Subject:JBB Carabus Route Change
From:Greg Potts
Date:Tue, 5 Oct 2004 16:16:21 -0400

Hi Volks,

A suggestion has been made and corrections approved to the flight plan
for the Carabus heading to John Brown's Buses on Friday October 15th.

We're still leaving Lake Erie State Park in the Brocton NY area at 9AM
sharp, and taking Rt.5 west to I-79. The change is that we're going to
bypass the Penna Turnpike and continue south past Pittsburgh on I-79 to
I-68. I-68 will take us to I-70 and finish with a very scenic back-road
route into Harper's Ferry from I-81.

The route has been switched to I-68 for a number of reasons: the
pavement is better, the traffic less frantic, there aren't any tolls
and the scenery is Excellent. It adds about 35 miles to the trip but
it's still cheaper than paying the tolls and the construction on the
Penna would probably have eaten up the time savings.

Email me if you're interested in hooking up with the group.

event.
