Re:Annual trip to ME 1 Year, 8 Months ago  
Well, we leave in the morning and I pretty much need a whole new route. Looks like 9&100 in VT are going to be closed for a while. Thinking about cutting thru Mass on 20 8 and 143 to 9 to get to 91 and head north into vt and pick up 9 to 202. Really feel for the people of VT, really seems to be a mess up there

Brother it's a real mess. Yesterday I went for a little ride over that way. There are so many roads closed that you feel like your riding around in a maze.

The ride I like to take took about 3 times longer than normal because of all the washed out roads and bridges.

I haven't herd anything about RT 20 but I know parts of it were closed day before yesterday. Good luck.

Well, we made it to Maine. Took 20 out of Albany into Pittsfield, dropped south on 8 to 143 east. Was actually a really nice ride. Caught 9 over to I91 back up to 9 to cut into NH and rode that to 202 to 22 to 295 to 1. Only bad spot was west of Rotterdam, NY where the road had a nice layer of mud all over it. That'll make the butt pucker up!

Today we rode up to Arcadia National Park then down to Bentley's in Arundel for a little dinner. All in we did about 375 miles today and about 1000 so far for the weekend. I love this bike, but damn does the stock seat need a permenant vacation! Hope you are all enjoying the weekend as much as we are

We were there from like 7 to 9. Really liked the place, cool vibe to it.

Got back home tonight, last 330 miles home from Lake Placid were in the rain. I looked like a drowned rat, cause I melted my rain pants on the pipes yesterday. All in all, another great ride, 1800 miles in about 5 days. Time for a real seat though.
