Tyler Mill, CT RAW - 9/18/08

[Greg]

Great ride tonight. Met up with migs 01, o3jeff and Grassi21 at Tyler Mill in Wallingford, CT. I've never been so I'm not sure where we rode, but we seemed to ride some variation of the standard out and back kinda ride. migs did a great job leading us with a few consultations of Jeff's GPS.

Cool place. Definitely a well ridden area. The place is all about skinnies though. They are effin everywhere. I took the smaller of two back to back drops. I ended up airborne for what felt like a good long time, but I landed cleanly and was happy I tried it.

Anyway, here's the Crankfire track. Ended up being a bit over 8 miles in just a tad over 2 hours. Not bad. Chris did a great job keeping up. This will definitely be a good RAW option for me since it's so easy to get to from work.

Nice ride fellas. Glad to meet you migs.

Fun ride compared to my Monday visit there. Definitely worth going back to ride. Lots of up and downs, but some good trials.

Thanks again Miggs for showing us around.

As long as they're like 10" off the ground, I'm game. :lol:

That teeter was pretty cool this afternoon though. I just wish I didn't ride off it and smash down onto the big log supporting it. Clumsy bastid.

This weekend is shaping up to be rough to be able to get out for a ride. I might be back at TM as soon as Monday afternoon.

Sounds like you guys had a good ride, I may have to try and make it there sometime. The 4:00pm start time makes it real tough for me though.
