Check out our past rides: 2004   2005   2006


By popular demand, we've changed the format and no longer have two groups meeting somewhere in the middle of the country.  We now have one group starting in one place and returning there 9 days later. It will be a meander through New England. The mileage will average around 250 miles per day, giving us plenty of time to stop at scenic locations, take leisurely meals and meet up with friends and folks along the way.  

Here's the route for 2007:

     
Day 1
7/29
  Leave Philadelphia on I-76 through PA via I-476
I-81 to Whitney Point, NY.
Then Route 79 to Ithaca, NY
Route 89 up the west shore of Lake Cayuga and over to Syracuse.
     
Day 2
7/30
  Syracuse to Ogdensburg via the shore of Lake Ontario
then Rte 416 to Ottawa       
     
Day 3 7/31   Ottawa to Ogdensburg via 416. 
Hwy 68 to Colton.  Hwy 56 south to Hwy 3.
