Contemplating a trip to Buffalo next weekend with my son...weather permitting. Tentative plan is to get a pound or two of Buffalo's finest wings and take a ride through Letchworth State Park and a loop around Conesus Lake. Any suggestions about nice roads in this area and/or good places to see the Fall colours? Company is always welcome!

Cheers!

Franklin Ma is a bit far, for sure! Maybe next year I can plan something a bit closer to your neck of the woods. Always wanted to visit Cape Cod.

Cheers!

Stop in Amherst at Duff's. let me know when your going i might meet you for a bite (ca't ride next weekend). Than your going to want to take Sheridan drive until it turns into rt 5, rt 5 out into Batavia,, go through Batavia to 63, than take 63 to 36 to the park or 36 to 39 and back track a little on go in the other end of the park.

Hey EvilD! Many thanks for the routing instructions. On my first trip through Buffalo I tried wings at Anchor Bar and then at the Duff's located at 3651 Sheridan Drive. My son and I agreed that Duff's had WAY better wings on that occasion.

My second time for wings in Buffalo was a disappointment...we were on our way back to Canada from a trip to Tennessee and we had enough time to get a quick bite so wings topped my list. My son wanted to try Duff's Famous Wings (Dick Road in Depew) so we headed there and were facing a 2-3 hours of waiting just to get a seat! GPS died so we got back on the superslab without any wings at all.

Definately going back to the Duff's on Sheridan! PM me your telephone number and I'll call you when I'm in your neck of the woods.

Cheers!

Cheers!

Hi Blaine,
From where I live rt 20a isn't a bad ride. It's a little out of the way from duffs, but there's a lot of hills and windy roads. It's not a high speed road, but a nice ride IMO. You also get up close to some of those huge windmills.

20a sounds like a good route! When I'm traveling 2-up I usually keep my speed 'close' to posted limits. I'm open to ideas for good routes. If I decide to make it an over-niter I'd appreciate suggestions on a decent/affordable hotel in the area.

Cheers!

Sounds good. I'm off today and tomorrow. Weather and time permitting maybe we can meet for a spin. I've been up the 404 a few times to Aurora looking for ex-police interceptors. Once you get north the the cookie cutters it's pretty country.

20-A. I live only a few miles south of East Aurora... Weather permitting, I'll see you there. Left you a pm with contact info, or drop me a line here...

The GTA guys can enjoy DUff's without crossing the border. One of my favorite wing joints and they just opened one up in Richmond Hill (just a few minutes from my house). Would love to meet up with other maxheads next spring.
