Quick update for those going: I won't have a final "cost" until next week when the groceries are purchased but I will be planning the menu according to the best priced items when I shop. I am thinking we'll deep fry a turkey again this year (or 2 lol) since that seems to be a big hit and isn't expensive.

ARE THERE ANY FOOD ALLERGIES THAT I NEED TO BE AWARE OF? I am pretty sure that I know everyone who is coming, but I thought I would just check. I'll keep you all posted! WOOT WOOT!

I'm allergic to lobster so I'll pass on the surf and turf dinner that I'm sure you're planning.

that might be an option. I can't afford to take thursday but I may take a half day friday to get up to burke for the evening ride. I was also considering making a stop on the way, either at highland or atttitash, to ride all day friday before arriving in the evening.

What's the bike capacity? Can you fit two more?

Living the dream.
I know this goes against the normal protocol, but I have a busted ankle and won't be able to climb the ladders. I'm calling dibs on a bottom bunk in the larger bedroom.

No onions for me please.


Crombie and I will be heading up early Friday morning so we'll most likely roll in around 2-3pm or so. We'll be heading home on Sunday sometime after lunch time.

Yeah, we can fit 2 more bikes. I'm not sure how much fun BadDNA would have sitting around while downhilling all day Friday, so we wouldn't be up for that. If you just want to go straight up to KT Friday, though, let me know and we'll get our schedules coordinated.

Apre Millstone, maybe we could grab a picnic lunch and head up to Hill Farmstead Brewery. They have a bottle release happening that day. Open till 5:00. Positive Pie looks like a good place with a great beer selection and is along the route to KT. We could also head up to Monpeilier and hit the Three Penny Taproom.

Well then, it may just have to Millstone on Thursday. Where's the local brewery for the after-ride? Pine Hill on Sunday? I love that place.

This sounds great to me. I can't wait to finally ride Millstone. I've been drooling over photos for years now.

The Alchemist brewery is limiting purchases to a four pack, and it's only available a couple of days a week. I'm going to try to get some Wednesday, not sure how much I can score, max would be one case. Sometimes I get none.
