Pre-banquet ride

[Kurlon]

Well, I for one had fun riding woods like a bunch of pansies.

Seconded.

[SVRACER01]

i as well. very sore today. went to bed at about 9 last night. up at 8 this morning lol
i managed to only fall once. had a whole bunch of oh-shit-im-going-down-nope-im still-going moments though lol

I think you got the wrong meme-

I thought it looked odd but didn't know better

Please...
I'm sure it was marginally more rugged than loudon, but you all still ride woods like a bunch of pansies. Except jc, he does man shit.

It's all about the grin-o-meter and that was at an all time high

[csmutty]

Effin awesome time! All you should be ashamed for not coming.

Lol. It's always a love affair at first.

[nhbubba]

Just so we know, from now on I'm calling that big pine as you turn the corner there on Sugar Hill loop "Isaac's tree". Hope that works for everyone.

I'll take the fun riding and leave that rugged manly orthopedic surgery stuff to you and J.C.

Lol. It's always a love affair at first.

I thought it was more like rape looking in from the outside.

Just so we know, from now on I'm calling Isaac's bike the BBC, because it was big and stiff and he went down on it eagerly.

[Mr. Kurtz]

I have no clue, still, how Isaac got his bike stuck between that tree and that rock.

I had a blast. I am absolutely SPENT from this weekend though. I'll be back for more.

I don't know Smutty, I've been doing it for a while and the shit eating grins just keep coming.

I was just saying that in response to his post saying everyone who wasn't there missed out.

I'd claim it as accomplishment, if I were you. Gotta spin this stuff properly.

[nt650hawk]

every time I talk to Billy after riding there, there is another epic episode!! maybe he is just getting ready for Alaska for when he swamps a bike. Yes/NO?

While we are talking NH trails. Anyone ride the Sullivan County trails? Claremont area.
Looks like 55 miles of trail and its a fair bit closer for me

[nhbubba]

Are those the trails that are ATV only; no 2-wheelers allowed?

Claremont is not near me. But equidistant for some of you and it seems fair to share that particular pain. Although I do love me some Hop-Ev.

Someday I need to ride Jericho.

Re: Isaac's tree. I feel obliged to remind folks that my first time out I endo'ed the DRZ down a rocky hill, inches from taking Oxx with me, between two massive pines into the netherlands all because I wasn't paying attention. There was an easier way 2' to my left.

So, you know.

Haha, thanks for trying to lessen my embarrassment?

... Truth is I'm not embarrassed. It's like everything else that requires practice. Just have to get out there and practice some more!

2 Wheelers are good...

Nor I. Just trying to dig in and share with your .. your .. not being embarrassed.

All that is needed now is a date, a time and directions to the parking spot to access these trails of which you speak. Once those things are in place we might have a group (or even a couple of people) to go ride there with.

I'd love to see a trail map but don't feel like waiting for snail mail to get one from the club. I wish more clubs would sell you a .pdf that they email to you. It's not like someone can't buy the map, scan it and distribute it if the club is trying to prevent people just sharing it with their friends.

Yeah, that was fun! Stupidest crash ever, and that water was cold.

I had a blast riding with you guys, every year it is always an adventure. I was disappoint that more of the crew didn't show up but not surprising, talk is cheap on the interwebs

Carsick, I supplied your beer. Isaac now has an official landmark. Trouble was the first official crasher (didn't make it out of the parking lot). Fenderless Cole is as crazy on the dirt as on the asphalt. And everyone that showed won!

Thanks to all who showed, see ya next year!!

i agree with that. i contacted the new durham club, that allegedly has 50+ miles of trails, about a map. they told me that they dont have one.
im sorry, did you say that youve been maintaining these trails since 2003 and you dont have even the most rudimentary of maps? sign me up for that club.

I'll get a map for that Sulivan. Thinking about a Black Friday ride there for recon.

Sucks I'll be on a plane on Black Friday so won't be able to join. That Sunday however I may be available.

No Friday because I'm working, but Sunday I can do! Kinda like Joel.
