Rick and anyone else from west of Hamilton
You should ride to Paris , take a picture at the post office then ride to Dacre . It's only a little bit past Barry's bay , Take a picture of the post office then you can tell everyone at the rally that you have just finished the Paris Dacre rally

Route to XSEast 2009 from Ontario
Hi Blue Giant and others,
The plan for the SOXS has dwindled down to.... Tom & Phil's excellent ride to Vermont. As reported HamJam is staying home now Lennart has decided he too is staying home. Gary & Erin are coming in the van & trailer. Tom & Phil are to meet in Gananoque for Thursday night.
route as stated before is to cross 1000 isle bridge and 81 to Watertown abandoning interstate to head through the hills to Tupper Lake and on to Lake George. What's for Lunch? to arrive Brattleboro before 6 with time for a shower & Beer before dinner.
Suggestions of time and place to meet for lunch ?
Phil on the Maxim passing everything but a gas station

Whatcha think?

Mapquest says 4 hours from Gananoque so we should be there in time for lunch too. BK as the meeting point we will head for. Perhaps something more appetizing will be visible when we get there. Nothing came up on a web search. Will need to be a quick lunch anyway as we will still have a long way to go. I too prefer the backroads but my routing has TWo sections of Interstate at about 20 miles each.

Sounds like a plan. Interstate shouldn't be a problem.
