Hmmmm. Weekly night ride. :sneaky:

I was thinking saturdays ( earlyish ) ........but that could be fun too (plus maybe I'd be less pokey for my night laps at 24's if I rode at night more than once a year)


But, I thought yukon would be too much of a haul for you for a weekday (evening or night) ride??

The YOkun ride is up and down the ridge you see when you first enter Massachussets on I90. There are trailheads up by the Olivia's lookout above Tanglewood, off of Resivoir road, or from the Acadian Shop on Rte. 20.

Here's a map
All right, I know where it is now. Thanks Steve...I'm in for whenever the snow melts!! :)

It's actually not too bad. Little over an hour, maybe an hour and 15 minutes, tops. Once the clocks change and it's light out later, we could easily get in a 2 hour weeknight ride there without lights. I could easily be there by 6:00pm during the week. :)
