Chaps? In August? :yikes:

I have to say last year the mornings were chilly. We rode home from Lake George Sunday morning and I was in fleece lined wind pants over my jeans and about 4 layers of shirts plus a coat. If I remember correctly it was around 43 degrees. Layers are best so you can remove as needed, it does warm up mid day.

I never used more than blue genes, sometimes flannel lined and a jacket with and without the liner. This year I might try leather pants if it is cool out.

I will be bringing my snowmobiling bibs, Upstate NY weather usually ends up giving me the shaft when I try to plan ahead. So if I bring the bibs I will be able to ride the entire rally in shorts.

Just sayin'...........

 

[Deanna777]

Bring clothing for cool/warm weather, and bring rain gear just in case.

Also, bring your camera, there might be some fall foliage that you might see. The trees start turn colors about that time. Also, Google Au cue weather for the weather in that area. Deanna

Spyderquest is in September

 

[Pampurrs]

Spyderquest is in September

Ah yes, it may be getting a bit nippy up there in September. Yeah, I'd probably pack my chaps in the saddlebags... :thumbup:

I like your logic.

 

[bmccaffrey]

After labor day weather can go up and down real fast in upstate NY.
Bring clothing for all season riding.

Agree with Deanna bring camera. Their rides have some great views. There may be little color in trees but not close to peak.
ENJOY!!

That time of year In NY watch the extended weather forecast and pack accordingly. Predicting what to bring right now is a crap shoot!

On another note WellsboroSpyder. There will be a small group of us heading your way this coming Saturday 8/22. 3 Spyders & 5 people right now, possibly a 4th Spyder with 2 more. Heading up 44 to Waterville for lunch then up 144 to Galeton and over to Wellsboro. Maybe we can run into you along the way?

We may be going to Hamburg to cabelas. Taking the spyder and going through the are that is on fire underground. If coming on 220 there is a great place for ribs at Mill hall exit. Curts smoken ribs.

Any recommendation for food near Hamburg or Pottstown

 

[Bob Denman]

The weather? You might want to have an extra layer available, that you can remove as the Sun climbs higher in the sky... :thumbup:

Snowmobile bibs? :shocked:
I thought that you only had ONE set of bibs... :thumbup:

 

[Dan McNally]

The Lake George region can see temps near 90, and temps near 35, that time of the year - sometimes in the same week! Plenty of layers are recommended. I recently picked up a really neat down vest at Costco for less than $18 that packs into a very small stuff bag, that comes with it. I expect there will be days up there when I wear it in the morning, under a jacket, and will have it off, by noon. This is a link to the men's sizes, but they had women's, too

Now you got Me thinkin about Boston Lobster Feast in Orlando......all you can eat lobster for less than $30.00. I don't need that kind of bib, because I never let my food escape.
