So, ben. Shall we meet at the rest stop on 128 north of the mass pike?

I'd like to stick with exit 25 like Degsy mentioned.. I know about the rest area/service plaza up at like exit 30... but that is north of Rt. 2. and both Rt. 3 and Rt. 225 through Bedford tend to be traffic jams.Originally posted by Mystery Squid
Guys, there's a rest area on 128N near Lexington/Bedford, you can't miss it, and it's the ONLY one..... It's a few miles north of the Pike exits...
I was hoping to meet up at exit 25 and then get off 128N well before that rest area to skip around Bedford.

OK, 6:15 off exit 25 rt 128

I was going to hit backroads & twisties up to Lowell rather than going on 128 or Rt. 3.Originally posted by Mystery Squid
Holy crap, I just noticed something, I get out of work tonight at 6pm, and I'm in Wellesley right off 128 one exit below the pike exit!
Heck, I'll meet up with you guys for my ride home, are you guys going right to Lowell, 128 to 3N? If so, I know some back roads around Bedford that will allow us to skip 128.... I'm right off of exit 21something in Wellesley...
I should be there at 6:15, if I'm not around, just go without me... Just saying this in case some last minute crap comes up.
You have to commute home to Lowell everyday and you are riding 128N to 3N and sitting in that horrible traffic jam all the time? I made it like 2 weeks of commuting on Rt. 3 before I started riding down random backroads trying to find ways to shortcut around the construction.
(Or is it not a jam right now heading north in the evening?)

so-o-o-... if you're so close, swing on by & say hi. some of us may still be thereOriginally posted by NHViffer
I have class tonight at UMass - Lowell (North Campus). All of about 1 mile from heritage. I have the Daytona today, too.
Problem is that I cannot commit to a time. I have a lecture and test tonight, so blowing it off will not work out. I should escape at about 8:30, or so. I would hope that y'all would be done posing and eating ice cream before then though.
My issue with these type events is that I have a motorcycle for RIDING - not hanging out at an ice cream place all evening.![]()
as for me, this is likely the only time I'll go there this summer... specifically 'cuz some of my buds from this site-- and some I haven't met yet-- will be there. once the usual circus cranks up, I'll prolly have better things to do on a Tues. nite. I've tried it, doesn't suit me, no biggie![]()
however, since the wx today is so awesome... and Quincy might not happen tomorrow... gives me an excuse for a quick li'l tune-up ride out to Lowell...
anyway: see ya there!![]()
...or not!![]()

Maybe I am just anti-social to some degree.. Trouble is that I don't get enough seat time on the bike as it is, so when I do get those moments to ride... I ride.Originally posted by JCzx12
Then don't go. Nobody's asking you to do it 7 nights a week.I didn't get a bike for posing either, but it's fun to hang out with friends and meet new members, etc. Not something I would do multiple times a week.
You may see what I mean when you are lucky enough to have a wife and kiddies (and house), blah, blah, blah... Still haven't gotten to the 1st service interval (500 miles) on the new bike.
I will try to stop by there, depending on what time I get out of class. I hope to meet some of you to put faces to the screen names.

Yeah, it's really pretty bad when it starts up. Doesn't suit me either.[i]

"Yeah, agreed, I probably won't be as packed as an ordinary "bike night", but you never know....
And yeah, that road is pretty decent... Some Squids and I blasted down it on Sunday... Most of it on one wheel.... (not me though!)
As for Lowell traffic, I hear ya...."

Excellent. I'll try and get there by 7:15 or so. Look for the squid on the red 6R and flag me down cause I'll prob be lost.Originally posted by Mystery Squid
If you take that exit 32 (Drum Hill rotary), and bear right like in the directions, a couple hundred yards to your right is a Plaza with a Walmart within it... Can't miss it.. The D&D is closer to the road, and the Walmart is set in the back. Some of us, myself included, are meeting some other NESR'ians there at around 7:30... then we're gonna head down to the Heritage...![]()

Great seeing everyone there last night. It was especially fun hiding behind the ice-cream stand until Oreo was gone.
