Great ride today. Met up with o3jeff for a quick 2 hour ride. We met at Stone Road at 7 am. On the drive in, I was greeted with frost in a few areas! Woohoo! We got started shortly after 7 am with temps in the low 40's.
We took the usual route in and then crossed the Tunxis and rode fire road pretty much to the dentist twisties. We did the south loop first and then made our way further south to some very rarely ridden terrain up on the hill. After a few backtracks, we put together a nice loop. We then headed north back to the Tunxis and rode the twisties including the newly raked section Brian mentioned from yesterday's ride.
Great loop in there. One nice roller and one very sick drop which we just looked at. Probably close to a 4 footer. We then finished out the northern twisties and hit the Tunxis back East. That rock garden in there is very tricky. My goal is to clear that someday. Great fun.
We then made our way to the free ride area. I tried the rock roller with the two ramps. Lots of fun. I also played around on the jumps for a bit while Jeff tweaks his brakes. I managed probably 2 credit cards worth of air this time.
Great ride. I'll have some pics and a short vid up later.
