It's been suggested that I post the route that our Maryland club, Chesapeake Trikers, will be taking to the rally just in case anyone from MD, PA, NJ, NY, etc. may want to join our group for the trip. I'd like to keep this thread just for this purpose.
We are planning a two-day up, two-day back ride for the round trip. The idea is to have an enjoyable ride with time for pictures, roadside stands, etc., along the way. We're taking a scenic route, including the Delaware Water Gap, and minimizing interstates. There should be only one toll, the bridge where we cross the Hudson River.
We are leaving Bowie MD the morning of Wednesday, Aug 13. We will be stopping in Timonium MD, Lancaster PA, and Easton PA on the way to Matamoras PA where we will stay overnight at a Best Western. On Thursday, August 14, we'll leave Matamoras PA traveling to Lake Katrine NY, then Pittsfield MA then on to Dover VT and the GGI. The shortest leg of the route is 44 miles and the longest is 82. Most legs are between 60-65 miles. I plan on taking the reverse route for the return, leaving the morning of Sunday, August 17. We haven't firmed that up yet.
We're still working on the specific locations and times for each planned stop. I hope to have that settled in the next few weeks.
If you're interested in going with us, PM me with your email address so I can add you to any ride notifications, status, etc. that I send out to our club members.
Thanks,
