A good four hours or so from my place to Suches.


Ebbs, ya are welcome to drop in for a breather on your way there, if ya wanna make the leg up this way. Who knows, i just might ride there with ya :dthumb:

if I wind up going we can meet up somewhere since i wll be comming from the NYC area. the plan was to meet derf and we were going to head down and maybe try to get an iron butt patch, but he had to go and get deployed to afghanistan.

Oh then its ok I think its 880 miles from my place :lol:

Tom

where you at tom? NY?

yes I live on long island in nassau county and am right near the border of Queens (NYC) but by may I will prolly be moving further east on the island.

Tom

ahh ok... just take'n note... plan'n a trip to Newfoundland... so I make note of all fellow members along my route :wink: :lol:

defiantly get all the damn PA and NJ folks and head down...

What do you guys think about this?

maplost has me going this way

now you think it woul dbe shorter/easier to slab 95 down to 85? that was the way we went going to the gap and it seemed to work prety well. Although 85 is boring as hell and there are tons of places for the popo to hide out there. Plus if I take 95 I get hit for tolls on the njtpke, the bridge leaving joisey, and the tunnel through baltimore, plus whatever else is further south.

Tom

My Garmin software says 95 south to 85... 20 miles less... but 2 hrs less... :idk:

I have it set to avoid tolls and it still says 95 south... :idk:

thats odd, with all the tolls on 95. For the njtpke I can jump off at 295 and take that to 195 south, but would have to see about bypassing the bridge out of jersey and avoiding baltimore and DC esp depending on what times I leave.

That link about the cabbott trail has me thinking too, if I dont do any track days this year I may try getting up there.
