Default PA here I come!

After 13 years in Vegas I'm moving! I'll be setting up in Wyalusing, PA, right on Hwy 6. Spent about 2 weeks in PA this summer and fell in love. Got a good buddy in Wyalusing that I'm setting up some business with. Rode my Road King there right before Labor Day and parked it, now I gotta get the rest of my crap in a trailer (along with the Sporty) and I'm heading out next week.

I look forward to the rides, changes of seasons, and before you start, yes, I know that it will snow there. So I'm giving up 115 degree days for a few months of no-riding in the winter. I'll make it!

Hey JM ---- Think we might have "talked" awhile back. I live about 60 - 65 miles west, on 6, in Wellsboro. You'll love it up here --- from April until about November! Actually, I've ridden in December before. We haven't been getting much winter, for quite awhile, until after the 1st of the year, but Jan, Feb, & March can kinda suck. Go west, young man! I think the best riding in the state is west of 15 & north of interstate 80, over in that northwest 1/4 of PA. (6 crosses 15 north/south over in Mansfield, about 50 miles from Wyalusing.) Some nice ridin' in upstate NY too. You're not very far from NY. (Don't forget your helmet when you go up there!) See ya on down the road somewhere.

Default Welcome to Pa

Funny, Lived in Pa for most of my life, never heard of Wyalusing before. Looked it up on google maps. That is a beatuiful area for riding. Sure will be different than the deserts in Calif.

Welcome from York

Hey JM ---- Don't be shocked ---- it's been about 10 degrees colder than normal, lately. We still have a few good rides left, though!
