I went there one year, it was a lot of fun. I wish I knew Lynn better though, it just seemed like an enormous rock garden when I was there but I have seen pictures of some cool stuff. I'll be up there if I can.

i plan on going. i haven't ridden Lynn woods yet and don't know my way around the place. i'll get with one of the guided rides and see what it's all about.

I'll wear mine but I don't think anyone else I know that is going has one.

Great time at the D-Day festival put on by Diesel Bikes. All the proceesds went to improving the park.

The ride that Pete led was a fun group of over 20! There were 17 from BVNEMBA. The 60-90 minute ride was more like 2-3 hours! I ducked out early because I got two flats and had to borrow a tube. I was also hungry for lunch and wanted to try out the demo bikes.

After a nice meatball sub and some free drinks and snacks from Odwalla, I hopped on an Intense Tracer. Nice bike. It is definitely staying toward the top of my list for possible replacements for my bike when the time comes.

Then John and Eammon won the tire toss game and got some sweet prizes. Then we watched the the high jump and the trials show.

Great event! I am already looking forward to next year!

Here are pics.

Here is a short video.
