    Mass 8/5

    Nass 8/5 Decided to try to hit all the new stuff at the soccer fields. This is the area of Nass I have most neglected, so I never really knew it that well. I think I hit most everything.

    Disc brakes vs. V-brakes

    I've found that disc brakes perform better (in general in wet weather definitely). The deal breaker for me was riding in below freezing weather. My rim brakes were pretty much completely useless. The also pads seem to last longer. As for weight I can't imagine it would make enough difference...

    MTB - Sunday 7/24/11

    Putting my vote in for Rez. Saddlesore might come out and it seems centrally located. But I'm totally down for anything. I'm also kinda feeling a Sessions/J-Cake area ride.

    MTB - Sunday 7/24/11

    I can show you round Case, but I'm cool to stay closer to home too. Call the place. BTW I just remembered Touch My Cousin is playing Saturday which will mean I'll be even more debilitated Sunday. That should be fun.

    Honeymoon at Millstone 7/14

    Stole away for a day on my honeymoon to meet CT emigre Trev Thorpe for my first ride at Millstone Trails in Barre, Vermont. If you haven't been, I highly recommend. Millstone Trails is locally maintained by the Millstone Trails Association (MTA) and is situated around a bunch of old granite...
