You guys love to chat once you all get together. :rotf::rotf::rotf::rotf::rotf: Margaret Yes about 10-15 min at each stop! Might not be enough time. but we can make up time on the road. Also we will not have to get you into your many layers of clothing so that should save time:whistling: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ToRide1 Posted April 12, 2009 Share #4 Posted April 12, 2009 Not to high jack the thread but bump it to the top. I and RTR are going and we're coming from West Virginia North on Interstate 81 to Chambersburg and on to U.S. 30 Lincoln Way to Gettysburg so anyone coming I-81 want to meetup and ride in as a group chime up.

ToRide1 Posted April 12, 2009 Share #6 Posted April 12, 2009 I just got off the phone with bob and worked this out and its just an hour ride to gettsyburg from here and we talked about taking U.S. 15 from fredrick MD and agreed its a much longer ride that way. What to do what to do. Edit add: He said he riding back from another location from PA Fryday night so I will be giving him a wakeup call. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mini-muffin Posted April 12, 2009 Share #7 Posted April 12, 2009 Jeff can lead to make up time if you want. Plus all those other 2nd gens that haven't ridden with us will find their rev limiters. I don't take that long to get all my layers on. Jeff helps me get dressed to speed it up. :crackup: Margaret Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could take a more direct route also that would be about 1 hour less, however i enjoy the ride and esp.. with friends so i'll be taking the adVENTURE on this day.

N3FOL Posted April 15, 2009 Share #21 Posted April 15, 2009 Weather forecast for Gettysburg on Saturday: Partly Cloudy, 69 degrees. Should be a great day! Please count me out on this ride. I originally thought my schedule is wide opened for this Saturday, but my daughter reminded me about her Open House on Sat. AM as well. We are looking around for Colleges and Universities for her and I think this is an important event for her and I should be there. Have a great time this Saturday. Ride Safe Everyone.
