Lodging
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Penn Wells Lodge still has rooms available for the Memorial Day weekend (but I wouldn't hesitate!). I booked a room about a Month ago for Saturday and Sunday nights (Monday is the Holiday and ride back). You can book online and use the discounted "group rate" @ $114/night, in the order notes, ask for the new wing. Unfortunately being a Holiday Weekend we don't have a lot of booking power/pull. Cancellations are accepted up to 24 hours in advance. Free Wi-Fi and breakfast is included.

Day Ride Routes
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I have made up a couple of routes utilizing some of the great bike roads in the area, I will convert to .gpx (or whatever you need) when we get closer.
KJ's "Head for the Hills" Loop
...minimizes your Rte 6 travel
vs. my more scenic Loop-dee-do?
--> Little shorter run @280mi (than "Loop-tee-doo" @335mi)
--> Only includes about 10mi of Rte 6.
--> More focus right to the hills, incorporates Rte's 414, 120, 555, 140 and of course the Rte 3001 twisted sister.
--> Lose out on the "Trips-6" (Rte 666) and also the Allegheny westerly scenic region.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Some fluff on the loca.....
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The lodge includes breakfast all but Sunday (lodge has an additional chg if you do want it however). So a possible Breakfast hole I've visited before (great chow, don't let the appearance fool ya!) for Sunday am before riding...
Quaint lil town...
Did I mention the scenery sucks?
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
All makes welcome, it's the people who are important!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(HomeBase) Wellsboro {Mansfield area} is only 1.5 hrs away from me so this will be my local event of the year. I haven't been down there in 6 or 7 years so I'm welcoming the reunion slash return! ...you know, so many places to go and so little time delio
Let me know if any of you guys want in!. I started this with some BMW friends, but all bikes & makes are welcomed (Good company is a must however!). We have a diverse mix so far (no HD's, but if some show, I guess they can do there own pirate thang).
Me? I'm coming 2-up w Debbie, I see many have followed suite BUT, solo or paired, it's all good. Hope to see y'all there for some great riding and lotz-a-funn!
