For those of you nearby that have given up on that Ephrata thread, I'm going to show 12sdrag and a few freinds some of my favorite local roads on Sunday.

Here are my plans which are certainly open to suggestion:

Meet at the Wawa in Avondale, PA (Rt 41 and Baltimore Pike near the Rt 41 exit of Rt 1) at 9am. From there, head south briefly into DE hitting Rts 7/82/100. Then back into PA on 100 and hit Rts 842/841/52/82. Depending on how things are going, we can head into Northern ChesCo, above Coatesville, on 82 and run through French Creek park on 345 or just stay down in the Southern part of the county below Rt30.

I realize 9am might be a bit early for those further away. We can move it back if you want but we risk increased traffic later in the day. I also have some family commitments later in the afternoon.

Post up if any one is interested or has any comments.

Chris - take 10 like you are coming to my house. Go left on 41. The Wawa will be right after you cross over Rt 1.

Paul - I'll try to get a pic of an amish buggy just for you. If not, I'll at least try to get one of a road apple!

See ya fellas at 9 on Sunday.

Avondale? That's only about 20 minutes from here - between Woodinville & Redmond.

12sdrag,

What time are you leaving? I can meet you and ride up with you.

You're near Davidsonville aren't you?

Gary, glad you are coming. I live 20 min north of Davidsonville I live in Millersville I can see interstate 97 from my home. From 495 take 50 west to 97 north to exit 10 Benfield Blvd. Make left at the stop light ,at bottom of exit that will be Veterans hwy. Go through first light and you will see an Exxon on your left can meet you there at 7:45. It should take alittle less then an hour to get to Rob`s. If this works for you? If not give me alt.

I'm a newb here but I've been lurking quite a bit since I now have a Bandit 400. I'm in Chester Springs, PA.

FYI most of 23/345 going out to French Creek State park has just been repaved and very pristine. I just was out there for a mtn bike ride and couldn't help opening up the car a bit considering what a mine field it used to be.

I'm hoping to make your ride tomorrow Pitter, looks like you know alot of the roads I know, it should be a good time.

Sounds like a good group!

Tomac - the guys I usually ride with are mostly up in northern Chesco. It wouldn't be a Sunday up there without a romp through 345.
