I’m really looking forward to spending a few days riding through the beautiful Pennsylvania countryside with everyone. It should be a great trip, with plenty of scenic roads, good riding, good food, and, of course, hopefully some great fall foliage along the way.

For those who weren’t able to get in this year, I’m sorry we couldn’t accommodate everyone. If this trip goes as planned, I’m hoping to put together another Leaf Peepers-style motorcycle trip next year and perhaps make it a regular fall tradition.

Thanks again to everyone who signed up. Now let’s hope Mother Nature cooperates and gives us some great colors and great riding weather! 🍁🏍️

See you on the road!

Dates: September 25–27, 2026 (3 days / 2 nights)

Our base camp for the trip will be Williamsport, Pennsylvania, with accommodations at the historic Genetti Hotel.

A group rate of $120 per night plus taxes has been negotiated. The rate includes a hot breakfast buffet, Wi-Fi, free parking, 48-hour cancellation policy with no penalty.

This flexible cancellation policy provides riders with peace of mind should the weather not cooperate. The hotel also features an outdoor pool and fitness center, and its downtown location places numerous restaurants and attractions within walking distance. Local favorites include Bullfrog Brewery and The Brickyard Restaurant & Ale House.

Day One will feature an approximately 235-mile ride to Williamsport with several comfort stops along the way. Lunch is tentatively planned at the Port Clinton Hotel. Depending on the group’s interest and timing, possible stops may include Cabela’s and Schaeffer’s Harley-Davidson.

Highlights of the day’s ride will include scenic and twisty Gold Mine Road and Pennsylvania Route 125.

Day Two promises a full day of adventure, covering approximately 275 miles through some of Pennsylvania’s most beautiful countryside.

Planned highlights include:

• Hyner View State Park, where we’ll enjoy spectacular views and watch hang gliders launch from the mountain overlook
• Elk Country Visitor Center
• Lunch at the Benezette Hotel
• George B. Stevenson Dam
• Wharton Tavern for ice cream or a snack
• Cherry Springs State Park

Cherry Springs State Park is recognized as one of the premier stargazing destinations in the eastern United States and offers some of the darkest night skies on the East Coast.

Riders will also experience stretches of Pennsylvania Route 44, widely regarded as one of the best motorcycle roads in Pennsylvania.

Plans for Day Three are still being finalized, and additional details will be shared as they become available.
