TEWKS Posted April 14, 2019 Share Posted April 14, 2019 If you're looking for ideas on what to do and where to ride at this year's UN, take a look below. Let's meet at 8:00 AM with a Roll out at 8:30 AM from the main parking area at Dunham's. Sunday 6/23/19 Arrival day at the UN with an afternoon run around the Great Sacandaga! Granted my ride in is only 5 hours. Monday 6/24/19 Shorter route up to Lake Placid & Whiteface Mt. (BBQ Lunch) Tuesday 6/25/19 GS style ride over to Heid's BMW. Hopefully a guided tour by Paul Heid himself. ( his availability is not guaranteed ) We will be back in time for the Dinner Cruise on Lake George and maybe even a ride to Shelving Rock Falls. Wednesday 6/26/19 This is the long route up to Whiteface Mt. Via Vermont. (approximately 350 miles round trip) with a swim at the Flume Falls in Wilmington NY. (A Burger Lunch at the Lake Placid Pub & Brewery) Thursday 6/27/19 Ride to Tahawus to see an old iron blast furnace. Or a Bike and Hike Up Hurricane Mountain. TBD on the 26th at or about adult beverage time. Friday 6/28/19 Depart for home 1 1 Link to comment
Woodie Posted April 15, 2019 Share Posted April 15, 2019 These look like great ideas... but I'm unable to convert any of these to KML (for use w/ Waze). Getting Data missing kind of errors... any ideas? Link to comment
TEWKS Posted April 15, 2019 Author Share Posted April 15, 2019 Wish I could help Woodie, but the tech stuff kicks my butt, most times. Heck, I had to use the old Mapsource program because Basecamp wasn't cooperating with me. Good luck, hope somebody can help. Link to comment
Endobob Posted May 22, 2019 Share Posted May 22, 2019 I was able to download the files one at a time and they each automatically opened in Basecamp. 1 Link to comment

TEWKS Posted May 26, 2019 Author Share Posted May 26, 2019 Dave, hope you squared away vehicle parking after the UN. I wish I could help you out there but three months would wear me down keeping watch on your rig. Let's see, quads, scooters, bicycles, curious dogs, the occasional rock fight & bird turds. You know, all the typical vehicle hazards. Link to comment
drswift Posted May 29, 2019 Share Posted May 29, 2019 Got it covered. Found a place in NH. 1 Link to comment
Patallaire Posted May 30, 2019 Share Posted May 30, 2019 Don't forget to visit Ben And Jerrys and the Trapp Family Lodge in Vermont. 1 Link to comment
Oldironken Posted May 31, 2019 Share Posted May 31, 2019 I'm bringing my passport just in case i wander close to the border... Link to comment
TEWKS Posted May 31, 2019 Author Share Posted May 31, 2019 Ken, unless you plan on blasting up to Montreal, I think it's pretty unremarkable just across the border. Meaning it's just more of the same. But, fun to say you did it. I rode up to Montreal in my early twenties and that's pretty much all I can say about that. Link to comment
Marty Hill Posted May 31, 2019 Share Posted May 31, 2019 Having crossed that border several times on my bike I can say there is nothing to see or do other to say you did it. Have fun! Marty Link to comment
