Hey Chuck,
Yes that was Saturday - more info about our trip and more photos here:
http://nehondaguys.info/forums/index.php?topic=1448.msg12183#newOn Saturday we had a great ride over the Catskills and managed to outrun the storms at every point. We went up Rt 55 from Newburgh, NY then took Rt 19 to Rt 47 (great road!) over the mountains and finally Rt23A back to the Hudson River.
Then we headed back to Vermont via Rt 23 through Mass up until Northampton and then took the highway. We outran the monster storm with literally minutes to spare - as we sped hastily up I91 to Brattleboro, VT the sky went black and the winds were suddenly ferocious - tonrnado watch was in effect and I could see why - I was getting blown around the highway and had to drop the speed back to the speed limit
Large spots of rain fell on the highway but it held off until we reached the cabin and we listened to the peals of thunder and dramatic lightening as the rain came down in torrents. A great end to the day!
Cheers
Andy
