Beware, the detour goes thru Coraopolis and Sewickley, Sewickley bridge will most likely back up

>> You can also take the parkway West heading to the airport.  Bear right towards the old airport entrance.  Then right onto University  Blvd.  Left onto Swiekley bridge and right onto rt 65.  That will take you back to I79.  It's the long way around but it will keep you out of all the traffic.

About half the customers inside weren't wearing a mask.  Anyway, remember to bring a mask, just in case.  But if you happen to forget a mask the sign on the Sheetz door also states that they will provide one.

The Driver’s Meeting is at   10:15. Their website is steelcitysportsbarandgrille.com. We will be sitting inside to eat although there is a smaller covered outside seating area in case anyone prefers fresh air to air conditioning.

There are several shady areas that we will be driving through so if it does end up being hot then we will have occasional relief from the hot sun.

This will help to keep everyone together in the groups. I’ve had a blast driving around these country roads finding nice twisty roads. So, if you like to drive a little briskly then I think you will really enjoy this run. And if you prefer a leisurely pace then you can put the top down and enjoy the scenery as
