Yo Rog.
Not that any of this matters but.... I think you're only recalling half of what I told you.
Yes, Buttah was smoking and coughing most of the ride... BUT even despite the coughing I also said that he easily kept up with what I consider I decently paced ride.
But really though, who gives a shit? Can we go back to actually talking about riding?!
Wait, so Rog is back as a guns n roses song about heroin? I never was a fan of Icelantic skis...
who new those short races would be so hard. Even the fastest doods who are some of the fastest in ne were totally shelled at the end. Everyone wished the races were longer so that you could at least settle in a bit. Nope:)Quote:

. But yeah, I'll keep Aggy in mind next time I'm back in town... if I can ever split off for a free day thought on a non-winter visit, I'll definitely be running straight for Highland.

Me too!
nice viddy josh, mo-town is the vt riding rooler!
crazazy nice ride in the dirt this am! Every day!!!
If I didn't live in the cluster fuck roadways on the coast, I 'might' be inclined to buy a roadie bike, but I'd still wear my mtn bike gear and wave to the other bikers. When I was rehabbing my knee i used to take my bar bike up the coast wearing birks for shoes and pass 'some' of the weenies that looked the part. That was always fun. Of course the real weenies would blow by me.Quote:

Anyone want to ride tomorrow in NH/VT? Free all day. Up from anything within 1 or so hours of Lebanon, NH so Stowe, KT, STAB, Franklin Falls, Millstone, etc. would be in play. Bushwhacker any chance you're around? Would love to do another Stowe ride.
Rog, sticking around Leb this weekend so Aggy is a bit too far for me. North Conway though sometime...
Hmm. Uploaded pics went bad for some reason.

Cool cool.... yeah, let's do the 5th. You free the whole day?
SS Stowe suffferfest?!
I believe I am free the whole day. we could also go check out Morrisville as well...... depends on the wetness factor.
My SS is now a long travel hard tail so its more suffering going up but so much fun going down!
right on. With wifey about to pop i gotta stay close to home. But soon enough.Quote:

Josh, you'll have a great time riding with austin!
Huh.

Fuck 'em. Ditch the keg, make everyone carry their own libation.
Damn it granite! :smile: Another sidewall blown out. Looked like a clean knife cut...stuff is sharp!
Used some tube glue, gorilla tape, and the tire had stans already. The thing held air! I'm not going to ride it like that, I was just messing around to see if it would work. I can ride it with a tube and be fine for a good amount of time I'm sure, but I ordered a couple new Weirwolfs anyway.
Rode from the Sandwich Notch up Guinea Pond Trail to the junction of Bennett st trail and what I call Flat Mt Pond trail. I started kind of late but I think I can make to Flat Mt Pond.

we used to ride to the shelter at Flat Mt Pond, once or twice a year.
it's a long day, but it's beautiful out there.

Anyone in RI/CT interested in a fun event, check out the CCAP Donut Derby on October 25:

Here's some video from last year's event
hey Austin I PM you but no response!
I am trying to decide between the Bear Brook Boogie and Stowe with ya..... I think bear brook will be drier....
Night rides!
One of the trails I built a couple years ago a hunter had marked it out with these reflective tacks so he could follow it in the morning or evening hours. It's awesome for night rides, especially with leaves starting to cover the trails. You don't even notice them during the day.
So yesterday I went to the local hunting/outdoor shop (in my desk jockey work clothes) to buy some. The hunter dude employee was like 'those are for trails...trail marking!' Kind of tilting his head. I think he though I was looking to hang my Farrah Fawcett poster from '78 or something. Classic.
austin kinda sux to try to communicate with. I'm sure you'll hear from him late saturday night:DQuote:

Classic is right. Bet that guy has yosemite sam mud flaps, a gun rack, and a confederate flag on his dodge dakota:fm:Quote:

Whoops.... sorry I guess I'm not logged in most of the time I browse tgr. Anyway I was thinking Stowe or KT Sunday. I think I'll be with a friend who is a little on the slower side but is definitely a trooper who can keep going for ever and crank out plenty of miles albeit not at a record pace.
Anyway, I'll pm you my phone number and we can figure something out.
And Rog :the_finge even though it's true.

Well find something to ride hopefully not repeating much we did last time.
Rode Stratham last night and they're adding some new flowy bermed stuff thru the clear cut. It's going to be a nice addition when it gets broken in. I also rode two new (to me) trails...or maybe they're rerouted as they are partially in the clear cutting...but those were super fun trails also.
In Bear Brook they use old license plates cut into small rectangles works great.Quote:
