I think we need to go upstate for a change. BM sounds good to me for this Sunday. 7am wheels down so we can finish early and stay off the traffic congestion. what do you guys think?

Missed this discussion yesterday. I have to pay better attention  I am up for Blue this weekend. they also have a biking festival going on this Sunday, but there's probably 35 miles of trails, 75% of it is single track so we dont have to worry about crowding Early is even better, I think we can beat the park charge of $8/car by getting there before 8am as well. |

That sounds great viking, I'd like to come too...  Did anyone else sign up or is the forum only paying attention to CHP horses poo poo these days? |

big brown here checking in ;D ;D ;D
I'm excited about Friday nite ride and hopefully CHP is rideable otherwise maybe we should try Stillwell (just a suggestion).
BTW, Sunday Blue Mountain - we should all just meet by CHP 6-6:15am and carpool. We should all try to share the expenses.
what do you say boys?

SSGladiator ask Adonis if he wants to come with us this Sunday in Blue Mountain. He mentioned to me in Chimney Rock that if we were going to Blue Mountain let him know cuz he'll come with us. Viking are you planning our route in Blue already? GaryCruz nice pony! ;D |

I do have a route in mind and it has good mix of climbs, techie stuff, fast sections and maybe a couple of stops to play and try those rollers I posted pics of before. I am bringing my FS and an extra tube. Westchester=Rocky, though it's not chimneyRock rocky We can cut it short or extend it towards the end depending on the shape we're in that day. It's gonna be hot as hell , 95 degrees, so an early start is a must if we want to get some miles done. No losing weight sunday, fill your camel back all the way up!! energy shots!! whatever you need to not cramp up. As for car pooling; tolls, gas and maintanence sure adds upp with all this driving so let's post up who's coming so we can plan it. Since I live right by the queens boro bridge I usually take the FDR up to avoid tolls, but I rather go to CHP to fill up a car. I guess it depends on SSGladiator and garyCruz coming up from brooklyn. Looking forward as always guys. |

What time will be there? 7:30AM parking lot? 8AM Wheels down? GaryCruz bring lots of energy gels I don't want to see you losing your reputation that you got in Chimney Rock. SSGladiator did you get in touch with Adonis and BigGary? Are they coming? BTW how was your night riding last night at CunnY? Did anyone wipe out? |

Did anyone wipe out? i think they said to get there b4 8am for free parking. also, I was told that there is a festival there tomorrow, so earlier might be better. I just got in touch with adonis, and he won't be able to ride tomorrow. nite ride was fun for the first 10 min. no one wiped out. there rest you'll have to find out from Big Brown. see ya in am. |

I think 6-6.15 am is a good time to leave town. That means we should be able to hit the trails at 7.30 with some BS before start. I will be driving with SSG. Most likely we will not pass by the lot for refills so make sure you can bring enough liquids/snacks for a long nice loop from the beginning. SSG; directions to me. -BQE to exit 33 mcGuiness BLVD - -mcGuiness BLVD over pulaski bridge - -after bridge make a right on Jackson Ave - -make left on 21st street -from 21st street make a right on 41st Ave -continue up to 29th Street I'll be the only fool on the corner at that time |
