5thGenJim

Where does the line form? Me next!!!!

0700 Hrs... Drizzly rain but it's warm...

Six 5th Gens and a Duc rolling in to New Paltz, likely around 3:00, give or take. Painter, you and your buddy remember to wear the distinctive headgear and jacket so the southern Viffer contingency can pick us out of a crowd.

Rice = my new hero. Dude, how do you walk with balls that big??

What's the humidity cut off for the Whhooooo-eerzzzzz.

Weather.com for New Paltz, NY... Saturday - highs in the upper 50's and lows in the lower 40's and a slight chance of showers. Wearing my thermals, I guess...

If you go Saturday, that would be awesome - but I think you should just do what you want... seriously, you get used to going home to get yelled at. .........................no, I don't, she doesn't yell. She may look at me all funny and shit but she won't yell. yet... Eventually, they all yell.

My only ask... Okay, other than a "no himalayan goat path" rule... Budget some time to stop and shoot some pics, etc.

Can I throw these on my Garmin 255w? Just fer giggles 'n grins.

Pocono Steve?? Bueller??? Bueller??

Hopefully, he's washed it since he saw sasquatch.

Looks good, Timmy. We'll have to figure out where/when to meet up. It'd be easy-peasy if you shot up I-83. The ride would pick back up on that map around Bethlehem/Easton. It's about the same mileage/time. But, if ya gotta go that route for some reason, we can meet up there (Bethlehem/Easton) for chow/break/smoke and run. NBD.

I'm good with that, too. A general plan is fine. Just doing the math. :-)

Excellent - we're talking slabin' it from here to there, then? It's about 4.5 hours from my AO to New Paltz going I83-I81-I78-I287-I87. If you roll in to the Ettoh around 0700 and with gas, smoke and food stops, that's just about a 1230 - 1300 ETA. You wanna see about meeting up with North Jersey contingency and backroad the last 1/3 of the ride? May have a couple guys riding with us, too - PainterBob and a buddy who live about 20 miles from here.

Seb - it's nothing special. Just the ride to work. Got the youtube account and posted it up in the gopro thread. But, this looks like a decent 'sweeper cam' vantage point:

It said it couldn't post due to cross domain policy restrictions... WTF? Hellz with it - I'm creating a YouTube Acct.

Hello??? Teach a brother to fish. How do I link to video (and can I link to photobucket video)?

If you have a problem, if no-one else can help, and if you can find them, maybe you can hire the Eh-Team. (I'd link to the video, but can't figure out this new forum software).

PM'ed ya.

I feel like a solid 'intermediate' rider and worry if 'intermediate fast' is too fast for me. But, meh, we'll see how I'm feeling. Maybe get Burns to run through the Gaps with me - Lambs Gap Rd; Miller's Gap, etc... lots of fun in the back country of Cumberland and Perry Counties...

Is that an intermediate and a long-intermediate maybe??

Took 12 minutes on the phone (lots of "Okay" and "ooooh, ummmm" coming out of Brian) to confirm the reservation. Once I gave Brian the confirmation code for the group, it set him into a tail spin.
