DB: At this point, I don't think it's going to be my restaurant. I finally got financial statements from the guy, and it doesn't look as if I could earn as much from the place as I need. Ah well...
Zen: I really like that cliff shot. Did you toss all the Yahoos off the edge before you took it?"How about if we all just try to follow these very simple rules of the road?

Would like to ride somewhere I haven't, with as little crowd as possible, within 1.5 hour drive. Is that possible? Originally Posted by Kalidurga

Cushwa Basin parking's likely to be crowded. There's a smaller lot a bit downstream by the lockhouse, but I've never checked it out so I don't know how crowded it gets. That is a nice ride, though, so I could be willing to brave the crowds at the beginning/end. The other option would be to drive a bit further and meet at Fort Frederick.
Janice, how long does it take you to drive to my house (just to estimate your total driving time)?"How about if we all just try to follow these very simple rules of the road?

Then Ft Fred would be at the max end of your time limit. Shall we go for Cushwa Basin in Williamsport, then? I still haven't checked out the new museum that opened there this summer.
Zen, when you rode to Ft Fred, did you ride around the park at all? Or up along next to Big Pool?Last edited by Kalidurga; 08-28-2008 at 06:00 PM.

Well, if y'all feel like it, we'll have to ride around a bit. Ft Fred's a nice little park. And you can check out the camping facilities
