I'll be riding out again this year, and am coming from the Pittsburgh area. Will likely super-slab the whole trip out and back, since a casual trip on secondary roads would take a couple days. I am behind a bit, in that I have not made reservations or anything yet. But, given the dates of the event, I will likely head out from home around sunrise on 6/15. Last year, that departure time put me at my destination around 6:00PM WI time. |

Sorry slow in responding here. Life is hectic right now. Please PM for quick response, since that will go to my phone. Rkc00, Somerset is my hometown...What ya heading there for? Not really on the way to NY, since it is so far south. Got reservations for host hotel, and currently checking out Sunday I think. There could be potential coersion to stay a bit more though...What are your plans for the return trip, in terms of time you are planning to consume? Also, are there any activities on Sunday (6/20)? I thought that was just a travel day? |

I can leave on Sunday also. I will be flying into homecoming on friday morning. I am picking up a 1125R from one of the Badweb Members and riding it home. I am taking the next week off. I have family in Somerset. My dad was born and raised in Listie. Will be stopping there for a visit. I am actually not in a rush to get to somerset. If the ride from homecoming to somerset can be backroads that would be great. Also would like to stop in Highland HD/Buell. I have bought my last 4 bikes from them. Also Thunder in the valley starts on Thursday and I would like to hang out for that. I was asked to be the official photographer for the event from the people running it but I told them I was not sure if I could do it. Since I made the decision to go to homecoming I am going to try and talk with them when I am there. I will take some photos while I am there to submit to them. |

Just interested if your route takes u near Fort Wayne, IN. google maps says it's 250 miles, about 5 hours. but i suppose u 2 will be on US90, so i could head south to meet u or we could just meet up in say Gary, IN. ahhh, never mind, US90/80 would put me right through all the toll roads and Chi town which i hate. i want to stick SW of Chicago, then north on more back roads. |

I'll be heading out with one other guy around 6am on the 16th from the Ellwood City area if anyone wants to tag along. We're planning on coming home on the 20th. |

For anyone that will be traveling through the Chicago area, I have a friend that lives there who warns that I-57 and I-94 have major construction that will likely have huge delays. Be advised when planning your route! |
