My new boss approved my leave requests so on Monday May 16th I'll be in court getting divorced and then on Friday, May 20th I'll be riding with friends for the what douglas has named the MMcG Freedom Ride!

11:00 a.m. - Case Mountain, Manchester, CT

Any Monkey who wants to join in is more than welcome! I'm sure there will be beer flowing and burgers grilling somewhere later in the day.

Oh yeah and it looks like we'll be riding Soapstone Mountain on May 21st - so if you want to make a weekend of it, by all means do!!!

This is a thinly veiled way of saying congrats, right?

We were counting on you to join us on Friday Tony! We need you to show us the goods. Although I'm on Doctor's orders for no crazy stuff while out on the trails (not that I can do anything crazy at my skill level anyway).

What kind of riding is involved, i dont feel like being humiliated by 40 year old dudes because i am terrible at XC.

Case is in Manchester, CT - like it says in my first post in this thread.

How old are you Mack? You live in CT, ride and don't know about Case yet? :think:

MMCG... What kind of riding is there... I am moving to Avon next year and am looking for some riding... DH prefferable... (sorry for the hijack)
There really isn't any true DH in the state of CT, but you won't be too far from Jiminy Peak.

Lots of great trails nearby where you'll be going to school though including Nepaug, Nassahegon, W. Hartford Reservoir etc. etc.

There's also a little skate park and some dirtjumps in Canton, CT

Here's to your freedom.

No, leave it on. And keep us posted about the 21st. :)

Hopefully Splat will join us for both Case and Soapstone. He is our official photographer. :D
