Overview

Join us for our final cruise of the season as we roll out from Shorty’s Diner in Yorktown and make our way to Ford’s Garage in Glen Allen. This isn’t a highway slog — it’s a relaxed, scenic backroads drive designed to enjoy crisp fall weather, colorful foliage, and the kind of roads our Mustangs were built for.

We’ll depart Yorktown at 9:30 AM, cross the Coleman Bridge, and head northwest along the rural stretches of VA‑33 and VA‑30, passing through quiet farmland and small towns. A midway stop near St. Stephens Church will give everyone a chance to stretch, regroup, and enjoy the scenery before continuing toward Richmond.

We’ll finish the cruise at Ford’s Garage, where we’ll gather for lunch, photos, and end‑of‑season camaraderie. All vehicles are welcome — Mustangs encouraged!
