I'd probably be down for it. Beth's flying in from CO tonight, so I'll see if she is too.
No, not this coming Saturday, the following, the date is the 29th of April.

I'm riding tomorrow if Beth is up to it.
I know you're upstate.

huh, you don't say...

Ninham is in Carmel. I found it through the Bikerag.com site. It has a LOT of tech stuff and is a pretty heavily wooded place. Been there a handful of times and have not failed to get lost. I'll try to dig up a link for it.

Have you ever hit up Blue Mtn?

All the time son! Its the best that Westchester has to offer and there is a Metro-North stop in Peekskill two miles away! Its really easy to get to from NYC.

I've only been there twice so far this season though. I turned my bikey into a SS and found that I couldn't hack it without a whole season of riding behind me!

Been concentrating on building some road miles since then... The eventual goal is to bust out an unsupported century to Bear Mtn and back to the East Village on my roadie/cx.

I would like to ride Blue Mtn this year.

Did you see the post for the Fat Tire Fest there?

I was down in Peekskill last weekend and it's not TO far for me.

Yah, they do that every year, I taco'd my right ankle at the fest last year:mad: . Blue is probably the only park in Westchester thats big enough and quality enough to do it in. They also have an annual race called the Chain Breaker later in the summer.

I love Blue, it has a lot of different parts to it. The only strange thing about it is that there is a shooting range on the far side of the park. You'll be riding along with these rounds going off in the background, sorta odd...

There is a good map for blue too. I'll find it for you in a sec, its very comprehensive

I could meet you there some weekend no problem!
Yah, that map is choice. I wish more parks had a map like that (yet at the same am glad they don't.)

Just watchout for the shooting range, leave the antlers at home.

there is a NYS police shooting range at the far end of Stewart. I never ride in that area though anyway so it doesn't really matter.

Next Sat. sounds good, Stosh. Rob and I don't have any plans and we want to ride a lot. I'll see if Kathy (who we were supposed to meet last time) is down for it and maybe throw up a post on MTBR if that's cool.

We should try Blue sometime. I know a few people who could show us around.

Dude, I'm going to PM you. Do you have any sweatshirts pre-made?

I may want you to bring some items with you.

How long can raw burgers stay frozen for? I have some that have been sitting in the freezer for at least a year and a half...
