Dates October 5, 6, 7 (8?)
It's Columbus Day Weekend so we could potentially get the lodge for Sunday night as well if enough monkeys have Monday off.

Where: Kingdom Trails, East Burke, VT (Algonquin Lodge)

Cost: Should be about $50 per person (less if more people sign-up)
Includes: Lodging, snacks, dinner 1 night and 2 breakfasts.

Note: Please confirm your spot sooner rather than later!!! Once you are on the list, you will be expected to pay for your space in the event that you aren't able to come (and can not fill the space).
So,
Who's in??? How long can you stay???

I'm out too, sorry.

BTW, next year, we need a Monkey gathering here: Back Country Excursions

I talked to Cliff about it over this past weekend while I was there (ride report coming soon), he'd be happy to have us and can work with us on a package deal for the weekend with a decent sized group.

 

[MtnBikerChk]

"Trails- 18 miles of 'em!"

hello? ok that will take maybe 3 hours, and then what?

 

[S.n.a.k.e.]

Its the weekend *after* my birthday...

I came *this* close to going last year, but had to do a show instead. If I do go, I would like to find other monkeys to ride with or split my ride / keep me awake.

Y'all haven't seen the new bikey...

That will be the first weekend after I get back from Bend. Assuming I come back from Bend. Might be a little too soon to head out of town again.

 

[JRogers]

I'm not sure if I can do it yet. School starts in a few weeks and I have no idea what that'll be like.

"Trails- 18 miles of 'em!"

How about some swimming or river tubing, playing on the features on the expressway trails, campfire, hot tub, hanging out drinking beer, ride the trails in a different loop or direction. Sure, he may not have the mileage that KT does, but a weekend at Cliff's is just as much fun as I've had at the KT Monkey gatherings.

 

[Echo]

Actually I'm retarded, that weekend should be fine, I will verify and let you know.

 

[MtnBikerChk]

Robyn and I are a maybe. We may have a family commitment that weekend. If we do go Robyn may only ride one day and spend the other days visiting a friend. I'm thinking I would like to stay in the lodge with you guys this time (although the hot tub at the Inn was very nice). We should know next week.

the inn is booked. it's foliage season you know

I know, I know.... As much as it pains me, I'm headed to Colorado at the end of Oct. and can't do both in one month. So, this time, riding out west > MF.

All the more reason why we need DECK PARTY DATES TREESAW!!!!

Not if it is like Spier Falls, then we'll be looking at a full day of riding with the possibility of it becoming a night ride when we get lost and have to make a detour for water.

Sadly I won't be able to make it. Gonna be backpacking through Glacier National Park or rock climbing in Utah at that point, preferably bagging some peaks before the winter snow hits.

We really need 20 to keep the cost at $50.

 

[splat]

does not look very promising for me

 

[MtnBikerChk]

wtf?

 

[BadDNA]

wtf?

I'm willing to bet that the biggest problem keeping people from going is that it is a holiday weekend and a lot of us have prior commitments. I've got to go close up the summer house on Lake Champlain for example.

 

[splat]

wtf?

Peter is in Fall Baseball, I'm one of the coaches and that is going to be the Tournament.

 

[TreeSaw]

Would people prefer if I moved it back a week (we can't go up a week earlier...it's booked I believe)?

The following week is bad for me.

I think we have plans on the 13th.

but whatever. if more people can go that weekend then book that one. We may go the weekend before....and of course, we just got back about a half hour ago

 

[I Are Baboon]

....and of course, we just got back about a half hour ago

We rode a brand new trail that parallels Tody's...first day it was open. It's not even named yet.

That weekend works better for me too. I'd be in.

and yada yada yada, I'm very tired today.

 

[douglas]

So what is it? October 5,6,7,8 or 12,13,14?

It looks like the 12-14 will be better for us as well.

We are thinking of going up this weekend, the weekend of the 29th and maybe a day trip Columbus day weekend if anyone is interested.

damn...you are definitely going to get your moneys worth out of a season pass!!

ps: I'll be at the campground this w/e

[mudgirl]

This sounds like fun..... Do you guys always do the MonkeyFest up at Kingdom Trails? I'd love to meet up with you all, but it's over a 7hr drive for me. I'm not sure I'm up for it these days.
