I drove (or should say attempted to drive) the pre-planned route yesterday and unfortunately this area is still reeling from the effects of Hurricane Ida. Many of the connector bridges along the cruise route are not passable and are closed due to failures. I ended up giving up after driving around for nearly 4 hours trying to piece together a decent route, and its just not really possible. It is my understanding that many of the bridges will be closed until spring for repairs. So as a result, I'm sad to say that the covered bridge tour will be cancelled.

Bummer to hear about the bridge damage, hope everything gets back to normal as soon as possible for that area for their sake.

It's my wedding weekend that 10/23 weekend so I couldn't join originally anyway and I only have an M550i, not an M5, but if there was going to be another weekend drive meetup any other weekend I'd very much be game to come down from the NYC area and join!

That drive would have been open to any German car...so you would be welcome! Unfortunately there really isn't anything planned for the remainder of the driving season because of the bridge situation.
