Ya, Saturday. If you go will you use your bike or rent? If you plan on renting I was told it's a good idea to call and reserve a bike just incase.

Not quite yet. I'm sitting at home sick right now.


Got your bike at school yet? Lets hit up Vietnam soon.

Awf, have you been there before? If not, you'd probably love the place. Maybe 2knees will start a thread or something with pictures from today. The place is awesome!

Here's a blurry shot of 2knees jumping the mulch.....

I copied this and the rest of the posts to a new TR thread. Looks like a good ride that deserves it's own TR.

If you guys hit Vietnam let me know, I ahave always wanted to see that place. I think 2knees wants to get there as well

 

[eatskisleep]

Yeah I'd probably be down for that, or even some Bruce and Tom's, NE's best kept secret.

Is that place open, I read on MTNR that Bruce And Tom closed it

 

[eatskisleep]

Send me a link to the article. Dieselbikes did a group ride there two weeks ago so I doubt that is the case. Only reason I could see them close is if they got a ton of rain in a short period of time causing the trails to turn to mud... but most of the stuff there is rock crawling anyways...

I read it on MTBR a couple of months ago, and I think it was an older thread when I read it. The jist was that Bob and Tom were sick of some the a-holes they had to deal with. People were giving their families hard times a d even making threats. So they decided to close the place. Maybe they had a change of heart.

Yep things must have changed, I talked to bruce this summer and it's all good.
