Anyone have some free weekends before Halloween?


If you did't go to Carlise please "roll call" yourself. I think there are alot more of us this time around.

edit #1 10/23
-Me and Rich have been thinking it over...Him and I +NJ people are the extreme points of "intrest" of this "group" [no loger a GS group], but geographicaly Allentown is smack dab in the middle. So I figure we could:
Head up 512N to 80W to 81S to 78east [interstates used for general direction if we get lost we'll just call the cops :lol:  or get on the closest highway].....basicaly it's about a 120mile loop up and around PA.

I'm going to pull some resources and see what mimicks the interstate directions and then see what gets twisty and what parks and all are along the way.

It's not looking good, man. All I hear are crickets  

If not before the riding season is over, let's tear it up next season. w00t, w00t!  

Bundle up and get out there!

Watch out for wet leaves...

so, I need to put my old rearsets/brake back together, been avoiding riding on the CBR pegs cause they are a PITA on my knees  

Just checkin' in wit my NE peeps!  We had a hell of a time together and I want promises that we can do it again!! You guys are awesome people.

You got a promise from me Amanda  

We've got all winter to plan a good Spring/Summer '06 Meet  

You all sound like the riding season is over..........we have at least another month or two.  Lets still try to get together.........maybe alittle closer to the Jersey area.........

I was thinking the same thing...Unless it's snowing I'm riding  well maybe w/o the shades :lol:

I should have my bike motor back together by mid next week, paint/body work the week after, a few test drives...inspection....ya make me available december 1        w/o forseen delays


Defently going to plan a trip this summer. I'm all about going up to NJ, through NY then back down through PA....or something like that.....I hear something about the last weekend in April will be beautiful *licks finger and sticks it in the air to record wind/weather information*    yup


That whole amusement park Idea is still on my mind personaly....

im game for a brisk ride!

next saturday.. neone up for a ride?

give me 14more days...I've gone from frame/motor/parts everywhere to bike w/o plastic last week and should have it up and running in no time...

IN all HONESTLY let get another Carlisle thing moving some time in March 06'.......start putting in input for weekends that you already have something going on...

I was actually thinking about next season's "big gs meet" today. I was going to post up after I got some better ideas formulated, but I'll throw out what I got.

Do we want to:

a) Do another Carlisle trip. It was a big hit last year!

b) Do a more community based Meet n Greet. We could make it a camping / BBQ thing, as interest has been shown in that before. It would be cheaper than hotels and a lot more fun. We could pick a place close to an amusement park (mentioned previously), that is central to most everyone in the NE that wants to come, and of course use something like "MileByMile" to even scope out a scenic, curvy Group Ride. The possibilities are endless   . I think we need to be getting things planned atleast by Nov-Dec.

What do we all think?  :dunno:

Im down for both a ride this season and next. (If you guys dont mind a noob). For the big '06 trip anything with a hotel and im game. Do any of you NE gs-ers ever go to the americade in lake george, NY? That could always be a cool '06 trip for everyone.  I used to go all the time when i was a kid to check out the bikes, and im def goin next summer.  I missed it this year becuase i moved to PA, and didnt get my gs till it was over. Let me know if any of you want to meet up next summer in Lake George.

if someone coordinates a day ride this fall let me know: bargovic@gmail.com

ok here's some more percise ideas:

Meet in Allentown PA [kmart, someone tell me where that is agian?]
North on rt 309 up to Hazelton PA.
SW on rt. 209
North on rt 61
Interstate 81 West till Swatana State Park
Back on 209 this time east
South on rt 895
That will put us on I-78. This is the critical time to either head West for more enjoyment or East back to Allentown

So it dosn't look like i'm pulling rt #er out of my rearend here's the map linkhttp://www.mapblast.com/(hi4qgq55mqtnjs45ygds2145)/map.aspx?L=USA&C=40.60261%2c-75.47021&A=100.33333&P=|4E5|&TI=Allentown%2c+Pennsylvania%2c+United+States

LadyJules-u be the "local" Do you know of any roads that are in t he relm of just have to ride them...? your also now the amusement park specialist youve just been voted in

As you know Hershey Park just out side this "traveling loop" and I'm sure there must be something over/in/around Allentown. Any other points of intrest?


Please put in suggestions

this just in from the news room--- :lol:

err Bargovic your "local"

It dosn't matter noob or not...that's because were all noobs. Ya bunch of noobs with cop escorts going to a primary Harley Davidson Biker week event.    

not to familiar with anything south of me.  Im about 1 hour south of binghamton and 2 hours north of harrisburg.

yeah the amricade is mostly harleys.. but maybe 45% of the thousands of bikes are a mix of everything else.

I went to Americade this year, and have been going since a couple years back....its not really that exciting, Lake George is over-priced (about an hour from my house), but Warrensburg which is a bit north of there is fun. They have some good prices on leathers and gear but not too much in the metric bike line.  Lots of twisties up here and I know the area really well. The downside,  Lake George gets overrun by Goldwings and Harleys, plus they are freaking out and don't want to host it there next year. But if anyone's up for it, there always camping room in the cornfield  :lol:

+1    I know a few people that go and they said it is mostly a "Goldwing thing" with a few Harley's tossed in. Not that I mind GW's or Harley's, but I don't think this is ideal for the GS community.

Party at Pastrami's House! BYOB!    :lol:

True true. guess im over looking all the goldwings cause my friends that go all ride sport bikes, but they are the minority.  Plus im partial to the area.  Ticondaroga and bolton landing are the place to go for all the twistys!  and in ti its def not over crowded. (except for the hippies).

Ticonderoga is alot of fun, its more fun to loop from my house, up into Vermont up Bear Mountain and into the Green Mountains and then cut back over and come back down through there. I went on many many many trips up that way during the summer.

ooo camping.  im in for sure.   :mrgreen:   lets head north. i like it up there.  a 2 day trip would be fun
