    You don't find traffic on Rte 32, though. It's a GS/Vstrom road.

    BTW, it's not strep.

    The top of the mountain in the clouds, it would get worse by the time we decided to ride up and much better by the time we came back down...

    Looking down into the valley to the north, the low clouds obscuring some of the other peaks...

    Last one from the summit, parked under the overhang trying to keep cameras and gear dry, didn't help much...

    Kris and I had a great time and enjoyed seeing everyone from the kids table at lunch.

    Greylock was an adventure but we were in the sun once we got down the other side. Spent the night in Great Barrington, then some great roads coming home today. Starting to get cold though, turned the Fabulous Mrs. Me into a popsickle by the time we got home.

    When is the next great NE region forum riders ride?
