    Ride: 10/08.12

    Just want to see if anyone want to join me for a ride tomorrow. I'm going to leave from the Boston area, and turn back at Mt. Greylock. Meeting location and stands up time is still flexible but I'm thinking of meeting in Watertown off the pike and leave around 9AM. We should be back by dark. The pace would be spirited at the right places. Jacket, boots, helmet, and gloves should be the minimum.

    I want to include more people. If another location is better, let me know.

    You should come for a definite good time. Golden Chicken and I are meeting in Acton. meeting place is Dunkin Donuts on rt 27, where it intersects with rt 2. Stands up at 9:30. Mt Greylock is not definite, but we're going to western mass into Vermont.

    Woke up this morning feeling too lazy to ride that far. I'll probably be making a leisurely loop of the lakes region today.

    All ya'll ride safe, have fun.

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

    Only managed a little under 200 miles. 6 hours 30 minutes, including some photo and warm-up stops. Went with the summer gear with the LJ's under. Bad move, shoulda gone with the warmer gear. Brrr!

    Leaves 'n twisties makes it all worthwhile though.

    Even found some vaguely adventury mud.

    I went about 260 miles today, SwiftTone probably about 300. I got back about 10 minutes ago. We had a few stops to warm back up and one for lunch.
