We won't be lodging with you all, but we'll be there for as much of the fun as we can.
2023 Summer Monkeyfest
- Thread starter ICEBALL585
- Start date
Yeah, there were three or four of us who planned these original east coast monkeyfests, and we planned it via PM because we knew there'd be no way everyone would agree on anything. So, we picked a date and place, made the announcement, and rolled with it. It certainly helps with attendance that we have a lot of monkeys here in the northeast.
All that being said, I will be unable to make July 13-17. Have fun, friends!
So what was the first? Burke Mountain Campground in (?) 2002?
2003 at negladetider's house that has since been absorbed back into nature.
So what was the year that we stayed at the campground?
probably yes, will chat with the family and see if MonkeyFest and then Flow a couple weeks later is going to work.
if I show up, I will bring ice cream.

That was 2005. I was pregnant with Syd at the time! We camped at NEGladeriders 2003 & 2004 then the campground and then the Lodge.
bumpity bump!
My odds of attending this year are increasing weekly (as the snow continues to pile up) and bolstered by recently unearthed mystery airline pesos that would expire in December if unused.
In other words, FREE MONEY to drink beer and ride bikes...

I broke that Ellsworth Truth frame about a week later at Rothrock SP PA. Deyv kicked our asses up and down Burke Mountain that day.
Might want to remove that confirmation # before I change it to a flight to Lubbock, TXETA: I have but a scant 24 hours to regret / cancel this very wise decision with no penalty
Point taken, though I think you need my last name to do any real damage
Too it's a super cheap restricted fare so you'll have to spend some of your own hard earned pesos on change fees.
I think @TreeSaw / hubby "should" be able to cover my bike needs, but throwing it out there just in case someone else has an N+1 loaner bike kicking around for KT.
I am (less) fat, slow and very fond of walking my bike, and I tend to avoid the gnar so generally speaking light on my wheel sets
Will trade for MT Rye
A pistol hot, cup of rhyme...
The whiskey is water, the water iswine RYE

Happy Dance!!!!!
If TreeSaw and Earl aren't able to cover you, I should have a spare bike or two and I'm also local to KT so it's easy enough to let me know on short notice.Point taken, though I think you need my last name to do any real damage

hmmm... MonkeyFest you say...
Don't tease us like this!
I need to make a real, concerted effort to get back into shape (rather than just talking about it while I stuff my mouth with mini eggs and yell at Netflix that, YES... I AM STILL WATCHING) before I commit to anything.
Screw that...round is a shape (I'm very familiar with that shape in particular) and there are groups riding at all paces and abilities.
I just spent 10 days eating and drinking my way around the Mediterranean...there will be a pace for you
(also, I still watch Netflix)
[Mark & I are starting the search for dog-sitters as we speak! Looking forward to spending 24/7 with you jokers this time around!
You could have stayed with us....there are separate rooms at this lodge.Lodging booked, Thursday to Sunday.
Is Monkeyfest seriously a little over 3 weeks away?!?!? I guess it's time to do more riding and try to get back in shape lol
