Northeast Monkeyfest 2005
- Thread starter johnbryanpeters
- Start date
I think the assumption is that this is the camping arrangement for this year.TreeSaw said:
NeGladeRider's yard would be awesome, but I feel like I am imposing if I ask...TreeSaw said:

true
but it will be so nice to take a shower this year! (and even nicer that the rest of you will be taking showers)

jdcamp & friends will be at the camp ground too / I'm not sure if he booked a site yet
That's how I feel. I have to talk to Echo and see if he wants to split a site at Burke Mtn. though. Waiting for him to reply to my PMI Are Baboon said:
Mark's camp was so much cooler than any campground could ever hope to be. The ride on the Kingdom Trails is awesome, but a big part of what made the previous two monkeyfests so cool was having the stunts and jumps and bonfire and tunes all right there, with no campground manager coming around telling us to pipe down.
I sent NeGladeRider an e-mail and a link to this thread, just to let him know that we're coming that weekend. No matter where people camp/stay, it'd would be very sh!tty of us not to extend him an invite to the festivities. Besides, he is a fellow NE monkey who rides.

Hell yeah, even he can't swing having us this year, he's on the permanent list of cool monkeys! It would be awesome to see his gang of crazies.
I have been updating the first page of this thread as a running summary...
Good job, JBP! Nice summary. 
You might be too tired to drink it if you pedal up from town.I Are Baboon said:
No such thing.berkshire_rider said:
I guess that means he's driving up. 
i'm still considering it myself (not sure if it's just me, me and the wife, or me w/ a friend, or if we'd just go for teh day or stayover. life is full of details to be worked out).
I don't blame you. The only thing worse than pedaling up to the campground from town, would be to continue up the toll road.
I don't blame him either. I get tired driving up that hill.berkshire_rider said:I don't blame you. The only thing worse than pedaling up to the campground from town, would be to continue up the toll road.
To top: 2,384 feet in 4.7 miles. Anybody up for trying it?BikeGeek said:I don't blame him either. I get tired driving up that hill.

Last year we rode to the Burke Camp from Monkeycamp. Even when you cut out two miles of climbing it's still a bitch.
The climb you mean? The climb in from town is pavement. The climb from NeGladeRider's house is gravel road, then singletrack, then pavement. Any way you look it, it sucks.wooglin said:Is this dirt or pavement? Either way it sounds
Stop by site #17 on your way back down for a beer, and let us know how it was. :evil:wooglin said:Excellent. Maybe I'll come up early and do it for a warm up.

With a little more planning, we could have cut a deal to rent the whole campground. 
Maybe next year.
Maybe next year.
Good idea JBP.johnbryanpeters said:With a little more planning, we could have cut a deal to rent the whole campground.
We should seriously check into the possibility of renting the whole place for the next time. :dancing:
Just a short climb to the trail head too. Wicked fun as a night ride....I Are Baboon said:
jdcamb, you going to be at the campground? What site?
I will probably be at the campground. My crew is backing out of the monkeyfest to go racing so I will be coming up alone.....jdcambjohnbryanpeters said:

The pain proposal is Echo's fault, might integrate it with the Lemming run Friday, might have to do it twice?
OK kids, Monkeycamp has offically been relocated to the Burke Mountain campground, so don't wait until the last minute to reserve a campsite or make arrangements to crash in a fellow member's site. Or, you could always book a room in a cozy, snug B&B like I did.
B&B's are for sissys that don't get drunk enough to pass out and sleep where they drop. :devil:I Are Baboon said:OK kids, Monkeycamp has offically been relocated to the Burke Mountain campground, so don't wait until the last minute to reserve a campsite or make arrangements to crash in a fellow member's site.
