Way to go Ray. Head 'em up, move 'em out. 
You East Coast guy's sure like to sleep in. 
If you sleepy heads can get going a little earlier we could have an East Coast Dawn Patrol. Have a safe trip and enjoy.

Have a safe trip and enjoy. ..if I had my choice we'd be heading out no later than 7:00am. Less bikes and people fishing off the tiny little bridges we cross over on the twisties up in the mountains.

we've avoided that route...only took it once when we cut the ride short and headed toward 17 to find lunch.
how about if we took the circle and went north toward Sterling Forrest?? (toward Mort's)...those roads were repaved a year or so ago.

Ray any of those side roads off of 7 Lakes should be ok. Or at least in better shape than 7 Lakes. The one that comes onto 17W is quite fun. Lots of twists and dips, and some hairpin turns. If you guys go up to Morts, maybe I can meet you guys up there.

"Mountains" on the east coast 
Not much higher than a good speed bump.

i might even be able to drive my 914 to this. 4 mile test went without a hitch more to come. a gathering at my place would be great, bbq or whatever.

INJUN...follow the pelican link. There's a link on one of the posts showing the route we'll be taking. It'll go right past your place. If you don't join in, meet us in Greenwood Lake to show off your new paint job!!

I figured since we both missed the "dual-carb club" meeting a few weeks ago...this might make up for it!
