2016 Road trip

[choptop]

Last year the Riding Club had a 10 day road trip to Yellowstone. I had a good time and some may have seen the video's that I recently posted from my GoPro. Had a good time and excellent weather. I want to go back their some day.

The itinerary for the 2016 was just posted , it goes east this time and I am, at this time, not sure whether I am going. I am posting the itinerary to get any input from you guys on the trip that may help me make a decision. Thanks in advance.18996

Seems like a pleasant trip. I am from PA, and the western part of the state the trip contemplates is very nice. PA is still 60% virgin forest, especially in the north and west. The part from Chicago to eastern Ohio is just plain boring, flat and not much to see. I do it every year on the annual trip to the Jersey Shore, and it never gets any better. Rest of the trip through MI should be great; coming down from upper MI along the Mississippi is really beautiful. If you do go hope you have a wonderful time.

Thank you Travelor, that is the kind of input I am looking for and because I don't know how much knowledge or lack of that our ride caption has, I will share all information w/him, whether I go or not.:yes:

I live in Western Pa. I can probably ride up and ride the area with you. Lots of forest roads. Kinzua Dam and Kinzua Bridge could be worth a ride to see when you go near them on your trip.
