Hey all, I am planning on setting up a ride in August to get forum members from here to get together, meet, eat, and ride.
The plan- is to have people meet at my house in Central Mass. (Templeton) on Friday the 5th of August in the afternoon/evening. We can have a BBQ with food and brews, work on bikes, chat, meet and greet, and so forth. People can camp out in the back field and we will leave for the ride Saturday morning.
The route- take Route 2 west to the Mohawk Trail, then down route 8 to the Westfield area, then a few roads to get onto 116 (Great road) back to route 2 and back to Templeton. If time permits and people want to we can head up to NH/VT and ride some roads up there. This is all preliminary at the moment and we can change the route if people would like. Just as long as we get a full day of riding in and rip up the twisties!
The pace- I ride about 10 or so over the limit on the straight sections of road, passing in a passing zone if necessary, and riding more spirited in the twisties. No one gets left behind, ride your own safe pace.
If you are interested please add your name to the list, and if there are any questions feel free to PM me or post up here. And remember we can all sit down and pick out a final route Friday evening so it is not set in stone. let me know what you all think.
