Default DC/MD/VA Audi'ers... April 20th River Road Run...

<center><img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/18954/01-05-02_front_end-s.jpg"></center><p>Here is the soon to be famous River Road run... Shawn/Jerseyboy and I have taken a look at the area,
and this 85 mile round-trip is turning out to be quite the gem. We will modify the route as time goes on
to maximize the fun... Currently it includes 25 mph curves and straight country side where there is no
doubt you can hit 100+ mph safely. On Saturday, April 13th, 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
When: Saturday, April 13th at 2 pm
Where: Starbucks on Rt. 1. by BMW Dealership
Who: Audi Drivers and Friends
Bring: Your F.R.S. Radio!
