GVMC ride was fast, easy and mud and rut free compared to BCTR.
Not exactly sure how long the laps were but everybody I talked to was taking over and hour per!
Considering I live less than ½ a mile from the Gunpowder ride you guys are talking about, I am a little disappointed that no one stopped by to say “Hi”. But in light of your disdain for me and the fact that no one bothered to invite me I guess I will have to take you off my X-mas card list….
Dude, that works both ways you could have stopped by and said hello to us! Only a few of us made it. Jeff Nelson, me and BigBird (R&T members). R&T was invited by GVMC, so the invite wasn't forwarded. Besides, I am sure your wife wants a bunch of dirty, stinky dirt bike boys stopping by on a Sunday afternoon!

Didn’t know about it or I would have stopped by; maybe to say HI but at least to roost ya….
I need to make friends with Cass Lau the guy who owns that property. Its so crazy; I grew up riding there and over the adjoining dozens of farms before they one by one got sold off or shut down. Now I have to drive hours to go ride somewhere but I miss out on riding in my back yard….
You do have a good point about smelly dirt-biker scum coming to my house though; I guess you are back on my X-mas list.

You guys are going to hurt Big Birds feelings talking that way
How do I learn something (anything) about the R&T club (what do they have to offer) and the conditions of membership? I'm interested if this is a nice place to ride with my young boys or if it's fun riding and easy to get into/out of.

It was much work for moments of fun. Jay, you make it out? Me no like mud, or more like, me no like washing mud. Spent more time washing and bitching about washing on FB than I did driving to the event. So there's that.
Joe, your bike looks clean to me.
That's how bad my ride looked the year I went. I'll take rocks any day over mud like that. It's sad to, that place is only 10 min from home for me and for a good cause.
