Probably just be easier to point 2knees in the direction of the dirt jumps on Stone Road. An easy 100 yard walk up the hill to them and then he can coast down to the car when he is done.

Nass is my plan, we could start from Stone road. No need to worry about holding anyone up.

Let me know if you're in. I won't be able to get there until about 6.

We could possibly change to Nepaug, which is more your style I think. But... 1) It's further away for you guys and 2) I'm not entirely confident that I could put together a loop that hits good stuff and gets us out of there in the ~2 hours of daylight that we'd have.

It's also a climb to get in which I powhunter mentioned he wasn't looking to do again..

It's nothing near the Meriden mtn climb from what I remember and they need to learn how to climb anyways!

Also looks like rain heading into that area shortly and they say it doesn't dry too quick there.

Rain could thwart our plans anywhere. :-? What I see on the radar now seems to be going across the southern part of the state for the most part.

Looks like this shit will be long gone by 6...Id still like to get a ride in...then have some beers...

I think there are suppose to be 2 rounds of storms, some now and then more this evening around 5-6. You guess is as good as mine as far as weather goes.
