    New York

    I had to drive my dad to Buffalo so I got a trailer and brought my bike.

    I will be here for a couple weeks before heading back to Texas. Been thinking about riding through New England, then down the east coast and back through the south.

    Any ideas about things to see and do?

    Planning on the Dragon and Barber Museum.

    A really nice scenic ride would be to take the Skyline Drive from Front Royal, VA....which turns into the Blue Ridge Parkway at Waynesboro, VA and runs all the way to Cherokee, NC and the Smokies. It will put you pretty close to the Dragon and also a lot of nice riding in the area. Total length will be close to 600 miles. Watch your speed...it's NP land.

    why don't you post some details of when and where you plan on going?

    your original post is vague. And Eric did post a suggestion.

    New England is a big place. Almost as big as TX.

    There's plenty of fellas around. Post something specific.

    Most of us heading to KotF 27th ish

    If you're doing an all-inclusive New England tour, stop off for an ice cream at Kimballs http://www.kimballfarm.com/locations.shtml . Ask for a small, it's almost a pint.

    If you're going thru central CT, let me know, we can meet up.

    See you at KOTF!
