Comments? Suggestions?

Hi Steph:
I grew up in Ticonderoga so I know the area well. Rt 9N up over tounge mountain is a gas, I drive it twice a year.
I went up to Paul SMith's this past weekend and saw 7 (yes, SEVEN) Mini's in the lakes placid area. They wern't all together so it wasn't a run, just a bunch of friendly motorists.
Don't know what my schedule looks like yet for 10/1 but I'll try to make it for the run.

If you can make the timing work, try going west on rt74 to 9 (schroon lake) and then north on 9 to the Tracy road (paved 2 years ago and really twisty!) that will dump you back onto 9N just north of Port Henry. 15 minutes to the ferry from there.

hope to see you there;
john
