Cool- Was looking on the map and Philly is just to "city" like for a group ride, traffic control and our group getting cut in half....And it's alot harder to make a u-turn as a group when you get lost<<that's all I'm going to say about that >>

but.....yea ride by the HD factory in lancaster

Seriously lets get this thing rolling out.---I'm going with hotel/motel tho over a tent again....I hate luggage except for my rain gear
but the "natural" elements were so fun and the camp fire......... .....and the 32pack  (good times) RIP




MY UPDATES:
JULY 7 & 8 this trip is for me (either way me and gf are going) riding for the weekend.

I was thinking on Saturday go to hershey park then a group ride on Sunday and people can break off to go home their separate ways.


rt. 30 over to York then down rt. 15 is great "amish" country then cut down on 116 to 216 through Hanover to rt. 74 the 372 then 272 N back into lancaster.....that should be about 100miles.....I strongly vote to take a side trip after Gettysburg and go down on rt. 77/64 through Emmitsburg and out through twisty windy Coctin Mt. State Park then jump back on rt. 15 @ Gettsyburg and continue on


FYI  there is a Holiday Inn, country Inn, Hilton, Travel Inn, Americas Best Value, and a Hampton Inn in Lancaster on rt. 30 according to yellow book....



LMK we could get a group discount on Hershey park tickets if we have 15 definite going......

just some number crunching


Atlantic city  (NJ)    to      Lancaster      150miles
Hagerstown (MD)    to      Lancaster      120miles
Baltimore     (MD)    to      Lancaster      75miles
Williamsport  (PA)     to     Lancaster      130miles
Rochester     (NY)      to   Lancaster       300miles



I think it's feesiable

This is sounding good.  I'm keeping an eye on this thread...

YES another Marylander ---now I won't be represent'n the state all alone

Oh snap, I'm all ears... Lancaster is a bit of a ride, but w/e.  I would like to do a ride by the Jersey shore, but there really isn't much good riding there, so PA probably is the best bet.

Definitely going to have to do something different this year though.  I don't mind camping, but the whole pouring rain and children's tent thing weren't so cool.  Maybe I can con someone to follow me with their car this time, hmmmm... 

If anyone from NY or Northern NJ/PA wants to ride down, let me know.

dammit.

I'm in France from June 30 to July 14.  It would be a little to far for me to make a side trip and meet up 

I swear I am star-crossed when it comes to these get-togethers, I will never make a group ride 

Yey!

  -Anti 

I'll have 2 kids by then. 

I don't think my wife would appreciate me ditching the new fam for a bike get together.....I can always try. 

Its ~340 miles for me...thats a bit farther than I think I can go... Guess I'm going to the Mass meet 

I hear ya it was 376miles to White Haven for me....I put my bike in my p/u truck which worked out well because it rained non-stop on the way there and then on the way....but it was clear the day the group took a ride.

Hey here's hershey INFO

one day is $45.95
or group rate for 20 is.....well I'll call if we can get that many people

IF you push it back a week let me know!! I don't have plans that weekend yet (July 14th). 

Hey all,

This is looking good.  I'm pretty free all July, but it would be nice to push it to the weekend of the 14th.  I'm on vacation from the 29th to the 4th, so it would be nice to get a breather in.  But either way I should be up for it.



   

I'm actually in the same boat as pdg108, I'll be out of the country for the week prior to this trip.  I can make it for the 7th but I'd to get some home time in, so moving back a week would be nice.

i'll have to read details but i think im in. and what about amanda? you cant forget her!!

does she still have a bike?
