We will be out with a small group as usual. Maybe head back up the Gully's or Torches for lunch afterwards.
End the evening at Chrystal Bay most likely. :drink: :drink:

Bunch of theives. You shouldn't even be on the Hudson the day of the run. :D :D :evilb: :evilb:

Re: NYC poker run
 

You're not in the run?? :eek:

Re: NYC poker run
 

Your right, arrest everyone on the water between Liberty Landing Marina and Havestraw that dares be on the water at the same time as the Poker-runners... :D :D

Actually the thieves are the guys putting the poker run on,, 200 boats at 550.00 a pop = 110,000 and only a 5K pot... But then again, burgers, hot-dogs and slips cost a lot of money, right ??... :drink:

Re: NYC poker run
 

hopefully, there won't be anyone idling in front of the bridge as we go around and in between them at 100-140+mph....
