[QUOTE="Randy, post: 170117, member: 443"] Good roads + good people = good fun. We're in the early planning stages of a gathering of Sport Touring enthusiasts looking to explore some of the great roads in central Pennsylvania. A few of us met yesterday morning to start talking about the ride. You might recognize some of the names of the people I met with. For those in the east/northeast that have a history on Connies, most likely you know the name Russell Flemming. For those that follow the Iron Butt rally and other LD rallies, most likely you know the name of Eddie Phelps. Some of the other people whose names might be familiar to some who have associations with other organizations - Greg Puterbaugh - COG, Mike Montville - VStrom/BMW, Cyndi Corn - BMW/Triumph, Rick Shirk - COG/Triumph, Fred Huganir - BMW. We're still in the early planning stages, but, here's where we are so far. As of now, the date is Sunday, July 1, 2007 Ride will start and end in the Carlisle/Mechanicsburg, PA area. For those not familiar with the area, Carlisle is at the intersection of the PA Turnpike (I-76) and I-81, so, it's very easy to get there from many different areas. We will have multiple routes planned out - in the neighborhood of 150-250 miles (and maybe some other rides, i.e. longer distance, shorter 2-up routes, covered bridges, sight seeing, etc) We already have interest from riders from North Carolina to Canada. This will not be a chase-the-taillights ride. Rather, everyone will get their turn-by-turn route sheet the day of the meet and are free to run the route they want at the pace they desire. I've been on few of these types of rides and it really works out good. It doesn't take long to find people that you want to, or don't want to, ride with. Or, you just ride by yourself at your own pace. If you have any comments, questions, etc., or if you think you might be interested in joining us for the ride, please let me know. [/QUOTE]
