Northeast Monkeyfest v4.0: 21-23 July 2006
- Thread starter johnbryanpeters
- Start date
I'm in.
Yeah but does that place allow the same high levels of drunken absurdity that you can get at a campsite...not to mention the fantastic mix of alcohol and open flames that should occur on a campsite?
we could always just mutiny and take over the condo. yarrrr......GumbaFish said:Yeah but does that place allow the same high levels of drunken absurdity that you can get at a campsite...not to mention the fantastic mix of alcohol and open flames that should occur on a campsite?
Hard to find decent (any) Birch Beer anymore....narlus said:
That lodge looks hella tight. I'm so down for that.

Not sure about the open flames, but I think we can manage the drunken absurdity 
Ok...I am working with the lodge guy on price and getting lots of questions answered. If anyone has specific questions let me know and I will post up answers.

Hosmer Mountain Birch Beer from Willimantic, CT - damned good stuff!berkshire_rider said:
Outside fireplace / firepit to drink around in the evening?TreeSaw said:
I'm starting to work out summer plans and would be interested in joining the festivities. I'd be up for the lodge as well. Should know for sure in a couple days.
brungeman - you guys from Steeltown would probably be heading up 79 to 90 I'd guess. If you cut it off and take 17/86 across NY, you could crash at my place before heading on to the Monkeyfest. Just offering that up as an option even if I can't fit the trip in myself.

that is a great offer... are you over by Ellicotteville? (sp) My sister is living over in Endwell NY but I would probably rather stay with youMike B. said:
that is a great option though... thanks for the offer... I love 17/86 since they made it wider and detoured it around all the little towns etc.
I'm east of Ellicottville, right between Corning and Elmira.brungeman said:that is a great offer... are you over by Ellicotteville? (sp) My sister is living over in Endwell NY but I would probably rather stay with you

gotcha... I vaguely remember when 17 went through Corning as a divided road? separated by a city block? and the McD's that was there briged both blocks? It was sooo long ago but for some reason I think I am remembering it like that!Mike B. said:
Any VA people going up?

Not sure...I will check and see. He quoted me a price of $800 for the weekend and asked if that was do-able.berkshire_rider said:Outside fireplace / firepit to drink around in the evening?
The lean-to sites at the campground are $20/day, so I don't see why this wouldn't be do-able. Hell, I'll kick in more if it guarantees me a bed and first dibs on a shower.TreeSaw said:
Even if we got ten people that were willing to pay $40, it would be cheaper than that fancy-schmancy place MMcG & Babs like to stay at.
Bah who needs a bed, I just need a surface to sleep on that isn't wet. By the way what kind of trails are there anyways, I'd imagine pretty much like xc singletrack with nothing too techincal.
I may be able to make it..not sure....possible car pool?BikeGeek said:Yo.
I'm in.
Sure. I'm pretty sure I can get 3 bikes on the roof (unless I get longer bars before MF, then I'd have room for 4). Peter has first refusal on a seat since I offered one to him a while back, but I still have room for another bike.sirknight6 said:

Bingo! Nothing too technical, but SO much flowGumbaFish said:
I've heard rumors there may also be a freeride trail down from the top of Burke Mountain. Maybe call East Burke Sports and see what they may know.

Thanks for all the leg work T!!
shoot I may need to go just so I can meet Echo
I cracked the fermenter last evening to take a gravity reading (measures progress of fermentation) and had a taste. I think it's safe to say that this is coming north with me.

There's another one that may be coming along, but I want to be sure it's not assy before telling everyone it's coming along.
Let me know when it's confirmed. I had allready reserved a lean-to at the campground, but didn't want to cancel without this lined up.TreeSaw said:Just about. I'm waiting for confirmation from about 2 more people but I will be booking it today
