[suggest a route] where should i ride tomorrow?

[spicy]

so the rain's hopefully gonna be done by early afternoon, with the wet roads drying shortly thereafter...

anyone care to suggest a decent loop from the boston-ish area up to maybe southern NH or ME or somewhere else? i'm looking for decent road surface and some bends.... nice scenery and low traffic certainly would be a plus as well. probably gonna aim for a 100-200mi loop, maybe a little more or less.

if anyone would care to join me, they're welcome to, probably going to set out early afternoon. pace is no crash/no tickets, but enjoyably spirited and hopefully work on wearing off some of my developing flat spot (damn you frequent Amherst <-> Boston commutes).

also it's most likely going to be of an exploratory nature, which may or may not mean turning around a bunch/getting slightly lost (can be a little taxing if it's a big group). solo or 2-up riders welcome, as long as you're not gung-ho balls to the walls crazy/stupid.

Tomorrow like today tomorrow? might be up for a morning ride...

[ThisBitch]

If you figure out where you're leaving from, the bitch and I are probably in.

[cbr_chick_nh]

so ... is anyone riding?

[G21forme]

I might be down, if you are coming up to nh maybe we could set up a place to meet on route?

[ThisBitch]

If there are enough NH people looking to ride, let's do it! I'll be ready any time after 1ish.

[cbr_chick_nh]

i can be ready now...

[cbr_chick_nh]

[G21forme]

I'm down, place/time?

[cbr_chick_nh]

Pace... well I already got my speeding ticket for the year, which makes 8... that with the wreckless op and arrest for the wheelie in Boscawen, lol... I suggest a moderate pace, nothing crazy... time? well Jackie said she could be ready ~1...

[G21forme]

I can be geared up by one and have no problems meeting up im manch or concord. Looks like the mass crew is sol

[spicy]

heh, sorry -- just woke up. i don't really know NH very well, so if you guys wanna suggest a meeting place pretty close to one of the main highways (93/95/3) just to keep meeting somewhere simple, i'm game.

drop me a line on AIM if anyone wants... screenname = dwnshft4pleasure

[TimD]

weather here really sucks I just got up as well.

[G21forme]

jnm / cbr got any decent routes in mind, my route planning sucks and you would all hate me.

[cbr_chick_nh]

13-149-202 perhaps

[cbr_chick_nh]

blue skies up this way... its nice.. might rain so dress accordingly...

we can meet in manch and maybe go west from there

[ThisBitch]

If we're going to 202, we should jump over to 123 and head into VT. One of my faaaaaaaaaaavorite roads.

I'd be happy to lead, but I'll be 2-up, so don't expect much more than 15+

[cbr_chick_nh]

we can go west north then route back south... somehow...

[cbr_chick_nh]

great idea... wanna go west from manch jump on 13 to 149 to 202? then you can take lead...

[spicy]

that works... where should we meet? keep in mind that tim and i probably don't know a goddamn thing about manchester, so simpler is better

[G21forme]

If we're going to 202, we should jump over to 123 and head into VT. One of my faaaaaaaaaaavorite roads.

I'd be happy to lead, but I'll be 2-up, so don't expect much more than 15+

sounds good to me, were is the best place to meet up in manch? a gas station would be nice, me and spicy are going to need some fuel

[ThisBitch]

If we're headed West... why don't we meet at the Dunkins off of exit 6 on 293? We can head down Goffstown Back Road and jump onto 13 from there.

[cbr_chick_nh]

the dunks across from the coke place?

[cbr_chick_nh]

we are probably best to take gback rd to 114 then... straight to 149... bypass 13...

[ThisBitch]

That's the one!

We can do that, I kind of like 13... but we can hit it on the way back.
