muddy trails, fun times & the plan for this weekend...

Hi everyone!

It finally looks as though the rain will be moving out of here (at least for a while). I know we have had kind of a depressing week for riding on the road, but we did get a chance to get into the woods and even though it was raining, the trails are in amazing shape and the riding was super fun.

Well, last night's ride at Earl's was no exception. We had a huge turnout with some old and new faces. We worked our way through the mud and water and ended up with a pretty awesome ride. Those trails are some of my favorite ones that I have ever been on & the fact that I got to get out there with an awesome group of people made it even better.

Here's the recap for the ride:

Now for some weekend plans. This Sunday, we are going to host our first longer group ride from the East Longmeadow shop. CEC ambassador, Steve Wallbridge, has put together a great 52 mile loop.

I posted the loop in the ROUTES section.

We are going to be meeting at the East Longmeadow shop at 8:30AM on Sunday and departing from the shop at 9AM sharp. Even though this will be a no drop ride, please make sure that you have looked at the route and know where we are going prior to the ride.

Also, since the shop will be closed when we leave, please make sure that you have enough tubes, water, food, etc. before you get to the shop Sunday morning.

Shoot me an email if anyone has any questions, otherwise I hope to see you all Sunday morning.
