The Experience
We met Chris, the owner of Bucks County Joyrides, outside of Mama Hawk’s Kitchen and Coffee on a beautiful fall morning. After grabbing a latte to-go, Chris introduced us to his white Jeep, The Doan Gang! With the Jeep top down and the sun shining, we were ready for a morning filled with adventure.
Departing from Peddler’s Village, Chris started our ride down the backroads of Bucks County while sharing history of the area along the way. Chris pointed out prominent buildings and schooled us on the remarkable history of Bucks County. Although a longtime resident of Bucks County myself, I learned so much from Chris on our ride.
As we made our way further to the hidden corners of the county, we passed through two covered bridges and by the Stover-Myers Mill landmark. Deeper in the woods, our exciting jeep adventure continued down dirt roads and through two creeks. Riding through the water and over the bumpy creek beds fed the adrenaline junkie in me! Plus, the colorful fall foliage made the scenic ride even more spectacular.
Emerging from the woods, we drove through two more covered bridges and made a short stop at Van Sant Airport. At this historic airfield, we were able to stretch our legs and catch a glimpse at the vintage planes in the hangar, which was a unique experience. Chris finished up our ride passing through quaint rivertowns along River Road and scenic Cuttalossa Valley before returning to Peddler’s Village.
What truly makes a ride with Bucks County Joyrides so exceptional is Chris and his passion for sharing the joy of Jeep rides with others. Grab your friends or family and book ride!
