So this is our first fall here in DE... My wife says cruising Skyline Drive when the leaves change is supposed to be pretty cool. Thought Id see if anyone does this or if there are any groups that do a tour. Sounds like it could be a good time.

I have heard it is quite a nice drive. Been there but not during the fall. Could be cool!

Ordieman · 10-12-2011, 07:48 PM

What time frame are you looking at? Was looking at doing this. Did it last year but leaves had already fell.

The Stig · 10-12-2011, 08:26 PM

I've done the drive before, it is amazing. Especially this time of year.

Jabs · 10-12-2011, 08:49 PM

Heard it's an amazing drive! Can't remember who but I wanna say Motor Trend rated it as top 10 drives in the world.

Looks like the leaves are just now starting to turn so Im thinking in the next 2-3 weeks? Seems like fall starts a bit later than it does in Minnesota so Im just kinda keeping my eyes on the trees.

I think it would be really cool to get some Camaro peeps together and do a group "tour". Maybe find a hotel to drive to on Saturday and head home on Sunday.

id be down

Ordieman · 10-13-2011, 05:14 PM

Could do the last weekend in OCT or the first weekend in NOV. Might be able to gather up a small group from down here.

Paul ...I think the leaves would be full glory towards the end of October.....I think the end of Nov ....the leaves will probably be on the ground. Especially if we have many more storms go through like today. Count me in if next weekend works. It is awesome drive!

fielderLS3 · 10-13-2011, 06:20 PM

I've done that drive, but in the spring, not the fall. Even without the fall colors, it is a great drive.

I think I could make just about any weekend work Oct 22 or 29...or Nov 5.

Love to do that with a group of folks...maybe we should solidify a date and make a plan. (Oct 30 is the wine and wheels show down by Dover so I just want to make sure Im around for that since I plan to enter the car)

Ordieman · 10-13-2011, 06:50 PM

I can do Oct 29 od Nov 5

Top Thrill · 10-13-2011, 07:37 PM

I might make it if on Nov 5.

Awesome_SS · 10-13-2011, 07:38 PM

I would be interested. Did the drive in my Tahoe a few years ago...in the Camaro would be 10x better. Last weekend in October or after would be best for me.
