Lessons I learned:

1.) Keep it casual.
2.) Under 2 hours.
3.) Forget car shows unless they are the end of the run and people can just leave.
4.) Has to be dry weather for 2 days in advance with virtually no chance of rain day of.
5.) If food is involved have it to start or end.
6.) Wrap up 2 hours or so before dusk.
7.) Minimize traffic lights and stop signs as much as possible on selected route.
8.) Not a race.
East Haddam is known for its roads and lack of stop lights.... and woods... and deer...
