@Justin, I just joined rideonenine, nice site but the content/info is very outdated.  I do not think anyone is posting anything there, lol.

I think the link for Delaware Trail Spinners is: http://www.trailspinners.org/index.html

I break for fires

could be interested

weather permitting, I could be game.  Debating between WC or Wiss.   I'll probably ride Wiss on tuesday, so I'm leaning towards WC. but if it rains....ugh....

Not sure what you are planning on, but I'm planning on 4-5 hours at a steady aerobic tempo.  if you are planning on something shorter, the company for part of the ride would be great.  Right now I am solo for tomorrow.

i usually start early so I'm not gone all day.  keeps my wife happy.  if you are starting later, perhaps we could meet up?

game day decision

hey parker,  white clay might be a rainout....i'm not sure how the locals feel about their trails being ridden on in the rain....i think there is a race @ fair hills, so i might check that out....

The last place you want to ride...

is WCC/MR when it's muddy.  Everything that makes that place great is awful if it's not near perfect.

Let's bicycle boogie!

Fairhill...

wouldn't be much better and since tomorrow is the first MASS XC there, they don't really want folks out pre-riding soft trails.  It's the MASS opener and is historically a very large race.

Maybe you'll get some recon from locals re: Wiss this morning.  We got a lot of rain but sometimes the trees can surprise us and drink it right up.  We'll see today.

White Clay sucks when it's

White Clay sucks when it's enen a little wet. Kills your momentum and that place is all about momentum, at least for me... Wiss will be great later this afternoon for sure...

Let the good times flow....
