PSTR Toys for Tots ride

[Chippertheripper]

'Tis the season:
Entry is 2 unwrapped toys. No stickers, no memberships, just come ride. The loop is 20(or so) challenging miles, but I know a noob or two that's gone out there and thrashed it.
This is a really fun day, a lot of people from all over New England, some crazy old guys on vintage bikes, and laughing at you buddies falling over.

If all goes perfect I will be there. It's unlikely though.

[gt_pedaler]

Any specifics like start time yet?

[Chippertheripper]

There will be a little line at sign ups for toy drop off/waiver/and collecting your card if you want to participate in the poker run portion.

Edit: this:Usually do sign up at 8:00am, ride at 9:00am and draw the poker run cards at 2:00pm.

Chip is this one 20 mile loop? Thinking of coming with my g/fs son on his cr85, but I don't even know if that thing can make it 20 miles on a tank, it empties pretty quick....

[Chippertheripper]

Yes, but they'll have a 1.5-2m grass track set up for the kiddies too. If that's too tame for him you might try sending him across the stream to the GL, and having him go right which dumps you on the field anyway, plus that other tiny section we use in between there...I'm not too sure what they'll use in real close like that. I'll ask around and get back to ya Steve.

[b0xmonkey]

Cool thanks. I'd like to get him some seat time out there but dunno if a 20 mile loop is the best idea, He has zero time on the new bike.

I'll see if I can find some mx wheels and tires for the KX. Sounds like a good time.

cool. bring an AED, I might need it.

JohnnyA says his cr85 will make a full loop. There's a couple small sections in close (before the big water hole on the gas lines) that I'd send him out on and see if he likes the rocks. .02

[b0xmonkey]

Good plan. I'm gonna borrow scotts black wheel 200. Wearing my roadracing boots and gloves, street helmet, I'll be looking sharp!

[Chippertheripper]

OH SNAP!!

[B440]

Thinking about doing this. Where is Demoranville farm? And would a KX100 be ok? I put the big bike away.

And for clarification: no AMA, or NETRA, or etc. membership needed? So my friend who is a noob can ride?

[Chippertheripper]

No memberships whatsoever. 2 toys/rider.
Arrowed off exit 8, rt 140. 80 chase rd Freetown mass.
The kids ride the big wheels...it might wear you out less, except your left forearm from clutching the balls off it. Brap!

I've got a 2 place sled trailer with only my scooter on it and lots room in the suv. If anyone wants to carpool I live in Lowell. Early roll out, stop for breakfast, get there around 8:00-ish. call or text 978-973-7648.

[gt_pedaler]

Maybe a breakfast place can be suggested. Make it an unofficial meet up before the ride.

[Chippertheripper]

Bumpage. I have no boots for ya Steve. I have a few extra pairs of 10's, but no 13's.

[B440]

None of my friends want to go. Anyone going that lives near Thompson, CT? I have a 5x8 trailer and plenty of room in the suv for gear.
