Anyone interested in riding out as a group ....We will be leaving the petro truck stop at 8:30am on Saturday ,We will take rt 295 south to rt322 (if anyone intends to be at the TA truck stop off exit 18 we will cruise through there around 9:20 -9:30) and then an awesome twisty road (rt82) to Coatsville, Pa. We should arrive at the hotel around 11:30 to hook up with everyone and to check in. We can do lunch and a little riding around, maybe visit a covered bridge or two. There is a horse drawn buggy ride that is alot of fun. We will be meeting Wayne at the hotel in the evening and he will take us up to the Shady Maple for dinner, We will be leaving the hotel at 5:00pm SHARP for dinner ,dinner will be $20.00 per head and must be collected before we go into the restaurant.
