    Another Trip Up The Rock Pile?

    I'm taking next week off and kinda tossing around the idea of a few moto runs, maybe heading somewhere within a few hundred miles and spending a couple days...

    I'd really like to hit Mount Washington again next week. I dunno what it is, just something about it. At the very least, hitting some of the notches is a definite...

    Possibly riding to Lake George, NY for a couple days...

    A deep Maine run isn't outta the question, maybe look deeper into the "Four Points Of Maine" ride...

    There's a few reasons Monday may not work for me...

    - As everyone knows, I'm not one for long term forecasts. But at this point "they" are calling for afternoon showers Monday. If that holds, they won't be letting bikes up. The Observatory won't even forecast that far out.

    - Big Shirl will likely never go up on a motorcycle again. She's working Tuesday, so that leaves the day wide open for me. Again with the long term forecasts, Tuesday is currently looking like a pretty nice day.

    Another reason Tuesday may look best for me is we're exploring a couple mini moto tours. Packing up the bike & heading out for a couple nights. Maybe hit some of the Four Points of Maine, maybe head up to Lake George, NY, maybe head up state NH. That'll likely happen towards the mid-to end of the week.

    Re: Another Trip Up The Rock Pile?

    All around, Tuesday is looking good for a squidly ride to the mountain. I still have to work out what time I can make it to base, but it's looking like 10:00 - 10:30ish. Which should work out well as the sun will be hitting it's height by the time we make it to the top.

    I'll be in the dirt parking lot around the time mentioned. Again, it's the DIRT PARKING lot. NOT the little parking area near the toll house. Not sure how that got misconstrued last time.

    I may have a couple locals joining me, at least one on a trike. Who's in?

    Love to do this but would have to stay over somewhere, probably not easy on a holiday week. Even our place in Goshen is a three hour ride.

    I’m going to pass on this one, unfortunately. I’d have to Moto around Boston during rush hour to get up there, and would likely be in the same boat coming back.

    I wish I had seen your edit before we shoved off! Luckily, we ended up meeting Jon Boy at the summit...

    Hows the traffic on the auto road during the week? We'll be up there in mid July.
