Default DC/MD/VA Audi'ers... June 1st River Road Run... (Version 3 this week!)

<center><img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/18954/01-15-02_sugarloaf_run-s.jpg"></center><p><b>Note... After the Run we will be heading to the Capital City Brewery located in Downtown, D.C. at 1100 New York Avenue, NW (202 628-2222) for some beer and food... This is to lessen the impact on lots of Audi drivers on my personal beer supply at my apartment You can get directions, etc. at the link below.</b>

Here is the soon to be famous River Road run... an 85 mile round-trip that is turning out to be quite the gem. We will modify the route as time goes on to maximize the fun... Currently it
includes plenty of curves and straight country roads. On Saturday, June 1st, we will meet at
Starbucks at 2pm, leave soon afterwards via the GW Parkway and re-group before we start
the run at the starting point.

Everyone print out a copy of the directions below to have on hand. The Starbucks just south
of the Arlington BMW/Porsche dealership (Old Audi dealership), with plenty of parking.
Starbucks is located in the shopping center across from WagonWorks, between the new Audi dealership, and the BMW/Porsche dealership.

What: Starbucks/ River Road Run, to Replace KK Run
