It's a ride through Bucks County, to the 12 Covered Bridges. Meeting at 10:am at the Vistor Center 1112 River Rd. Washington Crossing, PA.
Rain date; the 12th
Warren - This area is my home turf and the northern part of the covered bridge tour is what I do on my normal motorcycling loop around home. I would suggest you, or whoever leads, pre-run the route if you haven't done it before. A couple of the bridges around Perkasie are not drivable and only partly visible from the road. (Not worth seeing, really.) Also there are many road closures now in Bucks County to rebuild road wash-outs. Hopefully by October the situation will improve. As far as the route, if you are going by the Internet write-ups only, it is not that easy to find some of them and the information given is out of date or just wrong. I still get lost sometimes! It is still a great ride and fun even if you miss a few bridges. I'm not on Facebook so I'm sorry if this stuff might have been mentioned before.
The Opel group I'm active with has a 3 day party at a couple's house in Plumsteadville, near Harrisburg, during the daytimes of which we go on wild rides through some covered bridges out there and end up at a glider/prop plane airport on top of a ridge. About 30 guys from the whole east coast and Canada converge there for the camp out/beer and food fest/covered bridge/windy-twisty cruise, weekend thing we do every year. Everyone brings the weirdest beer they can find.
Great Photo Op
Usually there are extra passengers or people willing to forego being filmed who will drive ahead and position themselves on the other side of various covered bridges and who then take awesome scenic pics of each person's car exiting the bridge. Great desktop backgrounds! Awesome keepsakes of the event!
Yes I'm doing a test run Sunday the 14th. anyone like to go for a ride meet at the Memorial Building Washington Crossing rt.32 river rd. 10:45. We are up to 15 to 20 cars.
Joe and I did the test run and it went well. We will be breaking the group into two. Joe will take one and I'll take the other, but we need two cars with raidos to run the back door.
Well Saturday looks like rain, so we will go on Sunday the 12th. See everyone at 11:00am. at River Rd. Rt.32 Memorial Building Washington Crossing, PA. Bring a walkie talkie if you have one.
