Bridge work is complete, I believe and there is no more rotary on the mainland side of the Sagamore bridge. There is one on the Cape side of the Bourne Bridge. Also, I have lived here for many, many years and I have yet to see any civilian using the breakdown lane on Rt. 6 for anything other than a breakdown. I'm sure it's happened, but I don't think it's a common practice.

 

SHHHHHH, So are the back roads

Thanks for the update on the bridge.
We've gone down to the Cape in Oct every year for after the summer vacation.
A friend lends his house and his family goes to Vermont to stay in ours. It works out great.
Also the breakdown driving is between Boston & the Bridge on Rt 3 to clarify not on 6. Sorry for any confusion. I see it every time I drive down there unless we go a different way (not on 3).

 

I am thinking I will take back roads to the bridge so we can experience it and then take the tunnel on the way back to avoid traffic on a labor day Monday. There are always those little surprises on trips that catch us off guard. Any of you guys wants to meet up for a drink there on me for the help!

 

Won't catch me down there on that weekend.......Just enjoy and take in the Cape Cod experience........and don't swim near seals!!!!

 

major I will be in boston as well thursday and friday night if your around that area. cape code is saturday sunday night.

 

I'll keep it in mind and thank you! If your only going down there for a few days enjoy the place your staying at for sure. Take in the town of Chatham and you will have fun. I thought you were going down for the LD week so forget about P-town.....just enjoy close to where your staying. Just another of my 2 cents....LOL!!!

 

Oh and I told my girlfriend if she complains more than 3 times she is swimming with the seals and she said "they look so cute I would swim with them" I might need you to come out and keep my sanity

 

LOL!!! Just don't let me see you two on the Monday morning news! JK!

I use to live in West Yarmouth grew up between Parkers River and Bass river......i'm sure you'll keep your sanity! That place your staying at is really nice compared to the norm so take advantage of it!!!!

 

I'll be driving to VT in early September for a little R&R at the parents house. I've done the drive a few times before, going to see if I can beat my time of 40 hours. Mapquest says its 38 hours drive time.

 

Now thats a haul........I have done Daytona Fl from Mass a few times non stop.......long..........lots to see and kinda fun.....

But that was on my Harley.......Buddy has a trailer now so its going to make things easier for us next year!

I really luv VT/NH...........I did Freinkenstein Notch last year in NH......almost killed me between he hike and the altitude....but it was all good.......

 

Thank for all the info cape and major really appreciate all that. hey 6speedtaco I am going to vt after the slopes open in fall, do you ski or board? if you skiblade just keep it to yourself

 

Hahahaha @ skiblades! I do ski, infact I am the master ski tech at a ski shop in Montana. Okemo, Stratton, and Killington are where I grew up skiing.

 

Anyone tried out Allwheels Offroad Park in Lewiston, ME?

Major91- Thinking you mean Frankenstein Cliff in Crawford Notch off US-302.

 

Anybody going to this?

 

capecodder and major what are these back roads trying to look at this on a map. Unless its the 6a that you mentioned before. Hey 6speed east coast riders make the best riders! How was the snow this winter in Montana?

 

My thoughts would be if your staying in Chatham just Saturday and Sunday I would get on the road no later than 5-6 AM. This will give you plenty of time to take the normal rte 28 drive instead of 6A. Then you can see like i said before things on 28 that may catch your eye for the weekend such as bars/eateries and so on.......Or do the same and get on 6A either way...........get on the road as early as possible.....and if your checkin is later in the day i'm sure you can find things to do down there before checkin. There are roads you can take from like South Yarmouth to the Bass River Bridge but if your out early.....no rush needed...take your time....enjoy the ride/scenery!

 

Another Rhodie here

 

Taking the bike down the back roads to Point Judith this weekend.....really enjoy the small little summer shacks in RI.......

Welcome!

 

The snow was great. An unusually wet spring = lots of late season backcountry skiing.
