Just an FYI.... last H2H race is 7/9.

I'll be sure to make it worth while for those driving some distance.

We talkin' reach-arounds or a trip over to Mooch? Asking for a friend.

I also may be in for 7/9 if it's not reach-arounds.

You'll definitely get both. I think, probably.

Marla Singer gave Ed Norton's character a good reach around in that movie...

I was thinking Stephens as it has a bit of everything for all riders. A bit of rocky goodness with some climbing and tons of flow. If the general consensus is for a Mooch loop.....then I'm game. If not, we can always schedule another day for some Mooch fun.

Just an FYI.... last H2H race is 7/9.

I'm not married to that weekend....just was throwing out a weekend that was sooner than later. Before we know it, @rlb & @fidodie will be building spreadsheets and analyzing rules for next year's BIYF contest.

That being said, we can push this to the weekend of 7/15 & 7/16.

7/16 is Stewart 45.... like I said, just an FYI.... and don't forget Jay's 31 for 31!!!!!

this will all depend on kid baseball for me. hopefully i can make it.

 

[Norm]

Well I am glad this rose to the top for reasons other than what I had feared. Carry on reaching around.

So BIYF starts in July this year?

 

[Reggie]

Let’s put this to paper and put a BIYF ride together.

Location: Stephens State Park
Date: Saturday, July 8th (Didn’t want to conflict with Sunday’s H2H Race in Port Jervis….those are some very fun trails up there).
Time: 8:45am (wheels down by 9am)
Parking: Sussex Branch Parking Lot off Waterloo Road & Continental Drive (40.921007, -74.738332)
Distance: 12 – 15 Miles
Pace: Intermediate

Stephens is a ton of fun with some climbing, some rocky sections, and lots of buttery smooth single track.

For those interested, there may be a post ride visit to a local watering hole with VERY tasty beers on tap in addition to their food. Never had a bad meal yet.
