NOTE: We will be leaving precisely @ 9:30. Gas, restrooms and food are available at the WEIS and at the nearby Wawa. Plan accordingly. We want to get to Buddy's at a less busy time for brunch.
Because we use the facilities at Hawk Mountain for this drive, Polar Bear and occasionally others, I would appreciate each driver donating $5 to help them out with the wonderful work they do. I will collect during the driver's meeting. Thanks in advance!
THIS IS A RAIN OR SHINE EVENT.
Length: 170 miles of some very entertaining roads, one of which we will run in both directions. You may want to bring a snack and beverage - and you must have a full tank of gas.

Needless to say, this is an all-day drive. Plan accordingly!

Dave: Because of the weather forecast for Saturday I am backing out of the Westward Ho ride. I was looking forward to the scheduled stops.
Thanks!
Unfortunately, I am going to cancel as well, due to weather. The possibility of afternoon thunderstorms put me over the edge. I have to drive a long way to get to the starting point, that it is hard to commit to such a long drive with iffy weather. I hope it works out well for what’s left of you.
