June 2009 Catskills and Adirondacks ride

[VanHarlan]

If my wife can get the time off we will be 2 up.
Dave & Ann.

Dave - hope you both can make it.

I'm hoping to do the August White Mt / Green Mt ride again this year too.

Ordered my Starcom1 Advanced yesterday - hopefully I can get it set up & dialed in for the Cats & Daks.

See you then.

I posted up Garmin files and pdfs of both routes on another forum.

Oh - hey - got it to work - thank you!

I'd like to attend this but I'm waiting on my family to make up their minds about visiting me.

These dates are the tentative time that they're coming........but if they don't,,,,,,,I'll be there.

Here's my Tracy Road Vid's..........(The camera's on my FJR--I'm riding with some Triumph friends)

Part one, I follow everyone for a bit to film them.

Part two, they all disappeared behind me.......I'm not really pushing hard.

Although no one was in my mirrors all they way to the stop sign, the red Rocket showed up before I got turned around.

He tried to catch me by flying on the straights then braking hard for the turns.

You can see him checking out his overheated front brakes at the end.

Go Brody! Show 'em how to do it 2-up!

My wife's outlaws have finalized that date for their reunion, so we won't be attending. :angry2: Sally did say I *could* go, but...... I'm not exploring what the 'but' entails.

Art, BIG thanks for the offer! B)

Anyone on the fence about attending this should just do it! The routes are great and Jim and Iris are terrific hosts and fun riders.

See you next year!

What time does the ride start???? I'm 2 1/2 hours away so I'll need to get up at the crack of dawn to get there.

Friday's ride leaves the Circle Diner in Latham at 7:30 and stops for breakfast in Phoenicia at 9:00. I plan to meet the group in Phoenicia.

Saturday leaves the diner in Latham at 8:30.

Friday and Saturday? :blink:

Awe, crapola! I was thinking this ride was Saturday and Sunday.

I was going to ride down and make the 'daks ride on Sunday after my big track meet in Burlington, VT on Saturday.

Damn it. Looks like I miss out yet again.

Darn - I was hoping you were going to make it this year - I keep coming to your neck of the woods to visit - not to mention this years White/Green Mountains gig falls on my 23rd wedding anniversary (thank God it's not our 25th because she's expecting something BIG for that one). Well - looks like I'll see you guys in August then - make sure my beer is cold :clapping:

I'm thinking I might join in on this little get together...sounds like fun...and I need a vacation

Let me know - if your coming up on Thursday via the New York State Thruway I can meet you around Rochester NY and continue on to Albany/Latham.

I'll probably take 86 off 90 just east of Erie PA and then up 88...a little more scenic. But thanks for the offer.

 

[Brody]

Gall durn'it!!

I just got the word that my brother is bringing my mother from Florida.

She wants to see my grandsons.

But it just wouldn't be right for me to leave during her visit so I am forced to bow out.

Good thought . . . . actually I may stay off the super slab and opt for historic Route 20 which I can pick up directly south of Rochester. The NYS Thruway runs parrallel, and directly north of Route 20. Will definately take me longer but I could use the "down time" . . . been working like crazy these last couple months.

Danielle and I went out and scouted Route 30 around the Pepacton again today. We're just looking out for you guys, you know. Want to make sure it hasn't changed. B)
