Pre-Huge Group ride Adventure....

**Half Squid** · 09-13-05, 10:56 AM

SUNDAY 9/18..... 10 AM...

I am going to be somewhat westerly early Sunday Morning but probably hung over... I was thinking of doing a test run on some routes in western mass/Southern VT to plan ahead for the HUGE Sept 24rth ride.

Anyone care to join the adventure, and or possibly make suggestions for possible routes to try out or places for a LARGE group to eat lunch???

Start time would be like 10 AM somewhere West of Worcester area? I'll look at a map and find a junction to meet up later..

I'm subscribing to the thread...as long as I'm semi-functional on Sunday morning, I want in. I've been neglecting my baby lately.

I PM'ed you with a few choice roads you might want to check out, had you not ridden them before.

Don't get your hopes up on Mike showing up... Unless he's changed a lot (doubtful) he will be in no condition to ride at all on Sunday. Place your bets

**theothersean** · 09-13-05, 07:04 PM

He would be lucky to be out of bed by noon

I've been known to be wrong before but my money is on him not making that ride.

**theothersean** · 09-13-05, 07:09 PM

Oh we are bastardizing his thread,

Hey mike I think the outback ( not the chain resturant) up in vt near stratton could accomodate us if you called ahead as in the week before with an aprox arrival time . they could plan the staff accordingly to accomodate us. Keeping in mind that there may be 50 or so showing up but that it would be in waves of about 10 or so with a gap in between .

Great thanks Chr1s I'll give them a heads up and plan my route around lunch there for sure! They have always taken good care of us!

If we left at 9:30 roughly how long would it take us to get there???

**GadgettR1** · 09-14-05, 10:21 AM

Mike are you going to be printing up a map of the route you want peeps to take on the group ride?

You dont need enough for everybody. If people can stay somewhat together, you'll only need a few key people to have a route map.

If he's a no-show at the cookout, he may make it for the ride!! But if he shows for the cookout, fagetaboutit, especially with the Stoner's going

**Half Squid** · 09-15-05, 12:00 AM

Ya know these guys are right. I am going to play it safe and bail now! Saturday night is going to be crazy...

Coddling my hangover with coffee and Bagels sounds much better after the night we are going to have..

Those are good roads for Western Mass, but we are heading to the Outback At Winhall River, Bondville, VT for lunch, then some more roads north for those that want to cont. on.... Some i am sure will head back from there. I will be making a loop back towards Springfield area and possiblyhead head around the Quabbin res and skip over to the Pike in Worcester.
