MTB: Tyler Mill (Wallingford, CT) RAW: 9/22

[Greg]

This weekend is looking like a long shot to get out and get in a decent ride and I just have to hit up at least that upper small drop again at Tyler Mill. I'd be content with the same loop we rode today (8 miles). I think powhunter still has Mondays off. I'm thinking a 4 pm start time again. Any suckers out there?

Nice! Still hoping to pull this off. Will confirm tomorrow.

 

[Grassi21]

the wife didn't give me the evil eye when i mentioned this. i would like to get some ridin in. i have a tues. lunch ride planned with some guys at work.

 

[Greg]

Feeling kinda crappy today, but I'm gonna try to make this ride. I may bail if I don't have any partners in crime. Who's in?

 

[Grassi21]

i'm pretty sure i can make this. if you bail i would ride waldo. win win for me. ;-)

Cool. I'm planning on it right now. I'll confirm for sure tomorrow.

 

[gmcunni]

i'm planning on riding also. i loaded your track from TM on my GPS (just for fun and learning). I'm calling LBS in the AM to confirm they'll have my bike ready. they said they'd try for 1, if they are running late I'll change my schedule and get the bike later and then drive directly to TM instead of grabbing it earlier.

i'll post if things go sour and i end up bikeless.

I wish I cold make it, was a fun place to ride but after being off last week I am sure I will be buried tomorrow at work.

I am thinking of maybe going later in the week stating around 4:30 at the bridge and just doing the ST up there.

 

[Grassi21]

ugh. i just got roped into some family stuff. not even direct family, helping my wife's cousin unload a moving truck tonight. i'm going to hit waldo at 4 and then go help them out. sorry greg and gary.

i was looking forward to an 8 mile add kicking tonight. seriously.

boo..

i have everything in my car, except for my bike. i'm calling LBS around 11 to confirm it will be ready. they promised it for 1:00 but looking at goole map, as long as it is ready by 3:00 i can make it to TM by 4.

when i rode in wallingford last week i left my house in southbury at 3 pm and made it to TM by 3:50 or so. i even made a quick stop at the lbs to buy socks. you should be fine.

 

[Greg]

Bummer Chris. I'm in. So, roll call:

Looking good, just got off the phone, bike should be ready @ 1. i'll grab it during lunch and then leave from office to get to TM.
