Default NYC ISF Rally - Saturday Evening June 1st

Let's hope the weather is good this time... we can get some daylight rallying, and possibly some nice pics as the sun sets on Sat evening. Routes will be modified later, we would also like to get some tunnel runs under the Battery Park Underpass. I am trying to figure out the best time, where there is the least amount of traffic (yes, I know NYC is the city that never sleeps).


Date/Time: Saturday, June 1 @ 6PM
Start Location: The Hispanic Society of America, 613 W 155th St, New York, NY
End Location: Mamoun's, 119 Macdougal St, New York, NY


Circled in yellow is where we will park:





*** FEEL FREE TO SUGGEST MEETUP SPOTS/ROUTES ***


Here's the route we will take. We have two options, we can cut straight to Mamoun's off West Side highway.....
OR take a longer route and get some tunnel runs via Battery Park underpass. Below is the underpass route.



Confirmed
1. Qasim (SFP)
2. Niloy (MM)
3. Mike (Obsidian)
4. Vijay (USB)
5. John (MM)
6. Melvin (SFP)
7. Kashan (SFP)
8. Simon (USB)
9. JS (SGM)
10. Dave (USB)
11. Rich (Obsidian)

Let's make it 6pm if we do it on Saturday so we can get some driving in before it gets dark. I will talk to Dave and see if Sunday morning is better

I think it's better to make the right at 7th and not Broadway. Broadway is closed at 40 something and we will have to make a left and then a right in to 7th to get to times square anyway. The Streets at times square are pretty bad right now, so if you are low be aware. Also if we are going through the battery underpass from the north, we have to be careful with speeding after the underpass because sometimes there's a cop right by the Brooklyn Bridge ramp and he's hard to see. If we are going from the south, there are cops at the entrance to the tunnel.
