no prior route planning at all. When Susan asked where I was going, I just kinda gestured SE.  ;)


Randy...I always find that my best days of riding are done with this exact approach.  "I'm not sure where I'm going until I get there..."  The best things in life might just be around a corner you never planned on taking in the first place.   :good2:

Yes sir, there's some meat there with them potatoes! My only caveat is that it's difficult to make it as far without planning. But it's usually so much more fun, that who cares! Nice thought on such a triste morning, Thanks

Looks like a lot of fun, thanks for the pics and the play by play... that was a lot of riding!! that early morning late night stuff is for the birds tho.  .. I think a few of us had the same plan..

I am from the Niagara area and  I ended up on Pottstown PA (near Philly) myself, for a quick ride and to visit my daughter....that was a 1400 km  900 mile round trip with a lot of hwy riding.. not my favourite riding, but it was great to be out for a ride in November so whatever.  I was pretty leary of cars and deer but it was uneventful.

always great to head to the backyard (states) and enjoy some good roads and meet some great Americans .

Too bad your schedule was packed fjohnnie..would have been good one.

GMTA, eh?
Pottstown... home of Yuengling (semi-official beverage of the East Coast FJ Rallies)   :drinks:
I'm looking for a way to make an epic blitz-tour or two in 2016... maybe a lap around the Great Lakes.  Been looking at that for years.  :yes:

 The last minute go where you end up trips are the best. Those two days were awesome for us here in the Niagara peninsula s well. Good for you for the trip and the report. We all need inspiration occasionally and that trip report inspires me.

Very nice Randy. I enjoy reports like these.
Good on you!
