Definitely tonight, I had to run my kids around so I didn't get toride today,
the past 2 days were fantastic though.
Do you ride in Sussex county much?
Have you ever gotten up to"The Chatterbox" at Rosses corner (15 and 206)?
They do a Thursday night meet, I believe it's done for the season now though.

I meet a guy in the local Star Riding & Touring chapter for Central Jersey and I've been doing a TON riding with themout West NJ along the farms near Flemington. Every once in a while I'll head up to Hacketstown or Budd Lake to visit friends but its rare. Sometimes in the summer I'llride up 15after work and come back home the long way, 206 to 287. Mostly I just commute the 100 miles back and forth to Edison. Gotta love 30-40mpg.
The last 2 years Ive been lucky enough to do a NewHope to Easton along River Road or a Port Jervis along 94 toHawks Nest then High Point along the way back. What Im really wanting to start out on the east coast (somewhere between Jersey Cityand Edison) Then head out toNewhope. From there up611 up to 209through the gap to Port Jervis(97). Then back home along 17through Harriman and finally 9w along the Hudson back to civilization. I would probably need to carry a spare gas can and itwould be an ALL DAY All around the northern part ofJersey ride but I think it would be awesome this time of year!!! It may have to wait till next year to get a god group together but I def want to do it one day (in a group-no fun riding by yourself)

Hey Anthony, how you been man!?
I Might could do the 26th. I'll check with the "Events Coordinator" AKA wife. Hope its not TOO cold.
I REALLY really need to rig a GPS to the bike so I could go exploring more.
Heres my idea GoogleMaps

Nope, it wasn't me. I wish i could have gone out early this week, you are right it was perfect weather and scenery. I don't get out much on the weekdays. Been to Chatterbox, i like it there and riding around that part of NJ. I have not been on Thursday night. Will have to check it out next year.
Rob, how have you been man, it has been a while. If you are serious about that ride i would be interested also. The Hamburg to Port Jervis and Warwick stretch is nice.

**** Binu, what the **** do you do for a living that you move so much. lol.
Well, my zipper on my jacket just ripped and buying a new one is not an option right now and my tailor said it will be a week or two till he can get to it (I dont trust anyone else) So, im not riding anywhere for a while.
Theres always spring.

hey rob, good to hear from you again. i don't want to know how you ripped your zipper on the jacket. i hope its from a loving wife like mine who feeds us well. (us jolly folk). as for binu. he's a porn star for a living. thats why he moves so much. you have to switch up from steak to chicken to lobster every now and then lol. that is a great ride. i have done close to that route before. if i go i am going to use the honda . we do need to get the gang together again. even if we dont ride the bikes there are some bike shows coming up at the somerset center soon. we can all get together for that. just so you have it my number is 201-779-3958. talk to you later.

Actually its my mother in law's fault. Shes taken over cooking since she moved in with us. DamnI love that woman! Too bad there is nothing sexy about her in any way shape or form or I'd have married her instead. To **** with the fact shes 20 years older than me. lol

Ant, you are too funny. Keep us posted and let us know about those shows.
Rob, sucks that the jacket ripped...till the spring it is then. BTW, do you work near the rockaway mall. I saw a midnight parrked across the way from the mall a few weeks ago...is that you?

i was up in that area on sat. morning. i live in edison, but my sister lives in vernon. so i'm up there at least once a month(rt's 287,80,15 and 94). i found a great place to ride up there, off of 287 north is a road called skyline drive has some beautiful views and nice twisty roads. it's up near oakland.

Hey Rob, That ride looks great... It would be of a stretch for me to get there but it you can get it together I would love to go, one thing I think you would like is when you get to Doodletown hang a left and go up Perkins Memorial Drive I never did it on a bike but trust me it would be amazing and the view at the top cannot be beat. I grew up in stony point and used to go to Bear mountain and Harriman all the time, 7 lakes drive is nice and so is central valleythe only part of the trip that might be a little iffy is 9W through Havestraw lots of traffic and not really scenic if you know what I mean. It's been many years since I had a chance to go home it would be nice to get back up that way.
Yeah, I know this thread has been asleep for a while...
But so have I...
If it was a flat black midnite it could've been me, that's about the time I go home from work at the Mason St. Pubin Lk. Hopatcong, I live in Branchville and ride most every day, year round

I bet that is some nice riding up in northern NJ. I used to live in Hamburg a while back and worked in Franklin. I really liked it there I would love to ride up there next summer and go to sunset mountain or high point,I used to drive up there all the time with the wife and kids boy I miss it there.

It looked like an '07 Indigo Blue. The rider was heading south on 181 toward Hopatcong. Anyhow, you're from Branchville?
I'm in Stillwater over towards Culvers Lake area. Was that you I spoke with at theChatterbox during a Thusday meet.
I spoke with you for a bit, had the '06 red warrior.
