Why are we leaving so early? Glad you asked! Tim's is a very popular seafood restaurant, especially on weekends. They would like to cordon off a section of
their parking lot just for our beautiful CCR Corvettes and prepare a separate seating section for us within the restaurant...but we need to arrive early before their "lunch crunch" crowd to enable that.
Everyone who attended last year had a wonderful time at Tim's. It is a very easy-going cruise with lots of curves, canopies and scenery. We'll head west on Patterson Avenue for about 12 miles to the parking lot of the Goochland County Administration Building (near the intersection of Patterson Avenue and Route522). There, we'll be met by the Goochland County Sheriff Deputies who will escort us out of the parking lot and will also block traffic on the nearby roundabout so we can stay together (at least initially) without OTC's on Route 522. Total travel time is expected to be approximately 1 hour and 10 minutes (assuming we encounter no farm tractors on route!) to cover the 53-mile distance. be aware that much of Route 522 is two-lane with no passing. Accordingly, drivers should relax, breathe deeply and enjoy the sights.
Tim's Crabhouse in located north on Mineral at 200G Broadwalk Way, Mineral VA 23117, just off of Route 522. When we get to Mineral, we will turn right at the main traffic light, cross the railroad tracks, then left continuing North on Route 522 to Broadwalk Way on the right.
As always, bring your name tags and radios (if you have one).
