We're in for Sunday. You might want to re-look at that left turn in New Haven from Amity Rd. to Whalley Ave. That 300 degree turn has a stoplight that will only let three or four cars go at one time. If you turn left at Lucy St. (about 1/4 mile back) and right at Litchfield Tpk. (RT. 69-Whalley Ave), you have a cleaner shot at the left on Pod Lilly to Rt. 15. Just a thought, I lived down there for years.

If a couple of you want to run the route backwards tomorrow starting around noon, let me know. I feel like a drive and it will be 70 degrees.

I would love to join you, especially as the route goes right past my house in Woodbridge. I will try and make it, and will confirm beforehand
BTW you might want to think about avoiding the great hill road section between rt 34 and Rt 67 in Seymour Last time I was there it had many deep potholes that were absolutely impossible to avoid and the road is generally in very bad condition. UNless its been repaired within the last three months I certainly would not take my cobra on it.
You could take governors hill road and then rt42 through beacons falls which is a nice drive and then rt 63 south. Thats a regular circuit of mine.

All roads checked out good today. We ran the whole loop in the opposite direction. But it is just the right route for a nice group drive.

I don't get it. I can't get 2 guys to go for a 40 mile ride on a Saturday or Sunday, you can get 5 cars to show up for a 200 mile ride on a Thursday. Is there a message here?

We passed a white Cobra with a big block going the other way in New Milford. Anyone?
