First Group MTB Ride of the Year

Well we managed to do it. We actually got out for the first group trail ride of the year. Weather conditions were great mild temps and slightly overcast, no chance for Jay's alter ego to make an appearance, but neither did Jay (so we thought).

CRC battled through the sludgy jungles of Black Oak realizing that the conditions and the E.P.O enhanced mosquitos made for a relatively unpleasant trek. After a brief encounter with a skunk (no, not Dave), we made it to Malden where we were pleasently surprised to find Jay who after running over a turtle along Malden road joined us on the trails of Mount Malden. We did a short one lap ride and headed home for some bevies. Possibly a new addition to the CRC riders, Chris Masse joined us for the after party and will make his debut if not on a upcoming Wednesday, on the Boyne trip.

Boyne trip July 15-17. Those confirmed (Mark, Matt, Jay, Liam, a very accomodating Jeremy, Chris Masse, Dave). Anyone else planning on coming please let Mark or I know so we can book a condo. The concensus is that golf will be part of our trip this year. I will borrow some clubs and join you guys.
