I just found out about a new Cars & Coffee that goes on Sunday mornings from 8am-noon, give or take. Last weekend I went and there was an Alfa Romeo Spider and a Ferrari 456, but in previous weekends they've had anywhere between 4-6 cars. It's still new and pretty small but definitely worth checking out for those of us who don't want to make the drive to Annapolis or Fairlakes on Sunday mornings.

The Filling Station Coffee
Sparks Glencoe, MD 21152

The best way to get there is to take I-83 north to the Belfast Rd Exit (its 3 miles North of Shawan Rd). Take Belfast East and take a right on York Rd. Filling Station will be about a mile down on the right.

 

How far is this from Bob Evans off Pedonia Road?

 

15 minutes north. The guy that drove the AC Shelby Cobra replica to the Crabcake run told me about it. John Kim (the owner of Tutti Frutti) also knew about it but he didn't make it out on Sunday.

 

Maybe we use this place rather than Bob Evans on a Sunday morning for the cruises Northward.

 

It would have to depend on the size of the group. Bob Evans has the capacity for a larger group, and it's right off the highway. This place, realistically, could only fit about 15 or so cars haha. Maybe we can convince them to expand their parking lot!

 

Excellent idea Scott... Belfast Road is a great area to start... The Bob Evans really sucked although I was able to keep everyone together... We will let the highway group leave from Bob Evans

 

Might try to make it down Sunday... Not sure what my schedule looks like though lol

 

The best place to depart from in that area (Hunt Valley/****eysville/Timonium) is the Hunt Valley shopping center on Schawann Road. More than enough parking that's close to coffee and pastries and easy access to either highway or back roads.

**I didn't add the asterik's, this forum automatically censors certain words. You can probably guess the name of the area. It rhymes with Justin Timberlake's Saturday night skit about something in a box but it's the other word for referencing that body part.

--Thread jacking over (at least for me)

 

i can't do saturdays those this would be a cars and coffee of choice. is there another backroad run going down this sunday?

 

Yeah, the last few weekends in Hunt Valley have been small due to some of the guys having to miss C&C. I missed the last few weeks due to car issues ie losing my water pump while booking down Rt 100. Usually there are about 5-6 cars ranging from Ferrari's to corvettes. Few Bimmer guys. The guy who started it has a 5.0 and a Marauder. Some guys stop buy on tricked out bikes. I usually go on Sunday because its close and the drive up is really nice.

 

This is def the day to go. I took York road from Shawan road ... It was a disaster. I averaged ~15 mph because the road was in terrible condition and grooved.

 

Anyone thinking about going this weekend? Weather is supposed to be sunny and around 50 degrees.

 

Doubtful... Won't be home till around 1am Sunday morning since my flight doesn't land until 12

 

Dude I might go...give me a shout later this afternoon...

 

Forgot my phone at home today...I'll give you a call this evening haha.
