Re: 2016 Subaru Alcyone Dragon Meet

Umm, Huck?

It might be worthwhile to actually specify WHEN the meet is in the first post.

If I went I think I'd have to ride down on my '82 Honda 650 Nighthawk. It would be more fun on The Tail.

Re: 2016 Subaru Alcyone Dragon Meet

Subbed. I don't have the SVX anymore but:
  • I'm looking for fun stuff to do with the Zed
  • I've always wanted to do the Dragon
  • I've yet to meet a Subie enthusiast I didn't like

The date is the first line of the first post......am I missing something?

You don't have to show up in an Alcyone (although that would be preferred ) and yes, it is as much about the people, as it is the cars, so come on down!

Re: 2016 Subaru Alcyone Dragon Meet

LOL - Nope Huck, you're not missing anything now. Someone else edited your post on the 19th to add the date, but didn't add a post to mention the date was there now.

THANKS for the info Huck. Hopefully, I'll be able to make it down again this year. It was a pretty good time before.

Re: 2016 Subaru Alcyone Dragon Meet

Hope it's a great one, Huck! I had made reservations last year, and getting down there is still on my big bucket list. It sounds like fun and a good group. I'm selling my SVX to a member here, tho, so I'd have to just be envious of others, when I do make it. Enjoy!

With fond memories of:
'95 LSi, a stock, superb, polo green, "not a garage queen"; Miss May in the '09 calendar! Sold in 2016.
'63 Studebaker Avanti; almost 20 years later, "open hood, pour in money" but what a design!
'64 Studebaker Daytona, red w/rag top; part of the Presidential Parade (as in DC) & probably why my right ear rings
'71 Mercedes 280 SEL; a partial restoration that always rode like a limo
'72 Datsun 240Z; simply fun, and the #2 sports car of the '70s
'73 Plymouth Scamp w/a small V-8; cute, and the faster I drove, the better the MPG
'90 Acura Legend; the last year of the first sports sedan, terrific handling plus comfy touring

Nancy, You'd be welcome with or without your SVX!

Re: 2016 Subaru Alcyone Dragon Meet

I've been wanting to do this for a long time and now I finally have the time and the means but no car.
I really doubt an Expedition would be much fun on the tail

Come on down anyway, I'm sure one of us will take you for a ride!

We have several members that will be there without their ALCYONE, for one reason or another, but we don't mind
