• This event, original scheduled for October 27th, has been postponed until Saturday, November 3rd! 

we're doing it again—and the date's been set!  Event organizer Peter Walker will be putting together another fun frolic through the hills of Western Massachusetts on Saturday, November 3rd. (The rain date for this event is Sunday, the 4th.) Peter is again promising us an interesting, scenic, traffic-free, twisty route through the falling leaves of New England’s legendary foliage. Here's the scoop:

We're going to meet up at the Fillin' Station Diner in South Deerfield, the same place we've started our tours several times in the past.  Plan to be there at 10:30am, because we're going to shove off promptly at 11:00, and finding us will be difficult after that.  From there, we'll head out on our marvelous back-roads romp.  Along the way, we're going to be stopping at the Charlemont Inn for lunch around 1:00.  This attractive, rustic, 220-year-old establishment offers reasonably-priced soups, sandwiches, salads, and the like.  This is the place where we lunched last year, and everyone was delighted with it. (You may recall that we arrived a little later than we’d planned, due to a certain ’74 Spider’s busted fuel pump.) We’ll then continue on for some more country cavorting before calling it a day.

Everyone who's been on one of our Sorties knows what a great time it is!  (See last year's event.) This could be the last chance this year for good fling with your fellow Alfisti, so don't miss it!  See you on the 3rd!

Maps and Directions

How to find the Fillin' Station:  From any direction, take I-91 to Exit 24 for South Deerfield.  Head south on US Route 5 (left at the end of the ramp if coming from the south, right if from the north).  Look for a big DINER sign a short distance on the left.  You can't miss it—here's what it looks like:
