I'm really Enjoying your Voyage. I have yet to do one and always wanted to, Thanx. Lots of rain today so ride safe man.... If your coming across Vermont into upstate NY you can take the ferry into NY @ Ticonderoga and ride all the local routes through the Adirondacks and make stops like Saranac, Blue Mountain lake Indian Lake, there's alot to see this time of year. If you go to my Profile and check my albums you'll see some pics of the areas my wife and I did one summer...Just need to watch out for the August Thunderstorms. They come out of no where in them mountains...

Read an areticle recently about a guy who rode 50 states in 50 days on his 50th birthday. Thoughtthat was cool as **** and decided it would be more reasonable to do 50 before 50.. almost done with everything East of the Miss.

Neat trip. I've always loved the Adirondacks. I try to get up there to ride as often as I can. Great scenery and great roads. Pack rain gear, though, as you WILL hit rain at some point. That's why the mountains are so GREEN.

Well, this trips coming to a close.. Hit the highway and let her breath a bit yesterday and made it to Corbin, Ky last night. Hot as hell, Sept might be a better choice if I were to do this one again, but it's been awesome and appreciate you guys going along for the ride and giving suggestions! Another 333mi, 5 or 10hrs, I'll be home (never know through Atlanta)
