All,
Note: This is the new official cruise thread for the cruise we've all been trying to plan. Sady doesn't post on these forums too often anymore, so with his permission I had the old thread locked and a new one created so I can easily update the first post.

Details:
I mapped out the route for a nice Berkshires cruise. This cruise will start in Pittsfield MA, and is basically a giant square. Basically we could start somewhere where it says "Meet", there is a nice parking lot there right by the lake we could meet at. Then from there we go north through Adams, MA, and hit Route 2 (very nice drive here) and go east. Then we hit the route 12 down to route 9.
If this is the route we choose, its 97.8 miles including to Mt. Greylock. Google Maps tells me 2 Hours, 57 minutes. IF we don't choose to do the Greylock run, we're looking at 2 hours, 25 minutes, and 84.6 miles. But I def think we should go to the mountain.. awesome views!
Below is the rough cruise route and some pics of Mt Greylock taken by a friend (my ex gf.. lol). If anyone has any suggestions, etc let me know! If you want to attend just post, and if you know you're bringing anyone else also let me know so I can (try) to make the Attendees list accurate!
OH, and the road to the top of the mountain has been all redone as of last year, so it's nice and smooth.. AND it has a couple hairpin turns.. just be careful! There are also a couple nice stops on the way where we can take nice pics or just admire the scenery, lol.
ROUTE:
Mt. Greylock
Sooo let's get a nice cruise going guys! Even if your car isn't up to par, or not ready.. if you can get A car just to come out and take a nice cruise.. do it!
