    ADV Duck Hunt on the Trans Mass Trail

    Bwahahahaha! Too funny, especially the "Ask me how I know" part!! This rant was just an exercise for me to remain conscious.. I **** you not when I say that since my good nights sleep since Sunday, I got two hours Monday, three hours Tuesday, and the clock is whittling down for me now before I...

    ADV Duck Hunt on the Trans Mass Trail

    Fred, the funny thing is I don't feel you hijacked the thread at all... I see it as the natural evolution of dialogue that flows from one idea to another. If something (Dave's discussion of riding off-road)sparks an idea or a thought process (my idea for a dual sport ride), then to discuss it as...

    ADV Duck Hunt on the Trans Mass Trail

    Part 2: At the overpass of the Mass Pike, we discussed the current location of the Dirty Duck for the ADV Duck Hunt. Apparently, Bill knew the general whereabouts of the context clue in the photos and we went straight to it, easy peasy. :) Ducky was definitely dehydrated and in dire need of a...

    ADV Duck Hunt on the Trans Mass Trail

    Bill, I didn't see it, but then again no one bothered to point it out before we left! :P I did see some areas that I did sorta scratch my head and wonder... Willie- would love to get a small band of fjrforumites together to do some off/backroad excursions. Go ahead, I'm sure she won't mind...

    ADV Duck Hunt on the Trans Mass Trail

    So, after unwittingly hijacking a thread from Dave (much apologies amigo!), a ride was put together to satisfy the dirt(y) itch of a few folks here in the Northeast. As it turned out, the ride was also part of a Duck Hunt from ADVrider.com. :) As with many rides when one is trying to remember...

    Trans Mass Trail dirty ride Sunday 24 July

    Bill, Email sent containing link to Photobucket so that you can share with our two-wheeled nuts over on ADV ;) I'll be making a ride report here soon, trying to balance two-wheeled adventures and keyboard shenanigans with homelife! :lol: Lets just say to everyone who was not able to make...

    Trans Mass Trail dirty ride Sunday 24 July

    Bill, Email sent. Will I be able to post pictures if I'm not a user on ADV? I could always just register, but "I'm not worthy! I'm not worthy!...." :rolleyes: Thanks again for an absolutely AWESOME ride! It was a blast. I will get you the pictures this evening and try to create a reasonable...

    Trans Mass Trail dirty ride Sunday 24 July

    Excellent! Do you have this file saved at all in google maps? Mapsource or a .gpx .gdb file won't help me as I have a Mac and it doesn't convert :angry: . I could look at the Google map at work, too! :lol: If not, no worries. I'm bringing the zumo, but will be packed away so I plan to make...

    Trans Mass Trail dirty ride Sunday 24 July

    George- enjoy your time and try not to slip on a slippery rock and go over the falls, mmmkay? ;) Bill- How are we getting through the chain barrier? My jumping skills are net yet fully developed to make a leap of that magnitude! :lol: I rode the bike in to work, it's all loaded and ready...

    Trans Mass Trail dirty ride Sunday 24 July

    Ok, it's cooler now.... :P High of 83 and sunny on Sunday sounds perfect!! Come get your KLX dirty and show me how a trials rider does it ;) I plan on being there for sure. I'm working overnight again tonight and tomorrow. If for whatever reason I can't make it, I'll post up here. See ya...

    Trans Mass Trail dirty ride Sunday 24 July

    Hopefully, but not betting on it. But, OTOH, low 80's and dry is way better after these past couple of days in the mid 90's and humid. I even found it bearable in gear today as long as I kept moving. Bill, being that I may have the smallest fuel capacity, will there be a planned fuel stop prior...

    Breakfast Club meeting Fri 7/22 8AM?

    Just so you can't say you weren't warned- it was still 81 degress last night at 11 when I got to work last night! Very muggy and gross. :dribble: As for the Gathering of the Clams, I think that'd be a good run! Good idea Carl!

    Breakfast Club meeting Fri 7/22 8AM?

    You guys enjoy, I'll catch up with ya later. I'll be swarmed by about 60 campers and trying to keep them hydrated and cool. This farkle money gig BETTER be worth the added aggravation and worsened sleep deprivation! :dribble:

    Need routing suggestions/info

    Thanks, guys! I actually have mapped out (so far) a route that is a beeline down 395 to get to 108, then head west until 120 and go east back to 395. I initially looked at 431 to see Lake Tahoe, but too much time if I were to do the 108/120 loop, hence I cut out 431. Would 431 be a better...

    I Fall Down and Go Bump in the Woods

    Aha! Well done! I'm a newb to the off-road world and for whatever reason I decided to pick it up last year at 39(what was I thinking?). Trying to learn and absorb as much (useful) knowledge I can to get my skills up to par. I'm jealous of those who've been riding off-road since they were kids, I...
