Anyone up for a ride this weekend? Probably should do the East Stone area to familiarize ourselves with it some more. I am pretty open so let me know what works best for you.

I am planning on riding there on Sunday (maybe Sat. )morning with a couple of friends, your welcome to join us. I already talked to Brian and Greg and Sunday morning doesn't look good for them. I think we will be parking at Scoville and doing the main loop.

I really can't commit to anything. One thing I know for sure if I do get out Saturday or Sunday, it will be a late afternoon thing. I'll post something here, but it will probably be last minute. If I do get out, I'll be riding out of Stone.

I'm going to do a quick ride early tomorrow morning. Starting at Stone Road at 7 am and I'm going to do a fast-paced ride for two hours. Plan to hit all the twisties and maybe some exploratory of trails I haven't ridden yet. Anyone down?

Bueller? What are you guys afraid of the cold....?

NWS said:
Tonight: Patchy fog after 11pm. Patchy frost after 2am. Otherwise, mostly clear, with a low around 35. East wind around 5 mph becoming calm.

Time for the long sleeve for tomorrow's ride.

I would love to join you and check out Stone rd. But I have a bunch of things to do this weekend around the yard and I am already riding on Sunday morning.

Seeing chances of me riding Sunday don't look so good right now I might as well meet Greg tomorrow. I just have to be done around 9.

Will have to try and dig up something warm to wear.

Awesome, Jeff! I'll definitely need to be done riding at 9 am too. Here's what I'm wearing:

  • Two synthetic long sleeve shirts
  • Long polypro bottoms under my biking shorts
  • Hiking socks which are thicker than my typical riding socks
  • Polypro balaclava if it's really cold
  • Just going to go with my usual riding gloves - this will probably be where I get cold
Any other brave souls? 7 am. Stone Road.

Gear up and bring the misses along. This will be quick as we'll be done by 9 am. Not really a crazy ride just fast.

I'd love to join you Greg, but tonights ride didn't go all that well and I don't think I'll be up for it.
