Ken,

Welcome to Pa - Land of the Highway Construction Barrels.  Pen DOT seems 
to spend all money on Orange Barrels and Flashing Sign, but traffic and 
the roads only get worse.  
The big trucks are part of it, since they can't seem to design a highway 
to hold up to their pounding and an abnormal amount of truck traffic 
flows through this state.

Lots of backroads around here though - just need to be careful this time 
of year as there is lots of loose gravel where you least expect it.

I need to get down to Hermey's and check things out.  Not too sure I 
want to take my bike back to Lancaster Honda where I purchased it.  Not 
pleased with the set up that was done on it, nor the three trips back to 
get the correct pannier set and luggage rack.
