I've convinced Keith that he wants to do Giant's next weekend, so we're planning to be there . Maybe the new wheels will arrive next week...

ah ... just found these (Are they acurate?):
GIANTS DESPAIR—Giants is located m Laurel Run, Pa. which is only a few hundred yards to the east off Interstate 81 at the south end of Wilkes Barre. Get off Interstate B1 at exit 168 (Highland Drive). Proceed on Highland Drive to Route 309 ( at the first traffic light). Turn left (south) onto Route 309 and proceed for a few hundred yards and make a right onto the East Northampton Street off ramp (near the "Sheets" gas station). Proceed on East Northampton Street under Interstate 81 into Laurel Run. Continue straight and you will run directly into the hillclimb. The start line is actually on East Northampton street at the east end of Laurel Run.

From Reading-
Get on I-81 from your choice of methods (I take 61 to 895 to 443 to 309). Go North for a while. Then go North some more. Then pass I-80. Then go North some more.
For the hill, get off at the Business 309 N exit (possibly marked Ashley or Laurel Run or something like that)- it's a left exit if I'm not mistaken. I think it's exit 165B. Go past the hotels and the McDonalds. Look for Northampton St. Take the "exit ramp" to it and turn right. This road becomes the hillclimb.
For tech, stay on I-81 past the exit for the hill, and take the next exit. It's about 3 miles past, so should be 168 or so. go down the ramp, and at the "bottom", WalMart will be on your left. Go there. Get teched. Be merry.
Now, if someone has slightly less vague directions, feel free to add... I don't watch where I'm driving, I just use the force...

HI all,
FYI the tech is in Sam's Club parking lot. It was Sam's and Wal-Mart but Wal-Mart has moved up on Highland Dr. Sam's Club is the same spot for Tech like always. Look for Sam's Club on the right at the light at Sheet's Gas station.

See ya there!
I'll be at Giants this weekend, but I'll be wrenching and observing my first hill. I'll be one of the guys helping out with a bright yellow (hey, I like yellow!) Turner that my friend races vintage in.
See ya on the hill!

See ya on the hill!

Or, from the directions I have and from the NE extension (476):
NE Ext of the PA TPK up to the Wilkes Barre/rte 115 exit and take 115 down into Wilkes Barre...get onto 309 Bus. south and look for Northhampton Ave/St...the course is to your left...you can also come north on 309 into W/B...look for Northhampton Ave/St? going toward Laurel Run...that is the hillclimb course if you follow it off 309...the Sams Club is on 309 just above the hillclimb turn-off.
