A group ride would be great, hope fully it will happen. Just don't want to leave anyone behind like last time.

Re:Memorial Day Weekend Gathering Arundel Maine 12 Months ago  
Okay... looks like I'm riding up alone. Neither of my R* ridin' buds want to make the trip. One for health reasons, the other cause he's buildin' a garage. Fine!

I hope to leave my place about 7:30am Saturday. It's 125 miles. I figure about 2.5 hours. Saturday am traffic through Boston ought to be okay, won't it??? I'm thinking of going right through the Tunnel to hear my pipes!

If someone KNOWS that Sat am traffic through Boston is BAD... say so as right away, for my sake, please!!!

Okay, Geno, thanks.

I never make that trip, and I just thought it would be okay. 495 goes right by me, just a couple of miles away. I just may take it... or, I just may have to find out about Saturday am in Boston myself!
