RI after-work ride Thu or Fri

[ancosta]

My weekend is shot, so I wanted to get a quality ride in sometime Thursday or Friday.

Thinking of heading to MM Thursday, never been but heard it is worth checking out...? Maybe head towards CT on some good back roads?

I am a safe/sane, 2nd year rider looking to do (ironically enough) a safe & sane ride.

Can leave as early as 5ish, can ride until the cows come home. Logging >=150 miles would be a plus.

What time do RI cows come home??

Judging by what I saw last weekend, a lot of them left the Complex at last call, but they might have gone out to eat before going home.

[Awesome]

If my schedual is clear, I might be interested.

If your heading toward CT I might hook up.

MM out of the way for me through "thickly settled"

I got home at 10:45 last night. And I might be interested as well.

Cam, I got home about an hour earlier than that. I dont think Thayer St is as good as advertised by the way.

Cool to see you for a few minutes

[FazerChic]

What part of CT would you be headed??

[ancosta]

Wow its great to see so much interest on a weekday ride.

I should say that I am not too familiar with the roads here, I have this loop I was doing where I go up 295, on to industrial road, then theres some road (106?) that goes across a pond/reservoir, and just wander from there. I think it brings me to Route 6 at some point.

Think of me more as an eager riding partner and less like I know where I'm going.

Thursday I will be heading to MM on back roads and up for riding after hanging out for a little bit at MM, possibly a ride to get dinner somewhere after MM..

Leaving @ 5 from Framingham roughly.. I can alter my plans if anyone is interested to join.

Interested. I don't get out of work until 4:30. I should be riding in tomorrow, as long as it's not raining in the am. I live on the MA border right off 91. Anyone be in the area??

As it turns out my plans for tomorrow call for me leaving Providence and ending up in Salem MA. Going to MM makes more sense for me now than riding west into CT.

I can (hopefully) bail from Providence no later than 4:30, any idea on how quickly I could get up to Framingham? Not sure if it's cutting it too close or not.

If anyone in RI wanted to find a way to MM that works too...

if you are talking about the reservoir in Scituate RI, try riding on Rt 12, Rt14 thats a nice little loop. Although it is short

[ancosta]

Well my plan changes again. I am coming back to RI tomorow, so maybe up for a 2nd ride towards CT tomorrow PM.

Still planning to head up to MM from Providence in a couple hrs....any takers?

Going 1x, 2x..........

[Half Squid]

You have a pm Ancosta....

Leaving Framingham at 5:30 is fine with me then head to MM...

[ancosta]

See in you Framinham at 5:30!

[vaa]

Mind if I join the ride to MM. I'll have plans tonight but can head to MM if that's ok. Where in Framingham are you meeting?

[Half Squid]

You still there?

Rt 9 framingham next to Framingham Ford...
Leaving in 5 min...

[vaa]

Leaving right now.

[vaa]

Must have missed you guys. Oh well, maybe next time.

[ancosta]

Nice to meet you all yesterday. Next time I will get a small ice cream...that extra 35 cents worth was a killer...!

[skiierx]

Maybe next time we will even ride after MM!

Jamie

[Half Squid]

Ahhh Yes there's always next time....

Next time I will be leaving earlier, only staying briefly and yes riding afterwards! I have a few roads I found right down the road East bound on 2A/119 East from MM and need to adventure a little more!
