Default Cool spot to ride to

I've ridden through this place before back in college, which was about 5 years ago and wasn't to far from where I went. It's more of a sightseeing trip than a motorcycle trip but everything is more fun on bikes. But if you guys are looking for a destination for a day trip it's worth a ride.

Another forum I'm on had a thread about that place. I had wanted to setup a grouper out there but never did. You're saying it would be worth the 2hour+ trek from NJ over there on some bikes? Anyone want to go?

i dont think you can ride there persay. but with the signs that read According to Wikipedia, the only indications of the fire are low round metal steam vents in the south of the borough, and several signs warning of underground fire, unstable ground, and carbon monoxide. i would pass on riding through. i do see people there, but their probably saying what the hell its only carbon monoxide were inhailing lol

When I went I wasn't really paying attention until I noticed the smoke. The guys I went with were from the area so it's wasn't new to them and they didn't feel the need to tell me what we were riding past. But during one of our breaks I asked them and they explained the whole story. They said there was some type of service road you can take into the main part of it.
