MTB: Nass - 11/9/08

[bvibert]

So I started a thread on Crankfire to ask about the nepaug trail conditions after a heavy rain. This is one of the responces I got:

"Rule of thumb after rain....stay on your own turf, leave other's trails alone....especially if you have to ask about drainage....
just say'n"

What and A-hole!!!!!

douche :roll:

Looks like some more rain coming though tonight. I'm fine with moving to more familiar territory if that's what everyone else wants to do.

Chime in if you have a preference, I'm gonna make the call by 10pm tonight. There will be a 7am start time and a 9am start, please post and indicate when you're going to show up. If there's no one on the list for 9am by 6:30 tomorrow morning then we will not be stopping for a 9am pickup...

I vote Nass/Scoville. The big loop at 7 am - 9 am. Pick up the beauty sleepers at 9 am and take it from there.

I am going to bail on you guys, I've got too much stuff to do tomorrow since I didn't get much done today.

7am
bvibert
Greg

9am
gmcunni (maybe?)

Where's all the other people who said they preferred Sunday?? :roll:
Tim, Pat? Gonna show or what?

 

[bvibert]

Since no else has shown preference towards Nepaug I'm gonna change this to Nass, where at least we know what to expect. The biggest reason I wanted to hit Nepaug was to see others hit some of the stunts which may entice me to try some too. From the sounds of it they'll be a little sketchy, being wet, muddy and all.

We'll be riding out of Scoville at 7am and stopping back there at 9am to pick up the sleepy heads unless no one confirms for 9am by 6:30am tomorrow morning.

I can't wait to check on crankfire to see who said that!! Other's trails??? Your own turf??? Unless the guy that wrote that post owns all the open land in CT he should shut his face!! Don't sweat him...I'll have the Crankfire mafia take care of him...hopefully he's not in the crankfire mafia.

I don't personally know the guy who made that post...He's definitely a bikerag and crankfire regular by seeing the amount of posts he has...and I've heard nice things about him from others I ride with...It almost seems to be a territorial post. I don't agree with his harsh stance...but, this shit happens. Tim, I'm sorry you had to deal with this...in the future, if you have a question about nepaug PM me so that you don't win the lightning rod award!! If I don't know the answer, I'll find it out from others.

Crankfire should be a site where you get a quick answer without an attitude. Please don't shy away from there because of this one time where someone was out of line..

 

[Greg]

Leaving now. Should be there before 7 am.
