3 hours away from NYC???? :thumbsdown: :thumbsdown:
That's not a Meet.
That's not a Meet.
I don't expect 60 cars to come. That's fine with me. This will be a real serious driver's meet. I wouldn't want 60 cars on those mountain hairpins as they are very dangerous and challenging. It is really easy, if not very careful, to lose control. This road tests drivers like no other I have ever experienced within an easy driving distance from NYC. And it is so isolated that traffic was ultra light and there was not one police car.
Do you know who was on the road? Sport bike riders with Go Pro cameras on their helmets.
If the pics are my word are not enough as to how good SR 125 is, here are the reviews of the road on the net: http://www.motorcycleroads.us/roads/pa125.html and http://www.motorcycleroads.com/routes/Nort...t/PA/PA_7.shtml
Let the good times roll!

i am jealous.
there are great roads in FL, but just for scenery. beaches, palm trees, highways that go for miles elevated over the water... but NOTHING challenging. it is all flat. none of those cool little towns in the hills.

Yes Florida roads are boring. But, on the bright side, you can roll on 20s without fear.

Well, maybe you could combine your visit to your mom in NY with this meet. Everyone wins that way.

I will definately have to plan something, with school starting up it wont be until the holidays, and i have no desire to drive my car with summer tires and 20s around the hills of long island. i may have to take 2 weeks off next spring and drive up.
