We are officially FULL.\n<p>I\u2019m 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.<\/p>\n<p>For those who weren\u2019t able to get in this year, I\u2019m sorry we couldn\u2019t accommodate everyone. If this trip goes as planned, I\u2019m hoping to put together another Leaf Peepers-style motorcycle trip next year and perhaps make it a regular fall tradition.<\/p>\n<p>Thanks again to everyone who signed up.
