Lots of good roads that way, or at least I have heard. As for distance I came home from Battleboro in one day and when it was in Glen falls I did that in one day. (All interstate mind you)
Three days there and three days back would be a nice rally in it self. (moving rally of sorts) Trailer? LOL Who does that!
You guys decide where and I'll see if I(we) can make it.Tom

As a card carrying member of the Iron Butt association your comments are duly noted. Not everyone is a glutton for punishment like you.
I am done with 18 hour riding days. we should get together for some route planning over the winter once we know where we are going.

I Agree. Planning the route to get there is also fun especially if you have the time to avoid the slab atleast some of the way.
