Thats true. I lived in VT for 18 years so I know what there is to do in the state. Anyway it doesn't matter, we'll have fun. beer, riding, and food. Actually since it'll be Mark's birthday, why don't we do some Mark tipping?wooglin said:
I'm pretty good at tipping over without anyone's help actually.Crazy Sweeper said:
I've done it numerous times on a bicycle as well as IAB and MBC can attest to.

May 23rd is a Monday. Is this a evening and or night ride? 
Fack fack fack fack fack! :mumble:
Snake Mountain ate my left arm today - ulna's broken in two places. May or may not require metal.
In traditional form, rode down to get off the mountain.
So much for m'fest...

Yikes! Dare I ask for pics? Heal up fast 
Bummer! Heal up fast JBP!!! If riding is a no go, you can be the official "Burke Mountain Campground Cooler Inspector"!!!!
Heal Fast!
Thanks, folks.
Don't know about pix, Theresa, I can ask for a copy of the x-ray image... I'll see what happens tomorrow.
splat, there's not too much of a story I can tell, other than the terrain on the Snake being steep, rocky, and wet. I was on a steep fast descent and lost it - some of the crew thought I hit a tree; I have no idea, just got up with the now familiar sore arm and slightly numb hand.

Where'd you eat it on Snake?johnbryanpeters said:
I cracked a helmet up there once. Aired out off of a waterbar, hit the leaf-covered ground a bit sideways and went down immediately onto my face. Ahhhhh, I love that place.

Someplace in the Triple-X nest of trails. Left hand turn into a bunch of turning ledge drops, with a long final runout. Had the fork locked out (!) entering the section, Herbie hollered at me, I stopped in the middle, unlocked the fork and dropped into the final descent and lost it someplace in the runout. Armor would have helped this time, I think.JRogers said:
Hi All. I'm mostly a forum lurker...but being a N'Easter, and just returning from a nice 3 day w/end up at KT, I wanted to quickly share a tidbit or two.
Firstly, the trails, including The previously mentioned NEW trails are lookin' great! Luckily, We had a local take us around, and what a difference when you NEVER have to take a map out - just KEEP goin'! He linked up some real memorable rides.
Secondly, Dead Moose Alley get's to keep it's namesake AGAIN. Yes, another moose fell in the well this spring, let's just say that section of trail was "smelly".
And third...my wife LOVES this place, and it would be pretty easy to convince another visit. If I can figure out a way to get up for the 22nd, I'd love to join you guys/gals for a ride...if not this year, maybe next year.

Looks like you are healing up well!Snake RULES! MMMMM ALTER!
just thought I'd bump this to remind those that are going, and maybe start convincing some more to go.
Personally, I think it would be awesome if the monkeys totally took over the camp grounds that weekend.

Neglider sold his place, so most peeps will be at the campground, McGRP01 & I both have Friday off - I'd guess we'd get there by 1 or so, itching to ride
check the very 1st post in the thread - johnbry has some updated info there

With the number of lean-tos we have reserved, there should be room for anyone who wants to come.
We like to call it "the bean".TreeSaw said:You know it....and my ever-growing alien belly-pod
