Eh. Some good riding if you detour, depends on how much longer you really want to take. Once you get past DE into MD, especially through Baltimore, there are some nice lesser known local two lanes into DC. Even with the horrible traffic around the cities, youll still spend a bit more time going that route though. How much extra time are you all willing to put on the bikes?

Be careful with detours. We got some info that there are some common local routes washed out.

should be dried out. Sunday cleared a lot up, Monday was nice as well. I dont mind checking a few routes out for anyone coming into town, just shoot me a dm and let me know what you wanted to take. I commute in and out of the area often.

any suggestions? I cant find my good set anywhere. My old set is beyond worthless. Harley has a good set but obviously branded. Any other last minute suggestions?

Tomorrow’s Thursday See if Dennis Kirk, Revzilla, ect. offer next day delivery. But with the upcharge, I’d buy the HD stuff.

Maybe Dicks, Cabellas, Gander.
