Too early to start thinking about dates?
I'm going to start by proposing 9/15 or 9/16 this year.

I was just up there today with Keith, and it is in amazing shape. They have done a ton of work on a lot of trails, including Tap & Die and Kitchel, all for the better. Also rode some new stuff over on the western side.

Personally I think this date is a little close to the LAMB ride for me. I would really like to see at least 2 weeks inbetween. I'd love more time but I know that starts to get too close to the Challenge.

Leaves can become a nuisence later in September also, we learned that a couple years ago.

I think the leaves will be a week later this year with all of the rain we've had early this summer. We could probably push it back a week and be safe.

9/22 is officially locked in then, guess I should ask my boss if I can get the day off.
I have van and trailer, can transport 6 folks and their gear. Would like to depart by 7:00 am if that is possible for everyone. The trip is about 2 hours, this would get us on the bikes by 9:30. Remember your $10 for a trail pass. We will meet at the Newport rec. unless the rec. director has objections.
Focus will be on the Darling Hill side of things this year. Hit all the standards and hope to try a couple new to us trails.
Post ride food. There is a store in the village that makes great sandwiches or you can pack your own grub.

I'm in also...so I guess you can have the day off Brian.
PJ - don't work too hard on getting in shape, I need someone to hang out with at the back of the pack.

I'll be meeting you guys at the Grantham Dunkin Doughnuts around 7:20 - I have to be back by around 4:30pm so I can get my kids, so I'm going to drive myself.
Dan - I understand from Brian you might be doing the same thing to make sure you get back early enough. Let me know if your schedule matches mine and we could always car-pool separate.
