Meh. I go upstate on the weekends to visit the g/f. I won't be home until Sunday evening (and I have to take the car this time). If you do any dinner runs during the week, post up!

The more the merrier, I could use meeting some new people to ride with in the area.

My route that I was thinking about was recommended to me is as follows: (I'm open to suggestions as well)
Route 1 South to Route 3 Route 3 to 926 926 to 82 82 across to 842 842 North to the Market Place.
Ride home is open for suggestion as well.

Rt 1 out of Philly and for about 8 days worth of riding 'til you get into Delco will suck donkey balls. Rt. 3 is no fun. It's chock full of high-speed sections between 99382772 red lights. But you have little choice without heading pretty far West out of Philly first. Where in town are you?

No real good way outta Philly - View Larger MapThat might work; but again it'll take forever + a couple of mins. IMO you might be better off cutting your losses and just getting into W/C as quick as possible (Eg. 76-202). Then hit up some nice back roads down that way.

I also like the idea of riding 23 out to 113 and then just weaving my way down. Either way, I have a friend coming in from Harrisburg to ride down with and we're going to make a day of it. I'm just exploring the area, new here.

This should be the plan. There's lots of nice stuff out this way, but nothing really fun between W/C and Philly without going much farther West.

FYI - I've been to Northbrook Market a couple of times before. Just make sure your saddlebags have enough room for the stuff you'll be bringing back.

Nate, is that you? There cant be too many guys from Manayunk that have a CB1000?  I'd meet up with you if I wasnt going to the Norton Meet in Washingtons Crossing. I checked out the website for the Northbrook Market Place and it looks like they have pretty good food. Let me know if you head down that way again.

Uhhhhmmm, No Eric, it's someone else.......yeah, yeah....it's someone else. No affiliation with the aforementioned Nate.  Yeah, I'll let you know....maybe we'll turn the train towards the Norton meet.
