I got no dog in this hunt, but somebody should throw out some dates or a couple guys agree on something.
Trying to herd cats can be a bitch. Fall is a better time for me.

FYI - slabbing PA north to south is like 4 hours on the same road. Few years ago some folks buzzed north and rode the BDR south. worked out well I think.

Did any of you knuckleheads ever go and ride this PA-X loop yet? I'm planning on taking my daughter on her first multi-day adventure ride and looking to do this loop as part of it. I'm looking for recommendations for camping spots along the loop please? I'm familiar with the spots near Bald Eagle (Seven Mountains Campground) and in Greenwood Furnace but haven't ever camped north of there.

I don't think any of us ever rode it. :(

I’d be down for an early fall run… maybe a long weekend after Labor Day? 15-18 Sept? Just a thought to start actual planning.

Is there a place on the route to park cars/trailers?

I'm doing a week long ride with my 17 year old daughter, her first multi-day ride, where we'll camping on and off. We'll be doing some of the Mid-Atlantic BDR until we intersect with the X loop and our intent is to do the full loop. We're leaving in a few weeks for this and will report back here by the end of the month how it went.

Bumping this thread. I know Twist and HuskyMatt have now done it.

Sep 15-18 could work for me. I've penciled it in the calendar for now to keep that weekend open.

Nice, hopefully everything works out.
