Not on the group rides, but I believe Tom has included in one of the self guided rides on the day off.

Thumbs Up

Wishing all of you a safe ride to & from the rally.
I know you will have a great time.

I saw this quote & liked it:
"You can forget what you do for a living when your knees are in the breeze."
Cheers!

I hope you have better weather than I did last year. We started nice and sunny at the bottom by the time we got past the tree line it got cloudy. Towards the top we were in a rain cloud. Misty-light rain, 40 mph winds couldn't see more than 10ft. in front of me. Scary with those conditions got back down and said holly crap that was fun. Kind of a letdown you get your "This bike climbed Mt. Washington" sticker when you first pay. Should be when you make it to the top.

Fighting a bad cold at the mement,hope to shake it soon. Still have yard work to do. Have had my bike luggage spread out on the family room floor for the past week. Will start packing this morning,just so I can start unpacking the stuff I can go with out. The weather is still showers for head out time early Sunday morning. So plan to pack the bike some time Saturday but keep the "RAIN GEAR" handy. Can't wait to meet all my "NEW FRIEND's".
To all,it can never be said enough. "Take care of youself and each other,and RIDE SAFE".

Been watching the weather forecast closely for next week, and as is typical for New England, it changes daily. Best guess is it will be a bit unsettled, but overall not too bad. Nonetheless, make sure you have your rain gear handy. Also, a little cooler than normal for early August, especially in the evenings.

For those doing the Zip-Line Tour, our tour is scheduled for Wednesday at 9:30 AM. We will be leaving the motel at 8:30. Please gather in front of the motel at 8:15 AM with a full tank of gas. Also, please re-reead the guidelines at the top of the thread "Bretton Woods Canopy Tour Update" to make sure that you are fully prepared to get the most out of this activity. For the rest of you, you don't know what you're missing.

Everyone have a safe trip, and as the signs coming into the state say, "Bienvenue Au." I think that means "State Liquor Store Ahead."
