There is a whole plaza right off the exit (right off the exit if you are heading 495 north). There is a panara in there. A little further up on the left is a D&D and I think there may be a McD's down there somewhere too, not sure though.

Thoughts on time? As of now, it is supposed to be raining until about noon. If that stays in place, would the group be willing to move it to an afternoon ride maybe? Just a thought...

[Josephd14]

I'm Seeing a 10% chance of a shower in the AM but not likely.. other then that cloudy in the morning and sun in the afternoon..
don't look that bad, there saying it might even stop raining later today??

Dunkin Donuts sounds good.. i'l have to find something. un don't know if the group i'm riding down with want to eat up here before we go or down there.. i say down there so we are sure to not be late.. I just hope it is a LITTLE WARM it's been very cold riding in a sweat shirt..

I 2nd that!!

IF this route to get to 62 is not set in stone I have a back way route to take us up to 62 in Hudson that is decent as for twistys and little traffic. 140 has heavy traffic and LEO's. Just a thought. I wouldn't mind showing the way, and once we get to the desired route the original leader can take over.

good roads around the Quabbin should be looked at too!
Like Shutesbury road, 32, 66,112, 116, 20, 8.

When we get to the back side of the Quabbin I may split off to make it to my favorite road above route 2! Anyone is welcome to join if you want some more riding!

So where are we meeting @ 9 off 140?? D&D, McYucks ?
I vote for either McYucks or D&D's.

Who else is bringing the Fuzz Detectors? My V1 will be active/
Anyone have a chatterbox? Wondering if I should bring mine?

Hey Mike, What time you heading out in the am? Maybe I'll meet you if I wake up early enough.

See you guys in the am.

If you know good twisties, let's do it.

Above route 2....is that the road....I think ..78? ...that takes you towards Swanzey, NH? I know there is an awesome run up there through some state park or something. Hit it once, SICK twisties.

The three guys I am riding up with are gonna hit the D&D up there before heading to the Mobil at 9am.

[Wishbone]

so is that mobil at 9 or mcnastys at 9? where and when? im confused

[shannon9339]

the mobil at 9. From my understanding, for those getting there early, some are going to d&ds first. I am not 100% that there is a McD's, but I am on the D&D's but maybe some people going to both. There is a panera also in the plaza. Either way, mobil at 9, right?

[ChicknStripEatr]

right.

[shannon9339]

whoo hoo! we have a firm plan, lol

[Josephd14]

Sweet lets do this... after 2 weeks with no bike and a rainy weekend i just want to ride..

[Half Squid]

MY Idea for after the route around the Quabbin was to hit Shutesbury road to 116 working our way up and over to 8A !

After that which takes you up to VT, loop back either 8A again or 112 down to Route 2 to head home. Time we get there will determine if we even make it that far. At least 9AM is a good start!

See ya'll at the Mobil. I will try to make the D&D by 8:30 if anyone is interested.

VAA I will most likely just slab it to Franklin on 495. Stop and shop meet at 7:50-8AM if you want to ride there with me

[Josephd14]

Hey you guys/gals just wanted to post up a pic of me so you'll know me when you see me.. Remember I LOVE YOU!!

[typeone]

hey peoples. i may try to join in on this ride, i was planning to hit some of the same roads + weather is looking perfect for tomorrow. gonna slab it down 495 to the meet spot. i'll be on a black Buell.

now i just need to wake up early enough.. .

[vaa]

Ok. I'll be at the S&S @ 8

[Josephd14]

Nice just woke up to go and pick up my Licenseless Brother at work and weather looks good....

[Half Squid]

I am ready. Vic see you @ 8, see the rest of you soon.

Mike

[typeone]

damn, i knew i wouldn't wake up. late night.. . i can't make Franklin but maybe i'll see you guys out on the road. the big purple guy should be a dead giveaway

have fun!

[shannon9339]
