PA 6th Mid-PA Mini-Dragon Meet!

6th time hosting this meet up same as last time.

Saturday May 21th 2022 (rain date would be the 28th)


7:45am meet up at Arbys

9am at Buddys

Arby's, (7720 Main St, Fogelsville, PA 18051)
Buddy's Log Cabin Family Restaurant, (97 Tremont Rd, Pine Grove, PA 17963)


Same as last time
Meet up will be at Buddy's Log Cabin Family Restaurant, (97 Tremont Rd, Pine Grove, PA 17963) around 9am for brunch.
There is a gas station a few miles north of Buddy's on 125


Then drive the mini-dragon on this path(or one close to it)

(replace xxx with www)
https://xxx.google.com/maps/dir/Budd...2541!3e0?hl=en


about route 125(drive at your own limits)
Rt 125 is equal parts scenic and challenging. Coming down the mountain on the Shamokin side there are some serious downhill hairpins that you need to pay attention to, so stay within your limits and pay attention to the road! On a nice day there may be some amount of sport bike traffic, so watch out for our two wheeled friends and be aware that they will be looking to pass (no matter how quick you may be going :-)). Bottom line, pay attention to the road and your surroundings and everyone will have a great day!

Well, I work that day till 3.

If you guys are around the area (sunbury, shamokin) when i get off i'll take the car out and come meet ya's. She's got a few new dings that i need to fix and am planning on getting a fresh paint job done (my kids are not kind around vehicles) But she's still an 04 BB Boosted GT. She's just a work in progress still.

Unfortunately my F'N power steering rack decided it was ready to die a few weeks ago and i have not had time to fix it yet. This simply means i'll be driving with manual steering, meh. So i wont be participating in the cruise, i would still drive out to meet yall if you're in the area.

Hmmm did a quick look into drive time and hotels. I'm at maybe 50/50 of going, should be decided by middle of next week. Hopefully the weather stays decent, i don't think i even put 500 miles on my 8 last year.
