Summer cruises anyone?

[jfeierman]

I am considering organizing some informal cruises this Summer if anyone else is interested. I've been exploring many of the roads around us in Southern Chester County, Upper Perkiomen Valley, and out towards Reading, and there are plenty of fun ones (and that's before we talk about things like River Rd. in Bucks County). If folks are game, let me know!

Sounds like a great idea. We can post up on FB with a link to this thread to help with awareness of anything set up. Kevin had a good idea and route set up to the Lighthouse in NJ.

Nice! I'll make up a couple routes and we can go from there.

Sounds good to me. We used to do a summer Poker Run, which is sort of a cruise.

Any updates on this?

Hi! I was on vacation and super busy with softball for kiddo the younger, so I'm just getting back to this. :smile:

I had started assembling a couple of routes, mainly around an hour or so total travel time. Anyone who clicks on this link (https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1__9lWthEArLyGGrFji5LLfoEi4MJNlw29SaXe7vthLQ/edit?usp=sharing) should be able to access the sheet. If folks want to contribute more routes, send me your Google account. Maybe we can plan something for the last weekend in July (next weekend, we have the Dover event).

How about a cruise through some of the covered bridges in either Chester or Bucks Counties?

[jfeierman]

I like that idea! I added some more cruises to the list for that: 2 each for Bucks and Chester Counties (Chester is a pretty long list at ~85 miles and 2.5 hours for both parts) and one for Berks. I might try to do one this weekend since the weather looks nice. I'd probably vote for either Chester County Covered Bridges - Part 2 (https://www.google.com/maps/dir/Highland+Orchards,+Inc.,+Marshallton+Thorndale+Roa d,+West+Chester,+PA/Speakman+Number+1+Covered+Bridge/Mercer's+Mill+Covered+Bridge/39.795351,-76.0695667/Pine+Grove+Covered+Bridge,+Pine+Grove+Covered+Brid ge,+Nottingham,+PA/39.7673936,-75.9101999/Linton-Stevens+Covered+Bridge/Glen+Hope+Covered+Bridge,+Hickory+Hill+Road,+Oxfor d,+PA/39.7198887,-75.9031313/Rudolph+and+Arthur+Covered+Brg,+Pennsylvania/@39.8180089,-76.0688117,52720m/data=!3m1!1e3!4m49!4m48!1m5!1m1!1s0x89c6f6252fd45d e9:0xa43bd6f1c33bfe74!2m2!1d-75.6976877!2d39.9610812!1m5!1m1!1s0x89c659fd9aeebd 3d:0x763c65126f3e03b1!2m2!1d-75.8225696!2d39.9293819!1m5!1m1!1s0x89c64f4557ffa6 7f:0xdabc0cc0cb17e262!2m2!1d-75.9814121!2d39.9314284!1m0!1m5!1m1!1s0x89c64ad6aa 2cf369:0xfbe0cadc2c567f80!2m2!1d-76.0446591!2d39.7935792!1m0!1m5!1m1!1s0x89c7b2bca4 50943d:0x782e0427aa6a946a!2m2!1d-75.9124313!2d39.7565384!1m5!1m1!1s0x89c7b27c44229e d7:0xad1b54ab2a485ed8!2m2!1d-75.9076489!2d39.7269465!1m0!1m5!1m1!1s0x89c7ad6a2a 9b6597:0x60fd85b5bf4ffa22!2m2!1d-75.8822568!2d39.7458741!2m1!1b1!3e0?entry=ttu) or Berks County Covered Bridges (https://www.google.com/maps/dir/Target,+2769+Paper+Mill+Rd,+Wyomissing,+PA+19610/40.3639368,-75.9746301/40.4979509,-75.8495052/Dreibelbis+Station+Covered+Bridge,+Covered+Bridge+ Road,+Lenhartsville,+PA/Kutz's+Mill+Bridge,+Kutz+Mill+Road,+Kutztown,+PA/Pleasantville+Covered+Bridge,+Covered+Bridge+Road, +Oley,+PA/Greisemer%E2%80%99s+Covered+Bridge,+Spangsville+Ro ad,+Oley,+PA/The+Other+Farm,+128+E+Philadelphia+Ave,+Boyertown, +PA+19512/@40.5098167,-75.9558219,45335m/data=!3m1!1e3!4m42!4m41!1m5!1m1!1s0x89c676a3712af6 a3:0xfb4358243d3c4e3f!2m2!1d-75.9833756!2d40.3594912!1m0!1m0!1m5!1m1!1s0x89c5d0 14359d36bb:0xabeee2b243d2444d!2m2!1d-75.8797262!2d40.5547341!1m5!1m1!1s0x89c5d227a29c6d c9:0xb804ee35bc9e997b!2m2!1d-75.8054325!2d40.5336934!1m5!1m1!1s0x89c67f0b1895a9 2d:0xba056e19517e1cdc!2m2!1d-75.7386976!2d40.3791886!1m5!1m1!1s0x89c67f177c7441 23:0xaef1be50c5aab0ea!2m2!1d-75.7379726!2d40.3630354!1m5!1m1!1s0x89c68171b47f70 87:0x83d4f270347d5f83!2m2!1d-75.6355543!2d40.3319148!2m1!1b1!3e0?entry=ttu).

We do a covered bridge cruise with Central PA Mustang Club in October.

Maybe we do something down near the Jersey shore?
