Help! Bored in Hamburg NY!

Ok, I am in Hamburg NY on business through the weekend and I am bored out of my skull. Hell, I can't even find a good place to have a beer. I can not believe that this place is more backwards than Idaho.....

If any fellow 944ers have any suggestions, please email me directly at jobesfzr@yahoo.com.

I can't do that yet. Two Porsches in the garage already. I would be asking for a divorce if I did that.

Sasquatch... you're just a couple hours west of Watkins Glen. Take US20 alt to Geneseo & go south to Corning, you're practically there.
Look up Obin near Rochester... see what he's running these days.
Tear up Buffalo on a Cayenne demo drive.

g'luck.

Hey Sasquatch,

When I used to drive cross country, I would leave Los Angeles or Seattle and always end up in Hamburg on the third night (heading back to Vermont).

I stayed in that Days Inn (I think it was days inn) with the bowling alley in the hotel. They have pretty good burgers. The hallways in the hotel are a wierd mint green, with a protruding diamond design...

Never ventured into "town", only there for the night.

Good Luck!
