    What's the difference between a bolt and a screw?
    First you screw, then you bolt.

    Sorry didn't see this post. Nice meeting you Matt. We veered off the route I planned but was definitely worth it. Here's a panoramic picture I took using the photosynth app.

    Sorry dude didn't see this post until now. I prefer to pm the details of the meeting spot and route instead of posting. Unfortunately I didn't see your post. Next time.

    Re: Labor Day Ride

    We should definitely do that again. Maybe find another way back besides Rt2 the entire way.




    When I have time I'll try to edit down the GoPro video I have and I'll email it.

    Cool shot. Almost like the guys with the BMW squaring off against the guys with the bikes.

    Re: Labor Day Ride

    No problem, i'll catch up with you guys next time. A nice alternate route back from the west would be Rt 2 to Shelburne falls road from shelburne falls down to 116 in conway. Take 116 toward Amherst, take left before Amherst that heads up into Shrutesbury (great twist roads) comes out on 202. Then you can take 202 to 122 or out to Rt 9 in Belchertown.

    Labor Day Ride

    I'm still annoyed by the fact I didn't stop to let that traffic to clear up! At least we found some other roads with that detour!
