1. Covered Bridge Fall Tour

Time: 10:00 AM-4:00 PM
Place: 30 Ash Brook Rd., Keene, NH
Price: $10

Come join us on the second annual North Atlantic Audi Club’s Covered Bridge Tour and Fall Rally for an afternoon of driving, exploring, and camaraderie with fellow participants on a fun drive through Southern NH region, as we take in some of the fall foliage, covered bridges and local fall “Attractions”.
There are two Rally classes where Drivers and their navigators will follow simple rally instructions that guide them along scenic roads of the Monadnock Region:
  1. TDS (Time-Speed-Distance) class where cars are scored on time over distance between checkpoints with penalties for being either too fast (or too slow)
  2. Touring Class where drivers go on the scenic tour at their own pace.
Bring the children as they can be actively involved in the event. Rally route may include some dirt roads. And be sure to bring a camera (as well as some method for sharing photos (USB cable?)).
The Rally starts at 11 am (registration at 10 am) outside Borders Bookstore in Keene, NH and ends at a casual restaurant in New Boston, NH where you can have a late lunch or early dinner if you choose.  And no, you do not need a special rally car; your everyday vehicle is just fine, as we use public roads and obey all traffic rules.  The rally / tour is approximately 3 hours in length.

To register for the event go to 2011 Covered Bridge Rally / Tour at http://www.eventbrite.com/org/1461785368 and signup for a “free” Ticket. A $10 fee will be collected at the event.
