How about breaking the tradition and trying to make this a two-times-a-summer event? 

... let's do it again before the summer is over! What do you think?

If there is another Northeast Summer meet, you can likely count me in  . As long as it isn't August 6th, August 20th, or September 19th. 

And yeah, last year we had atleast 3 Northeast GStwin meets that I know of. Two of them were pretty small, and of course the big Carlisle Bike Fest. I went to two of them.

If anyone wants to set up another meet this summer - TAKE THE BULL BY THE HORNS AND DO IT!

yo how did the ur sprocket manage on the highway

It was ok, but it did rev high like Weaz said. I spent a lot of time in the 7-8k zone, 6th gear. It wasn't HORRIBLE, but you could tell the poor thing was working pretty hard.

in any case the next one should be at the jersey shore

I asked: "So, where is the jersey shore?" And y'all just laughed at me and said on the coast of jersey. Anyone got some better specifics?

We could do it at my house, kinda centralized between canada, connecticut, and mass so maybe more people could come. I've got 1200 acres and room for bikes inside.  Rich is already planning to camp on my lawn 

Yeah. Rich thinks this is a pretty cool idea. Maybe more of a New England Meet rather than a Northeast Meet.  You are OUT there, Pastrami, but that could be a good thing.

I'm up for just about anything, tho. 

Let's do it.

not to bad just about 5h away lol

If not to ride, then why did you buy your bike?  Saddle that sucker up with some camping gear and ride down here. Don't think of it as a "5 hour ride". Think of it as series of five one-hour successive rides. You gotta stop every 100 or so anyways.    And you won't be riding back the same day, so...you're golden 

And I'll bring the rain gear.........so we should be safe

I'd do another meet.

Late summer NJ Shore has some big-ass nasty flies that bite through your cloths!!  I guess some would find that kinky....................

where is that?

below 78 apparently

i wld definitely be in for jersey shore!!! 

hell yeah... we were thinking seaside heights (aka sleezeside): island beach state park is really nice and they have a great boardwalk with awesome food and lots of stuff to do when we're not riding 

i'd probably attend any meet in the NE, be it for a day or a weekend, just cause the last one was so awesome

Remember that one GS Ride we were on, the one where you lost your "tool pouch" under your seat?   Well, that road was 895. If you recall the gas station where we stopped for a while and then headed back... well if you would have continued on that road, it would take you to 125. I've been on it once. Lots of people ride that road... mixed stories. Lots of cops now too I hear. Several riders have lost their lives or had accidents on that road too... lots of very sharp turns to pay attention to.

I would be up for a "Joisey" get together



Chris

Sure....bring up the tool pouch      

That was a good ride, though. My first gstwin meet/ride! I'd be up for something like that again if someone were to set it up.

*cough hint cough hint*

rip rich, thpught id bump this to the top to enjoy a fun time in the latter part of his life.  My condolences

Its unreal how quickly things happen and change lives forever.... Rip
