    PA Mts. Fall color ride Oct 9.

    Just thought I would throw it out there to see if there's any interest in putting together an October ride through the Pocono mountains during what should be the height of the fall colors. If so I'll start working on a route, schedule, and menu.
    Lets see now it only took 3 months to pull off the spring ride. We already have our first hints of color so the window of opportunity is limited to either the 9 or 16 of October. Then too you all know I don't ride in the rain.

    Bob, put me in for a maybe...that's all I can say right now. More likely that I'll have to pass though.

    Winter Migration

    I'll be departing Pa. for Florida mid October! I get the full effects of the Fall Foliage from Pa. thru Maryland, Virginia and portions of N.C.

    Keep us posted on a actual date

    I don't see anything on my calendar for the 9th so I'm in.
    I've spent most my money on Motorcycles and Women, the rest I just wasted.

    I've been thinking about the possible routes and things that may be of interest to the group. One thing that came to mind was a possible stop I make every year at a honey farm in the back hills. It seems they like to empty their heated tanks every fall and shut them down. So they run an end of year sale. Last year I paid $4.25 to fill a 16 oz. mason bottle with my choice of 3 varieties. All are totally natural with no additives. You do have to bring your own clean bottles. I bought 10 bottles for myself and friends. They all asked to double their orders for this year. I opened my last bottle a week ago.

    I like to sip honey tea with my apple pie in early winter by the fire place!

    That's just what I was looking for this month. The 9th weekend is a no, babysitting the g-Babies this weekend. I would love one the 19th through that weekend - I'd be IN on that ride.

    As long as its not raining when I leave I am in. If the 10 o'clock at Matamoras rest stop works, I will be at the gas station ( Beacon) at exit 11 around 8:30. Looking forward to a nice easy cruise day.

    I can be there for 9 or so Jeff. Will have to leave here around 5:30. I think your 3 hours, if I recall. I just saw rain for late Sat , early Sunday though. That could affect me. Hoping not. Want to ride with you guys again.
