On Sunday May 18 the Blue Oval Mustang Club will be cruising the back roads of Northeastern Connecticut to enjoy the abundant scenery and twisty roads. We will be exploring some of Connecticut’s most gorgeous spring sites! The majority of our trip will take us cruising down state scenic roads, exploring the hills and lowlands of the northeastern vineyards and farms. There will be views of nostalgic New England farmhouses, tranquil ponds, brooks, and streams, and of course -- lots of nice, open road for cruising. We will also be awarding three “Best in cruise” trophies for the cleanest and most unique Mustangs at this event.
Our itinerary includes two highlight stops. Our first will be a brief stop at one of Connecticut's smallest Ford dealerships, they have a unique show room decorated with everything Mustang in the nostalgic center of Eastford, CT.
We will then proceed to drive on the next part of the cruise for a late afternoon lunch break to The Vanilla Bean Café in historic Pomfret, CT. The Vanilla Bean Café has received numerous accolades and awards from food reviewers and prestigious publications such as The New York Times and the Boston Globe. They offer sandwiches, wraps, soups, and a variety of entrees. They also sell local sodas and delicious desserts, for which they have also received awards. For the vegetarians: Vanilla Bean has been voted the "Best Vegetarian" in the area. Their food is well-seasoned, fresh, and prepared to be absolutely delicious by their chefs. The offerings at the Vanilla Bean are sure to please. You can check out their menu at

We will be meeting at Ultimate Edge Performance for 11:00 AM on Sunday May 18 (
