VOTING IS FINISHED!

WE HAVE CHOSEN

APRIL 26TH!!!!

It's that time of year again! Spring Group Drive time!

This year we've decided to change it up a little bit.
Spring Group Drive - Up the Midcoast of Maine!


Southerners will meet at the South Portland Park and Ride around 9:30am, and will leave around 10am.

Northerners will meet at the Topsham Target by the mall around 10am.

They will wait there for the Southerners to arrive, and then everyone will head up the midcoast of Maine towards Camden!

We will be stopping at Camden Deli for lunch!

After lunch we will cruise route 17 through Union, over to Gardiner. In Gardiner any northerners that want to, can jump on 295 and head home; however, the rest of us will continue the cruise down route 24 towards Brunswick / Topsham. We will stop at the Target in Topsham yet again for the official end of the cruise where people can head their separate ways. I'm sure a bunch of us will be cruising 295 back towards the Portland area for whoever would want to join.

I hope you all like the plans. If you have any questions, comments, or concerns, please be sure to inform one of the moderators or just ask on this event page!

We hope to see many of you there, and we hope for a fantastic kick off to the Spring and Car Season!

Camden Deli is where I was planning on going. I have a timeshare at Samoset Resort, and my family and I go to Camden Deli to eat all the time!

Hey everyone! We decided on April 26th, because May 17th was not only the first AutoX of the season, but it was also Import Face-Off, and we did not want to make people have to choose between IFO and the group drive because both events are popular and a ton of fun! We hope to see many of you there, and we hope for a fantastic day!

I should be able to make it for the 26th. 

Does anyone know if there are any gas stations with 93 along our route?

The total drive from the South Portland Park and Ride, back to the South Portland Park and Ride will be right around 200 miles. So you "should" be able to do it in one tank of gas. Just fill up right before we leave SoPo.

Thanks guys!

I'll be driving down from Bangor so i figure that should put the whole trip at around 300 miles. to the best of my knowledge there isn't a 93 station between Bangor and Topsham. 

I'll figure something out. Unsurprisingly this is an issue i have to deal with frequently.

Bring 5 gallons in a tank in the trunk!
