Who was this on the white bike? What kind of bike is that? It almost looks like one of the new Tomac's.
Same old same old at the Kingdom

Yupper! It's getting ridden in nicely...not sure if I like it better than Toady's Tour or not though.
well I hate the color - that's for sure!
but they were super comfy. I'm not sure how long the velcro will last though. The neoprene sleeves kept sliding down and scrunching the velcro - it was still comfy though.
just wanted to say thanks to all the monkeys (and non-monkeys) who were there for the weekend: some seriously sweet riding and great people. i will definitely be going back up there if i stay around the east coast!
on a seperate note, the bike worked out awesome...it was the rider that crapped the bed. soon, there will be dirt on that bike...i swear.
thanks again guys...and IAB, that pic of Dave and me; i look like i've just been punched in the balls

I have some. I may even let you drink some after we test the Dillinger.
A growler of Troutfest found its way home with me.
That's allright...he's just pissed because I was riding at the Kingdom while he was riding the keyboard eagerly awaiting our return to see exactly what he missed.It was johnnyru wasn't it?
Oh and BTW this is what I am enjoying right now...
Mmmm Indeed.mmmm. pics!
Seriously I have three things to say about this weekend...Great trails, great weather and excellent company. Treesaw, thanks for allowing us to join in the horseplay and tomfollery that is Monkeyfest and thanks for setting everything up including the excellent cuisine. Thanks to the regulars for making us feel welcome and for being friendly. I was looking for a couple of words to sum up the weekend and all I could come up with was "F#@% YEAH!".
Thanks again...I'll post the pictures and videos shortly.
indeed, and it was awesome, kind of like a mini sidewinder. i think i like tody's better though, it feels faster and more thrilling-er.
Getting ready to ride
Just a few last minute adjustments
View from the upper parking lot
More monkeys join the group
Stretching is a good idea but I am not exactly sure what Gary is doing
Last minute gear check...Andrew seems to be missing lube
I know what Phil is thinking about...flowy singletrack and beer
Nice view
More views from our balcony
Davis crossing a bridge on "Worth It"
Me pulling a wheelie off the end of the bridge on "Worth It"
Soft and loamy singletrack...mmmmm
Sugar shack and Fall foliage
I wish I had an office with a view like this
Davis at the top of "Kitchel"
I could sit down and listen to this all day, man was this peaceful

Awesome pics, one of these days I'll get there...
Way cool that you ran into Jeff from Milford Bikes - if Splat's FSR didn't make the trip, did anyone notice if my RFX did?

Indeed.
Looks like you guys had some great riding. Becky and I wanted to say thanks again for letting us join you all at dinner, we had a great time and she enjoyed meeting you all. I thought it was nice to see the regulars and some fresh faces as well.
No but we did laugh about it!
What, a sampler and 2 pints? That's only 5 pints ... or to put it another way: 2.5 pints for my Aussie half, and 2.5 pints for my British half.
Hardly anything.
*NOW* I'm getting belligerant! ;-)
Thanks to all the RideMonkey's for making it an awsome weekend.
TreeSaw - special big thanks to you for organising, cooking the best pancakes and bacon IN THE WORLD, and saving my bacon by letting me use your phone!
MBC - thanks for making the best dip IN THE WORLD.
You can see all my pics here. Group shots, random scenery and a couple of pics of individuals.

You guys really squeezed in a good weekend, as it looks like the trails are all currently closed!

Absolutely! It was great meeting you & riding (well, trying my hardest to keep up) with you. Hopefully we can all do it again!
Rain. I have reservations at the Village Inn on Friday so they better dry off quickly!
I received an e-mail that the trails are closed for the weekend!Rain. I have reservations at the Village Inn on Friday so they better dry off quickly!
From the e-mail: ALL TRAILS CLOSED FOR THE WEEKEND OF OCTOBER 13TH
With the recent poor weather and the forecast for this weekend calling for more rain and possibly snow, we are closing the trails for the weekend. We hope to open the trails later if the weather cooperates.
I put together the pictures everyone took as well as the video I took. Thanks to Phil and Dave for their photos. Enjoy!
You're welcome...glad you liked it.
That was awesome, John! I'm smiling ear to ear here.
Glad you liked it. If it wasn't for all you guys I'd have no material to work with...it's always a group effort. I just wish I had taken more video.
