splat

Nam I am
The cast today, was Me ,My Son peter , I Are Baboon, Quo_fan, Berkshire _rider and Joining us a little later Huck Queen and Smitty. it was a Nice Brisk day , was about 39 degrees when we started. wouldwarm up to about 47.

we stated out and IAB quickly found something to play on



This is a Little 2 step down. with a turn in the middle



or you could take the straight drop like IAB did



Here Iab coming off this little step up then drop. well IAB looped out , on landing, unfortutatly the crash photo didn't come out . On the plus side IAB was OK .



The huck Queen Flies off ofthe the frame twister.



Quo_fan.



IAB on a Downhill rock garden



HuckQueens turn



Berkshire Rider in trouple on the rickety pallettes .



Smitty showing how it should be done.



well we were going a Very different way , well off the beatne path . and we came upon a area where they are putting up some new Power towers , hey , it makes a great Tree ride !



OK so the first try did not enend well




Lets try and fisnish it right !



what the hell lets do it one last time



and Quo FAn said OK I'll do it too!



as I said we went way off the beaten path , over to the other side of rt 16



now down to Hopping brook.

and We called this Bridge NFW , We IAB just said OK and went!! And Price for failure is very High!!!



Berkshire rider starts but thinks better of it , (Note IAB is at the other end is is long )



I walk across and Quo says OK he'll try . he didn't make it but he also did not end up in the drink



then we went over to play in the motorcycle pit , only to find it had been plowed :(

so we headed home , and then we would have out first mechancial IAB Gets a flat ,



then on Home for beers and Burgers !

Different view of Berkshire Rider attempting this climb. Heh...everyone takes the pictures first, then goes to help. :D


Smitty makes it look too easy.


Yeah, this thing was about the most solid log ride you'll ever come across. :D Quo Fan had no problem with it.

Great ride today! I fell a couple times and managed to hurt my hand, but it's all good. :D Thanks as always for the tour, splat! I'm going to be sore tomorrow. I'm getting too old for this freeride stuff. :D

Post ride burger. Mmmmmm....burger and football....the bacon needs to be charred more.

Good pics everyone! Karl and I took a lot of video today on our ride. Mostly TNT and DLS. Hopefully I'll be able to transfer it to my PC and make something of it.

You guys wouldn't have be able to get seats at Doc's if the Pats were playing. That place is usually packed on Sundays!

We went to the Alamo after our ride.
