Father's Day Frolic

  • Place: Lynn Woods
  • Trailhead: Pennybrook Rd park lot
  • Riders with OMMB: Greg, Chris
  • Miles: 9.3
  • Weather: perfectly cool
  • Technical Level: We stuck to mostly double track, with a side hike-a-bike adventure to Weetamoo Cliff
  • GPS Track:


Notes: FINALLY made it up to Sadie and Greg's area to check out some trails.  Been eyeing up several areas around Beverly and Gloucester.  Father's Day provided a great reason to visit Sadie and get a ride in with Greg and his dad Chris.  Got quite a few miles in, due to a lot of double track routes, but the hills were still killer.  Great scenery, nice overlooks.  We (well I guess "me") wanted to see what Weetamoo Cliff was all about...since I also ride Weetamoo Woods in RI.  Getting to the cliff required some hiking, but we saw some real technical stuff up there, indicated by tire tracks.  Funny thing, we actually lost track of where we left the stupid bikes, and had to hike around with the GPS looking for them. hahaha.  All the terrain looked the same...no really, it did.  Good time. 

Tidbits:
1. Chris may be hooked...a bike upgrade is on his mind!
2. Weetamoo and her brother-in-law, Metacomet are credited with starting the King Philip War.


A VERY Happy Father's Day!!!


And the slide show...






Happy Trails,
OMMB
