    That may be a good plan. I'm in Peabody. I'll give a confirmation tomorrow around 7pm. Sound good?

    Tentative route for NH riders here unless someone has a suggestion. Meeting time would be 10 AM at the Shell on exit 6 in Manchester.

    Just a reminder the Westford ride is Newbie, average pace. More spirited riders might want to head to Manchester for Jackies ride

    Thanks, see you all in a bit

    Re: new concept for a ride....

    Fun time today ~ was nice meeting everyone. Thanks for organizing/leading Sheppo

    The only pic I got was of the trebuchet with the guy climbing it...and I got a video of the first one (that fell out of the sling) - but that's worthless...

    Re: new concept for a ride....

    Good time today guys. I didn't realize average pace for Harley's meant glacially slow for the rest of us.

    Thanks Sheppo for showing me some new roads before we split off.

    The ride home was fun too. Never been on Rt 122, I'll have to try it with less traffic sometime

    well... atleast you saw some new roads

    The ride didn't start out for a ride with Harley, but what the hell, it was a good day to ride anyway.

    Re: new concept for a ride....

    ^ definitely a good day. It's all good. I love that lane blocking too. We need to do more of that with NESR on the big rides. I wonder if sport bikes can get away with that.

    Good stuff - fantastic weather, and always good to meet new folks!

    Dontpanic, Danno, great to hook up with you guys for the route back - was great, despite random detours

    Re: new concept for a ride....

    Great ride today guys! Nice to meet hellion and friends, we enjoyed relatively light traffic and a great pace, not to mention a statie who apparently had something better to do than pull us over

    Perfect end to my riding season!

    Re: new concept for a ride....

    Doug, thanks for pulling this together. I appreciate your pulling riders from different groups and really enjoyed the diversity of bikes and riders. The weather, pace and stops were perfect for this geezer's possible last all day ride this season.

    Good to match faces and bikes to handles. Dontpanic and Wanderer, it was fun to go "exploring" with you guys on the ride back.

    Wanderer - is the handle self fulfilling or... just a statement?

    I had a great time today. It was a big change for my normal rides but I definitely had a blast. Thanks again Sheppo for putting it together and keeping that big ass group together. Then again it's not hard when the group moves like cows grazing. j/k man, good work.

    Thanks for organizing the ride Sheppo. I had a great time. It was actually nice to go slower than break-neck speeds for once. I actually got to see some of the scenery.
