I'm HOOKED!!!!

[drjeff]

Didn't take me long.

I've got about 30 minutes of work to do this afternoon and unlike normal days when I save all my chart paperwork for the end, nope all done right now. Why, because I get to go for a RAW as soon as I get home

I was a bit pissed off yesterday with the downpours that hit CT as they caused the weekly Tuesday night LBS sponsored RAW to be cancelled.

Yup, I'm hooked

Congrats, Dr. Jeff. If you want any beta on any of the trails around NE CT or S - Central Mass, let me know. I've been riding around here for about 12 years now.

I am with you man! I am totally in love with riding. So glad I bought my bike a month ago. I will have to post some trip reports of Maine rides pretty soon

 

[Greg]

Niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiice!!!!

The early MTB learning curve is as steep and addictive as it is with skiing. Enjoy it!

Sick..I think the only thing that has kept me from M-Biking is possible injury...

GSS, you should really try it. Great exercise and kinda addicting... The adrenaline rush is very comparable to skiing, only you don't stay awake all night looking out your window to see how much new snow has fallen.

When Blue has rentals for lift-served I'll do it. I never liked the uphill parts...so would want to just coast downhill and not peddle..lol

The uphills will give you some mad steezy quads which will then be in prime shape for out running the Blue patrol in primo tuck position!!

One thing I found out last night is that powder face shots are definately better than mud face shots!

Marc, I'll guarentee that I'll be picking your brain for some insight as to trails in NE CT! Thanks

I figure Root that pretty soon, I'll be loading the Orion, using the cooktime for a MTB ride, and then arriving back home just in time for some GREAT refueling food for the belly and some serious rehydrating with some Blackbeary Wheats!

Sounds like you just figured out the meaning of life (in the summer, of course) .

There you go....I ride before work!!! I need to work out early in the day.

 

[jarrodski]

you're checking account will never be the same.... now you have two expensive activities that consume you.

espeically at the beginning, mtb is really expensive. watch your shifting, as for some reason chains explode and derailers fall off... i felt like i was 12 years old, about to cry, because my bike kept breaking down. another thing that cost me a lot of money was tubes... watch that rear wheel...

enjoy! see you on the trail

DrJeff if you want a guide for Mansfield Hollow or Goodwin let me know. Both are fairly easy single trac with a variety of loops to customize the ride.
