We are planning on taking a few days to get down to, and back from, EOM from up here in the hinterlands, this coming September.
Our current plan is to depart from southern NH on Tuesday the 18th and, assuming reasonably good weather, to take 3 days to get there. We'll be riding west initially, to steer wide of the I-95 corridor congestion and take in some of the Berkshires and Catskills before skooting through western PA and into West Virginia to hit the always magnificent US Rt 219, then more backroads bliss down to Hendersonville arriving Thursday late afternoon/evening. In the event of rain we can just slab it down I-81 in two days and spend an extra day down in North Carolina.
We're planning similar itinerary for the way back, departing on Sunday AM and either slabbing it home in 2-days if there's rain, or taking 3 pleasant days on the 2-lanes if the weather holds out.
I'll be two up (TMJ and me) and MEM says she'll most likely be coming along with us for the ride on her way past from up in Canuckistan. Any other folks in the area who are planning on attending and can work with that rough schedule, who'd like to join us, just let me know. We'll have us a little NERDS caravan to EOM!
PS - I'll share the proposed GPS routes after I get them all hammered out.
