Anyone from NJ,NY or Pa riding this weekend?

Just was wondering if anyone wanted to get together for some riding within the small window of opportunity between Friday and Sunday where it might actually not rain, Saturday looks better but for those who aren't working Friday then maybe a quick trip to Bear Mnt might be nice via 7 Lakes Drive.

 

Heya Dino.

I was thinking about making a post for a weekend ride. I'll go, just give me the details. Would kind of prefer Saturday morning (got a bass fishing tournament on Thursday and won't be home late - I need some beauty sleep to try and keep up with your purrrty looks!).

 

Bass fishing! You are putting freshwater mercury laden New Jersey fish above riding! Cant you fish on a rainy day? :smile:

 

Ah crap boys,wish I could make it. Broke my foot on Sunday on the dirt bike. Gonna' be on the I.R. for the rest of the month. I'm gonna' try like hell to make Seb's burger run on the 25th.

 

Oh man that sucks, I tried to call you on Saturday I went up to your area and I called you from the Welcome Center, then I hit Bushkills Park, let me say the falls were flowing like crazy! Oh and never eat at "Alaska Petes" the food sucks there.

 

I might make an appearance. Keep the thread up on the plans and i'll let you know. Just need to figure out if the weekend plans will leave me by my bike or not. Might be up for that friday ride as well

 

Dino - Yea, I'm a bass fisherman at heart. But I don't keep (or eat) any fish. So they go right back to the same mercury-laden water! And by the way, I fished a tournament about 2 weeks ago, and it only rained 2 inches in the 8 hours I was out there.

PoconoVFR - Damn dude - sorry to hear about that! Now who's gonna show us those PA roads?

Anyway, I'm up for a ride. Let me know what you want to do, Dino. I'm in.

 

I just heard back from DenT for Friday, anyone else? I am wondering how the traffic might be in NYS Friday morning?

 

Damn Steve. Sorry to hear about the foot. You don't really need it to shift or brake, do you?

I really hope to be available for a ride but might need to head out to Long Island w/family. I'll know more this evening.

 

Bbwong is officially certifiable. Going to Lon-Gisland on the 4th of July weekend? You better leave now to get there by Friday night.

Hmm, a Friday morning ride? Well, put a post up Dino or DenT on where you are going and at what time. if I can make it, I'll post back on Thursday night.

 

This is a multitasking posting that includes Friday, Sunday (looks like rain anyway) and Monday :thumbsup:

 

OK, as of right now, early Friday looks good for me but I might need to cut my route short.

And it's pronounced LAWN-guy-lin. Yeah, looking forward to that trip. And to make matters worse, it's to go get the mother-in-law. ugh, just threw up in my mouth a little...

Dino - you have Monday off too? WTF?

 

Yes I am off on Monday, we have flex days at work and I am off every other Monday :thumbsup:

 

yeah i work flex to... i opted for every other Friday off... with the holiday its i get a 3 week stint of no Fridays! Although i must admit, as of recently im more anxious for non rainy days than i am for weekends. What kinda of route you thinking about for Friday? Northern NJ/ New York/ or PA? We should avoid the flow of traffic to the shore due to the weather and holiday. noone i know has work that friday either so i will bet the roads near civilization will be populated and the LEOs setting speed traps.

 

I was thinking about taking 17 to "7 Lakes Drive" to Bear Mnt then hit the West Point area and wake up them army boys :biggrin: then get something to eat and then head home. I am open to any suggestions.

 

What time did you have in mind?

 

The earlier we get out the longer ill ride... let me know a time and i'll prep/gas up tonight. the other question is where you guys comming from and where do you want to meet? I'm in the Willowbrook Mall area.

 

Lets meet at the Sloathsburg Dunkin Donuts at 8:00 am and get an early start. You can find it on google Earth. Its Right on 17 N.B. on the left side in a small strip mall. And when you are 17 in Sloathsburg ride very very slow, the pigs are hiding everywhere in between all the businesses along the road. I once saw 5 cars/bikes pulled over in less than 30min.

 

The only one i am comming up with is in mahwah... ill assume that what you meant?
