Forecasting an inch of rain tomorrow/tomorrow night so that takes Tuesday and maybe Wednesday out of play. Maybe Thursday somewhere? I'm up for something different if we have a tour guide. Nepaug? Brooksvale? Penwood?

I am planning on riding the Rez with a co-worker Wed. after work. I just hope the weather holds out. If it deosn't I am SOL, no other nights really work for me.

What's your start time? Probably couldn't get out there before 6 pm.

I'm up for something. I wouldn't mind getting out on Wednesday, seems like a nice birthday present to myself. I'll have to check out the schedule to see what else we have going on this week.

I am planning on being there. Want to get to know the loop in case I end up riding there solo one day.

Thursdays are no good for me.


A fair chance I can get out for Wed RAW @ 5:15ish. Need to know where to meet up, shouldn't be too hard to figure out.. never rode at any of those places.. good stuff.

Greg or Brian can advise me if I am up to whatever ride it is that is being planned, I don't wanna be holding back a gang buster speed ride by any means. If that is the case, I can solo Nass or something - and be quite pleased in doing so :) as I don't mind riding solo much..

When you pull into the res, they now force you to the left, park as far back as you can. I'll have a dark blue Pacifica and Mr.evil should have a silver Ford pick-up.

Don't worry about speed, I am not a fast rider so you'll keep up to me atleast.

You are more than welcome to join us at the Rez on Wed as long as the rain doesn't become a problem. Like I said in an earlier post, this will be a slower paced ride. I am taking a co-worker for his first time out. He is in really good shape, but the technical aspects of the ride may slow him down.

Sounds good, I'll see what I can manage with the kids and try and be there.

Hope the rain holds off enough :)

I have to get out of work here in the next 15-25 mins to squeeze out a 6pm RAW at Scoville or wherever at Nass... bike is home.. :(

Interested though...
