    Saturday Ride Through CT, MA, NY.

    Hey Everyone,

    Thought I'd post it for anyone who's interested. I'm setting up a ride through Northern CT, Southern MA, and some very nice Twisties up in New York on Saturday. I'll probrobly leave at about 11:00am , and ride all day. 200+ miles. I'll be stopping here and there for pictures (writing a review for a magazine), but otherwise, it'll just be riding. I figure we'll ride for a couple hours, stop somewhere for a late breakfast/lunch and then head off for the rest of the day. If anyone wants to meet me anywhere along the way, feel free to post. If you want to meet me in bristol, you can meet me at the Exxon station off Rt 6, right near where Route 6 and Route 69 intersect. I'll wait until 11:30 for riders, and then I'll take off with anyone who decided to tag along.

    Ride rules:
    -everyone can ride at their own pace. Slow, fast, insane. Doesnt bother me.
    -At every turn, or interesection, stop and wait for the slower riders, so anyone behind doesnt get lost
    -I pass on the double yellow where it is safe. Like I said, you can all ride at your own pace. Its up to you.
    -If your going to split off and go your own way, make sure you tell someone so we dont double back trying to make sure you didnt wreck.
    -If your going to pass another biker, wait for him to waive you on before passing. (especially in the twisties).

    On that note, anyone is welcome to join.

    Will you be riding east of Hartford? I think Bristol is about 2 hours away from me. If there are any closer meetings places that would be preferred.

    We can change the meeting place if you'd like. Maybe meeting up in Avon/Simsbury would be better for all parties involved?

    Read the above, but probrobly about 11:00, if everyone decides that avon/simsbury is a good place to meet.

    I wont really be swinging too far east in Mass. I'll probrobly shoot up into Mass from Simsbury, and then shoot west, and then down through northwestern CT, and then down through NY. Now that we're starting from Avon, it changes things a bit, but not much.

    I'm willing to shoot off somewhere in MA and meet you.

    Emailed a few other riders, not sure on ride yet. Given short notice, its tough to organise. I thought Bristol was a bit closer, but it farther west. Might meet up if others want to do long ride.

    Don't know where I am riding Saturday
