Randi, Pat and I will be riding either Case Mt in Manchester Ct or the West Hartford Rez. Sunday morning around 8:30 am. Regardless of location this will be an easy paced ride with some sessioning thrown in. By sessioning I mean everyone else standing around watching Pat jump of stuff. Once a decision is made for the ride location I will post directions to the trail head.

I would be in for a WHR ride, have plans in the afternoon so Case would probably interfere with getting back in time.

FYI - Case is only about 15 minutes east of the Rez. But I will go with the majority on this one.

It looks like the Rez. works best for everyone. So unless we need to change the time we will meet at the main lot off of Famington ave at 8:30. The parking lot we used last year is no longer open. After you enter the park you will take your first left into the new visitor parking area, park as far back as you can.

9:00 is the latest I would want to push this, I would like to have the afternoon to do stuff around the yard. I know the Rez fairly well so a route shouldn't be an issue.

A couple of things:

1. Helmets are manditory at the Rez.
2. Make sure you have atleast one spare tube on you for the ride. Lots of sharp rocks there.

Someone needs to bring a video camera to capture 2knees hucking off everything and the garanteed Powhunter crash.
