There are a few of us meeting at the VA Hosp. in Brockton at 0900 if that works for you. Or we can pick you up along the way on Rt 24 if that's better.
Glad to have you aboard. |

I will be attending and will be rideing in from Western Mass along the Mass Pike. I will keep watch here and decide by tomorrow evening which meeting point I will hook up at and then contact that ride captain.
Russ You might want to contact 01deuce as he is coming from Milford. He posted previously that he was coming with others from his area. I don't believe 01deuce has posted which meeting point he will be aiming for.
Also, I'm quite sure there are others coming in from the Springfield area...
I'll be at the Exxon Station in Raynham located on Rte. 138 and I-495 if you guys come down I-495. I will then hook up with RichCop and the riders coming from the North somewhere on Rte. 24 South of Brockton.
Ace,
What time you going to be at the Exxon Station. I'll plan on meetting up with you there and then we can meet up with Richcop. Looking at my map it looks like that would be exit 8 off 495. I'll keep watch on this forum to see what other rally point come together.

Russ, I can only guess right now as I'm waiting to see when RichCop and John leave the Brockton VA which is only a few miles away from our location. They normally leave Brockton around 0800 which means that we should be gassed and saddled up at that time. Again, the time is subject to change depending on the other group.
Also, keep looking for 01deuce between now and then here as he more than likely be riding East on I-495.

Dynamal, Crazybob, JP - Got your messages and will be looking worward to seeing each of you.
Daddytail - any idea what time you guys'll be coming down 24? Should we plan to link up at Brockton, or see you at the Venus?
Rich - Made contact with MikeM, Sr. He's going to try to be there.

My mapping program shows highway construction on 495 from Franklin to the I-95 interchange and on Rt. 24 from Taunton to Rt. 79 in Assonet. Can someone let me know if these areas are causing serious delays and should be added in for timing purposes?

Don't know about Rte 24 but last weekend I did go through that piece of Rte 495. They did have all the signs in place but the work had not started...again that was last weekend. |
