Deb – not sure if you will be checking this in the morning, but from where you are, you can probably just shoot over to 24/78 east to the Pkwy then down to the NJ Tpke and follow the PA Tpke directions.
But, here is an alternative route:
I will probably shoot out through Flemington, and then down 31 to 95 South (the other 95). There are a couple of DDs and WAWAs along this route for coffee.
Once I am on Rt 95, I will get on Rt. 1 South in PA and then get on the PA Tpke from there (you cannot get on the PA Tpke off that route 95)
Hope this helps
Cross your fingers!! Look at this report, its a lot different than earlier today!

Looks like I will see you all tomorrow!!!
Goodnight!!!
me and Ant have both been in contact with Glenn’s wife tonight. They are practicing at the track right now. Its cool and clear there right now. Their local reports say there is a chance of the rain staying east of them and as of now are not calling the race at this time. Its a wait and see until tomorrow. This means a bunch of us will be packing up and heading out early tomorrow morning.
And Dave – a little rain does not bother me. I ride flats.
Deb, I have not mapped out a course yet. The PA Tpke route is probably the easiest to follow, but I might head through Flemington and drop down 31 to 95south into PA and go from there. I’ll try and map soon.
Glenn – as soon as you make a decision one way or the other, maybe you can change your message on your cell phone. It will be less work for you.
Cool? 8)
Now I know why Dave started a State Team. $15 entry fee for a shot at winning $67.50.
$52.50 buys alot of PBR. 😛

Thanks!
when I got my Goose – I basically thought I was a badass with it, had the best bike on the block, etc. Then I went to my first race at the Jersey City Armory and realized I wasn’t even close!
Still – that bike was my 8th grade grad present. I talked my dad into it. In my family, you were supposed to get a 10speed from Bradlees for graduation. This bike cost more than double, but like I said, I talked my dad into it. How? I reminded him of all the put-together bikes I had and how I was constantly breaking stuff, so this would be an upgrade and much, much more reliable. He bought it (the bike and the b.s.! lol). I don’t think he ever told my mom how much that first one cost (about $200+). She would have had a cow. Eventually she fell in love with the racing, so it didn’t matter.
If my dad only knew where this would lead, I’m not sure he would have done it. I spent just about every penny I had for the next 4yrs on BMX bikes.
Mongoose Tri-moly. With a coaster brake. Had the shop upgrade to Mongoose Gold Stem, Race Inc. alloy bars and KKT pedals. But yet I kept the coaster brake.
Still – it was my first real ride. That summer I got a freewheel conversion put in. This was the bike I first raced with, too.
