Perfect night for a ride. Bonus was bumping into a trail crew and being able to help out for a few hours. Ride back to the car was in the dark but I saw this rad moment with the moon over the hay fields. Blackstrap is riding phenomenal right now.

Ah that was you! Now I know your handle

Thanks again for helping dig!

So this is what I look like after 6hrs on an MTB:


Last Saturday, I rode “6hrs at Woodstock” a MTB race at Patapsco State Park…a bit outside of Baltimore. It was a 7ish mile loop in the Woodstock section of the park.

It was a tough course, but no too tough. I highly recommend this race…it was a lot of fun (and some agony) and I was TOTALLY drained when finished.

Also, if you find yourself in Baltimore or the D.C. area, you should def. check out the trails at this State Park.

Hey Stowe people, I am running catamount 50k this Saturday at Trapp family lodge, camping at smugglers notch State Park.
Turns out I am making the trip solo.
Anyone want to grab a beer and burger after the race at the Trapp place?
Or dinner Friday night?
I don't think I will be down to much activity Sunday. Maybe tubing or something chill

Glad to have the nice big cool Atlantic to ride next to.

Hot and humid in the Merrimack Valley. Trails have been surprisingly dry. Hopefully the rain up north isn't too bad.

Checking in on the Vermont Mags. Hope you all are safe. Link up any relief efforts you’ve heard of

Anyone here ever ridden the Rout Vert? I'm thinking Montreal to Quebec.
Camping ok? All paved? It looks super fun to ride for a few days eating poutine. The real stuff.

I’ve ridden sections from the border to Ste Jean Sur Richelieu over the Granby near sherbrooke, and down near Sutton. Closer to cities/towns it can be an actual bike path but in ritual areas it may be crushed limestone or gravel or just a route of roads. The map on your link shows the surfaces.

Selling my Canfield Nimble 9 hardtail if any local mags are interested. Size large, all steel, located in Barre/Montpelier area.

Thanks dood! I think we will credit card tour the petit train du nord from Montreal out and back.
We don't have the full bike packing setup for camping... Yet.

A nice loop past the swim spot for a skinny dip last evening felt nice

That was on our list of potentials for this summer but horror stories of Quebexican raccoons had Mrs P on edge so we diverted and are now planning riding around the Finger Lakes for a week next month.

Raçoons? What?

Raçoons? What?

Goniff and I were attacked in the Eastern Townships while camping on a bike tour earlier this month. Those trash pandas in Yamaska and Mont Orford National Parks are fearless!

Ah oui. Hôtel for us I think... Still planning. I have all the camping stuff just not a good way to attach it all to my bike.

That bike rules.

Hey NE thread! Been a while :/

Anyone got any suggestions they'd be willing to share re: Mt. Greylock trails? PM if better than post, but I'm dead curious to see what's going on down there and plan to check it out asap.

Rock- biggs

Thanks… I had Carl Strong in Bozeman build it for me. It’s pretty much a modern copy of my old Bridgestone XO-1 that I rode into the ground over the years. Same angles and dimensions but modern steel tubing and disc brakes. I salvaged the old head badge and moved it over to the new one…



Grant Petersen rules.

Glitchy TGR—I’ll be around MRV with my mountain bike tomorrow through at least Friday if anyone wants to ride.

How did we get to mid-August with only two pages in this thread.

Looking at a September stay at the Stable Inn in Rochester, VT. Does that put us in a good spot for a couple days of trail riding?

Another shitty weather summer. If it’s not raining it’s been 90 degrees and 100% humidity.

And yes, Rochester puts you in proximity to a bunch of good riding. Lots right around town and north and south on 100 as well. What type of riding are you interested in? I’m sure people can steer you to what you’d like. Doon at Green Mountain Bikes is a great resource as well.

[Glap]

Rochester is the center of the best riding in the state (imo). Lots of great teails in town, even more within a short drive. Also ways to comnect various trail systems if you want an epic day/days.

Looking for good singletrack, even an all day epic. The GF will ride pretty much anything at KT outside of Sidewinder, it just freaks her out.

[Glap]

Most of the on map stuff that I have ridden is super buff. Also some off the map stuff that is more old school and links up with new school flow. Lepesquer and daughters makes great trails.
