**nerijusj** · 04-28-07, 06:49 PM

Forecast for Somerville tomorrow is showers all day. That's a no go for me

**breakdirt916** · 04-28-07, 06:59 PM

screw tomorrow, did anyone get out today?

I mounted the new rear tire and got a good 30 miles of scrubbing on it

**ejoy1220** · 04-28-07, 07:18 PM

Anyone in Western MA going for a ride Sunday?? Rt. 116-> 112 -> 2 West is an awesome route, and a very nice ride

Oh shit, where are you guys meeting up? I'm down.

I've been watching Pinpoint weather and it looks like the weather is going to be very similar to today. See you guys in the morning.

Get off 495 at rt95 north and then off at rt140 N and its about a mile on your right. Its a Shell gas station with a D&D in it. You really cant miss it since its pretty much the first thing youll pass and theres a HUGE pretty much empty parkinglot behind it.

**The Snowman** · 04-28-07, 07:43 PM

Joe, easier route than the one you suggest is to go one exit further south, the I95 exit. Go north I95 to the next exit, 140 north. Then it's only a mile up on the right side. The D&D is inside a Shell station.

If you get off on rt 1 north head 140 south. The Shell station will be on your left, about 3 or so miles down from rt 1.

Bring your GMRS/FRS radio equipment so we can see how well they work...

I actually never got it. I had some really big money problems come up on my Jeep (to the tune of $3400) which took priority. I ended up not doing some of the bike stuff I had wanted to do. (revalve and respring my forks)

I'll probably be there at 8:15 and getting myself a coffee.

**ahtune69** · 04-28-07, 08:00 PM

UPANDCOMING Yo Shell if it doen't rain in the a.m. I'll meet you at the hess gas station on highland ave. Tha same station where I met you and Dale for the bike show last year. Got it fool. I'll be there at 7:45, don't be late.

**union** · 04-28-07, 08:06 PM

I might stop by and say hi but theres little chance Ill be riding. I dont really feel like going all the way to bellingham to get my bike and I have a ton of stuff to do if its nice out.

**ahtune69** · 04-28-07, 08:09 PM

Anyone gonna be at the DD in Canton

**Josephd14** · 04-28-07, 08:13 PM

AHHHHH, It's seems velcro is holding it well, I put it on and shook my head all around a hell of alot more then it ever will shake and it holds strong, so I'll be able to drive everone nuts with my rambling..

**BigShel** · 04-28-07, 08:58 PM

Ok, who is going from the Bedford, MA Area?

Yo I am, You know where to meet me right.

**BigShel** · 04-28-07, 09:23 PM

I am watching Fox25 weather as I type and ALL I see is showers, so I dont think I am going to make it.

So whats the deal? I'm not sitting around here tomorrow, so riding it is. You easterly guys heading over this way, or what? I have no problem leading. If theres a group leaving from Umass, thats an easy way to make a route out of 116, 112, 9, 8, 2, whatever.

**duey** · 04-28-07, 10:11 PM

i won't be going on this ride, can't find my raingear and i still need to work on the bike. Next time though....

**Currently** · 04-28-07, 11:03 PM

I still got some maintainence to do on the bike.
Jim Pidgeon did not return my phone call ... I got to swap out a tire.

I also still have my oil change to do then I will be done.

New sprockets and chain went on pretty slick.
Still had a bit of life left on the old one at 20k miles on it but the
way I look at it is I want to ride this summer, not wrench.

Anyone interested in a used Pilot Road that still has thread left?
160/60 - 17 ... tire is starting to square off, just used for commuting.

Free to whoever wants it.

**JeffL** · 04-28-07, 11:03 PM

Yeah, I'm thinking I might just go up to the races, this week has me beat down, not feeling riding the bike right now, too tired.

**Punjistick** · 04-28-07, 11:44 PM

is this the DD on Main Street? If so, see you guys there.

No that wasn't me Kurt. I rode today for like an hour, but nowhere near Blue Hills.

Hope you guys have a nice and DRY ride tomorrow! ( Weather forecast in my area doesn't look too good

)

**Josephd14** · 04-29-07, 05:33 AM

Is there a 4/29 ride in the making???
