    8/8 sounds good. I'll be flying solo, but may try to round up a south jersyite or 2.

    We might want to ride down with the group,
    as long as the speed isn't too excessive.
    Gretchen starts poking me in the ribs when speeds get above
    80.
    This motor sure likes the high revs, and my mirrors tend to be much more clear.

    This post was suppose to go in the thread about the trip back down from Lake George.
    I screwed up and posted it wrong. Short term memory and bad brain cells, sorry,

    if you want to be back before dark, you'd have to leave the chatterbox at 6:30 pm. most bikes are just arriving by then.

    It might be about an eighty minute or so trip for us; not too long! I figure that if I hold up the promise of "Home by Dark"; as long as I kind of get back onto familiar roads, I can make it work.

    When I get it above 80-85 I don't worry much about the mirrors.

    Chuck,
    I'm trying that one.... She's worried about having to shut the office down an hour or so early, get changed into riding clothes, take the dog for a walk,take her 4:00pm medications... I'm lettingher cool off a bit today by hiding over here, and I'll re-start the efforts tomorrow!

    Bob,
    I guess that I'm now enjoying the "Glorious Results of a Mis-Spent Youth!" Too many years of being "Non-compliant" with my diabetes care has left my eyeballs in a state of photo-coagulation treatment induced wreckage... I've absorbed all of the laser that two eyeballs can take, and my night vision is ZERO... So I'm real careful on unfamiliar roads and in unfamiliar condtions...
    And being legally blind in one of those eyeballs (20/360); I've got NO depth perception. So speeds are a real issue...

    I understand, Is there a chance that one of the other riders can pace you back home [you follow them]..?? If not then just leave enough time to get home before dark, And you'll be alright..

    just tell her that I enjoyed talking to her over at rustys that day while you were trying to sell a spyder to that guy. tell her that my wife and I invited her down for the nice conversation! (we know you'll be in the parking lot selling spyders!!!!)

    It's sounding as if the group ride's timing should be pretty decent; once I'm back on familiar roads (anywhere with 40 minutes of home), I should be okay...

    Chuck, I'll be happy to throw you guys on the table if it'll help convince her!
    Give her a call at the office: 845 985 2284. We're in here from 7:30 'til 4:00

    Ron,

    What way are you coming down. We can meet the convoy and ride down. We will probably be near milford figured bill will leave from there .

    I was thinking of staying wednesday night somewhere up near hawley or honsdale and do some riding around there and find something to do on Thursday. Then do chatterbox. We have plans to go towards long island on friday so we will be staying between the chatterbox and there.

    209s, then left on neversink dr (also I think county rt. 80) crossing rt. 6 onto river road ( also rt. 521?) to NJ. then left onto rt. 206 to chatterbox. Google does not give the state rt.# of river road, but maybe Bill can confirm rt. 521

    209 all the way to Port Jervis?
    That's known as "Venison Alley"
    Although pretty near ANY road heading toward P.J. is a good source for deerstrikes!
    (I normally take 42 South out of Monticello... it's got nice wide shoulders; you can at least see them before they're in your lap! )
