Viper Peeps get your fangs ready to rumble; Sunday! Sunday! Sunday! Bring your appetite and your viper we are cruising southern NH...destination "All You Can Eat" sunday brunch at the Atkinson Country Club. Not a pot-hole or any sand from winter to loose a wheel or traction. After the white knuckle ride (ha ha) your passenger can enjoy a bloody mary or mimosa! Tons of parking!
Come on out to the spring opener and kick off the season in style.
Let's get as many gens and different color vipers as we can!!!
See you there,
Rusty

Another Spring Opener on record!! It was a perfect spring day, blue sunny skies with the temps reaching 65 degrees!! We met at the exit 2 Rte 93 rest stop; and after checking out all the cars, we formed a big circle, introduced ourselves and had a quick drivers meeting. It was great to see familiar faces and meet our newest members (long distance we had Bob and Maria from Northern NH and newcomers Mike and Wendy coming from Augusta Maine) V.P. Tim Mahoney and the First Lady, Dominique took the lead and drove us through the back roads of southern NH. We all stayed together and cruised the smooth pot-hole free roads, enjoying the scenery with a lot of spectators waving, tooting and video taping us as our pack of "Skittles" wound it's way through small towns to our destination, the Atkinson Country Club. 14 colorful vipers and one black hellcat charger arrived en masse and parked together forming the back drop for our group photo. The Atkinson CC was the perfect host; having a dining section blocked off just for us and offered an all you can eat Sunday brunch. It was delicious with a huge variety of breakfast and lunch items; including an omelet and waffle station; "cut it with a fork" prime rib and decadent desserts to name a few. It was a fun group and we were able to "table hop" to mix and mingle and catch up after the long off season. We closed the place down; regrouped out in the parking lot and said our goodbyes.
Looking forward to our next event which will be May 1st with a cruise through the seacoast of Cape Ann. Details to follow.
Hope to see even more vipers at our next event!!! (Including our illustrious President Martin! the super-charger kid)
