We will be meeting at 10:45 AM the BP gas station at 1001 Montour Church Road, Oakdale, PA 15071. Drivers' meeting and first cars off at 11 AM. In celebration of the 48th anniversary of the Western Pennsylvania Triumph Association, I'm hoping for as many TR3's as we can muster for a fun backroads ride from Robinson through Canonsburg, Eighty Four, and Scenery Hill. If you have one in working order, consider bringing it out. Consider this also a "Back to our Roots" tour! Actual route directions will follow as close as possible to a route planned by my dad for the 14th Anniversary Run in 1991, with a few updated twists and turns that I personally think are a blast! While the original route went to the Friendship Inn, this iteration will be ending at Rye's Bar and Restaurant located at 248 Old National Pike E, Brownsville, PA 15417.
