I live within walking distance of the Palm Beach event, I look forward to the South Florida MB instead!

Where & when will the event be held?

I hate all of you Floridians. We're expecting 2ft+ of snow this weekend.

May you all be carried away by Pterodactyl sized mosquitoes and fed to their young.

I think we're just going to Supercar Weekend in WPB, which is next weekend (26th-28th). I didn't see enough interest in the Boca Concours this weekend.

I saw your car...looked really clean! No one was around the car to say 'hi' though (this was right around when it started to rain)
