We invite you to experience one of the nation's most prominent collections of fire related art, artifacts, gear, and apparatus from the late 18th century to the present. Route will be GSP to NJ Turnpike to Holland Tunnel, into NYC, to location. We will leave the bikes parked directly in front, (in the driveway) of the museum for both our visit and during lunch. Museum staff has approved the parking arrangements and will keep an eye on the bikes. Both venues are just outside of the Holland Tunnel, so we won't be riding in Manhattan traffic for more than a few blocks. Bring EZ pass.
