    I live in western MA. Route 8 along the Farmington River is a nice ride. In Adams, MA there is an autoroad to the top of Mt. Greylock. (Tallest Mtn. in MA, which isn't saying much). Further north Rte 7 in VT is a nice ride. If you're into history the Bennington monument in, you guessed it, Bennington, VT is an interesting stop. Also Rte 100 in VT, goes all the way down through the state from Canada to MA, through the heart of ski country. All nice rides, if you're not in a hurry, without a lot of traffic.

    Sorry for nudging in here, but....
    Hey Argo, maybe we could hook up for some of those rides. I’ve done Rt 7, and a good chunk of Rt 100, but I know there’s a lot more to explore. I’ve ridden up the state lines from CT north too. I’d ride to you and take it from there. I’m probably 2 hours from your area.

    Thanks for the replies guys, those look like excellent suggestions! If it looks like that region ends up being our trip I'll be sure to let you know. Thanks again!

    wjduke: I am up for any rides out this way. I don't ride on interstates preferring more country roads. If you came out this way, we could take Rte 8 down into CT, and find a way across back towards you. Then I could split off and head home. If that interests you let me know. My schedule changes every week, so it might be difficult to pick a time to ride but I'm definitely interested.

    Might have to be around August. I’m planning a western ride with a friend from Charlotte in July. Have to concentrate on that right now. I have an odd schedule also. I do charter bus trips and don’t always get to make plans too far in advance. We’ll try. It’s always hard to plan these things in my experience.
