fun Fridays ride 2018

[shrpshtr325]

alright shall we try this again for this weekend? dependant on what mother nature thinks of us. She currently seems undecided (typical?).

where would we like to go that is currently rideable (snow or no snow)?

 

[shrpshtr325]

so does anyone know of a rideable park after this, the most recent snow storm of spring 2018?

 

[Patrick]

i'm out of town tomorrow...good luck!

 

[shrpshtr325]

SOOO, things are starting to dry out, anyone want to make a suggestion on where we should visit next week? April 6?

bueler... bueller . . . bueller....

moab?

i'd like to get a guided tour of mooch north. i went on my own and ended up missing everything.
just remember rolling all the whale backs. much fun.

 

[shrpshtr325]

Moab sounds great, you flying us all out there for the day??


we can check with @ReggieHammond for a tour date now that everything is defrosting, i agree mooch would be nice.

i can fit 3 - but we'd have to rent. i'm also thinking the flight might take quite awhile at 160mph....

unfortunately,
The Runway at CNY is currently closed (through April 30, 2018).

looks like 1600 nautical miles - 14 hours flight time one way - two fuel stops.
assuming there isn't any real weather to deal with.

best to stay local.

I’m in for Moab. Sounds like @fidodie has it all figured out...

Can't we rent a jet?

 

[Soundguy]

I got $5 on it

 

[shrpshtr325]

I got $5 on it

ill throw another $5 in for it.

 

[Patrick]

yes, but you'll need to pay for a pilot - way above my pay grade. Figure $25k round trip. seats 6.

Well there goes that idea.

Well, since my TRU days are over, I've got Fridays free now (unless i have job interviews) 4/6 free so far so I can give tours of the following places: Ringwood, Jungle, High Mtn, Sourlands, 6MR, Chimney, LewMo, Dickerson Mine, Wildcat. Can also lead eastern PA rides if you want a destination.

4/6 ringwood would be sweet

Same here. What about a road trip? Actually I'm going to Utah this summer for track attack school - I know Moab is a haul from Salt Lake City but can't be that far. Is Moab brutal to ride in the summer? I have no idea

 

[shrpshtr325]

as long as ringwood has defrosted and we arent rutting up the mud that is a very viable option IMO

survey says?

Trails should be good by tomorrow, but I can't guarantee a clean ride without tree carnage.

Let me look at my travel schedule and see what works best. Keep ya posted.
