I'm looking to do a 7am ride near-by on Sunday, either Nass or Nepaug. I have a family function in the afternoon, so I need to be done riding by like 10:30.

i cant make 7 unfortunately. I didnt think dee was working but she is and i'm not sure my mother wants to babysit the second she gets out of bed. I could do 8:00 but I know brian has somewhere to be. I'll probably just head over to nass and ride the little bit i do remember from what Jeff has shown me.

If we do Nass, we could easily swing back to Scoville. There are plenty of options where we could start at 7 am and be back at the lot around 8-8:15.

Bummer Pat. We could probably arrange it so that our ride goes through the lot at 8 if you still wanted to ride with us. It wouldn't be the first time we did something like that.

that works for me as long as it doesnt interrupt your ride too much.

Ok, Nassahegan it is. Starting a yet to be determined short loop at 7am, swinging back through the lot at 8am to pick up the stragglers, then riding for another 2.5 hours or so.

Was thinking Nepaug.


lets set something up for next week or weekend. I'd be willing to poke around there blind for a while knowing that you can get some of the good stuff off of the powerlines.

Just wait till the fat kid climb. I hope you have your 20 oz. Poland Spring bottle all topped off. :lol: The DH's are worth it though. Some fun rocky areas too.
