Glad you both got off the road for the worst of the weather! Hope the sun comes out tomorrow as you continue your separate rides. Safe riding.

 

[Yfactor]

You'll be only about 70 miles East of me at VB. Be prepared for more rain showers as you come this way, most are just light showers so should be pleasant riding.

 

[YumaJim]

Karyl I'm glad you two got there in time before the big storm. Great meeting you at Spyderfest. Be safe on the rest of your travels and I'll pray for blue sky's !

John,

WE didn't get to meet at Spyderfest (you were busy doing something every time I tried to come over and say Hi) -- if you find yourself having any extra time while you are in Raleigh give me a buzz - would love to buy you lunch sir! (Will PM you my number). If you are fully committed while you are here, no problem, offer is on the table for next time your travels find you in my neck of the woods!

I my limited experience in NYC I suggest that Sunday morning is likely to be the best time to get in, drive around and get out again before you hit gobs of traffic. It's not exactly empty streets on Sunday morning roflblack but it does tend to be calmer than most other days.
