I spent most of my weekend working on data schema for a small project that deals with GPS - it has to manifest itself somehow, right?

LOL! Yeah, I like to ride a little. Hopefully Eric can go so I can meet up with him on the way. I didn't check the distance yet, but it looks like it's about an hour past his house.
Is the meeting spot 374 N. Maple Basking ridge? If so, it's only 134 miles...piece of cake

I would love to come to this, but I have a BBQ in the afternoon to go to and a birthday party after that.

How long do you think the loop will take? I might be able to join for part of it and then split off.

enjoy, I'd be in if I wasn't working the night before...

If we start at 9:30, it should take about 2 hours, maybe? I'll need to split off around 11:30 - need to "swing by" CT on the way back to NYC.

I'm back home and I'm in!

The meeting spot.. it'll be much better to meet across the street (Bigger lot with easier access: https://maps.google.com/maps?q=40.7...=us&ei=XsN_UeHVO_Gn4AOdnYCwDA&ved=0CDIQ8gEwAA

motojoe, get to my place by 8:30. It takes 30 minutes to get to there via boring highway, but if we have an hour, we can take the fun way up

True that - that place is right off the road and not on the opposite side. I changed the meeting place in the first post
