Well, it's been a while coming, but I think I may have decided on a date....route is still TBD.
Saturday July 28th (rain date Sunday July 29th).
Kickstands up at 9AM (from wherever we depart from) - likely southern NH, possibly in the Jaffrey area.
Duration will be roughly 3-4 hours.
Pace: slightly above speed limit (aka normal travel speeds). I am not out to get tickets or win prizes, no one is scouting the next big thing in roadracing.
There is an 8 bike limit (not including myself and my sweeper).
Why it's a "Newbie" ride: so many newbs aren't terribly familiar with group ride rules, or comfortable riding in a large group for their first time out. It is a way to get to meet other riders in a smaller ride setting, and get a feel for the basics of group riding without the (inherent/intrinsic) pressure to keep up a pace that may be near the top or above limits. It is also a great way to get a loved one out on the back for a group ride that is a more two-up friendly pace.
As always, all experience levels and motorcycles are welcome (even scooters).
Requirements:
-Willingness to have fun
-Basic road gear, including (but not limited to) long pants, closed toe shoes, a protective jacket, helmet, gloves and eye protection. Jeans and sneakers are OK, but you may catch shit for it (heck, Rob did last year).
-Acceptance of tips from other riders

Jaffrey is right around the corner from me. I'd be interested to see what roads are chosen. I've been on one group ride before, but I definitely need to work on my "group etiquette".

I will be coming from south of Boston. So I hope the meeting place is closer to the NH/MA border.
I can say whether or not I can make it once the meet up spot is posted and if it is close enough to MA.

My friend and I would be interested.
Let me google jaffery NH from Waltham MA.
15 mins is too far? J/K it's just north of Winchendon, MA. With any luck we have a buddy near there who will join us. Just got a bike last week.
Spots are filling rather quickly...if there is enough interest this year, I may do a round 2 in August to get those who can't make it.
