I would be glad to join you, but I have a few problems:
My rear shock bit the dust at 9 PM Saturday prior to the VT 50, so I was without Bike 1 for the ride/race. I rode Bike 2 (10 PM decision) and wrecked the front shock and spent the brakes...but I finished! So, I am current bikeless. I will work on this issue and get back to you! Maybe I can run behind you guys as in the VT 50.
Soccer (kido's) schedule could also be an issue (10 AM and 3 PM games). And a minor shoulder injury from Sunday...Ah!
Thanks!
Brian (sunapee)
When in doubt, ride

I'll be coming into Cornish from Claremont on 12A. Would need directions please.

Sunday is good for this Brian. Tour guide will be a big help, especially with the leaves trying to hide the trails.

sweet! Now we need Ryan or Nathan to step up and act like a tour guide. If not we can figure it out, but those 2 know the woods the best.
Javy, did you happen to go by me lying in heap cramped up at the 50. Some of those soft green grasses were so comfortable, I almost fell asleep.
Cornish Town office has a map, I think.
Directions forthcoming.

Sunday's good for me, too, but I'll have to pick up my kids in Claremont on the way home so I'm not good as a bike/people hauler.
I'm definitely not the tour guide, unless you have helicopter rescue plans.

I believe Paddy Hollow is the road we will be looking for Sunday. It is located at the west end of Thrasher road.

PADDY HOLLOW Rd is suppost to be the main lot however I have never ridden from it. The Road to Paddy Hollow is located across the road heading to I-93 exit 8 from the road to Cycle Depot. Look it up on a map. FYI I did drive up in there once to try and find that lot and got to a spot on Paddy Hollow where there is a big sign saying private drive, it's my belief that you have to go down to the end of the road that says private drive, but I have not done so.
The Red trail is a classic that takes you up to the Lookout and eventually if you stay on the Red trail it will take you to the Blue Trail which is another classic.

Sorry, boys, I'm bailing. It isn't the best day for a ride, and I have a construction project to finish.
Nice climb up Sunapee, Polka Dot Man!

The wimps have spoken: Radar looks too wet for a trip around Cornish, Newport boys are heading into the familiar terrain of the Pinnacle to ride, scout, or run home if it downpours.
Sorry B.
