- Humidity: low

- Notes: a real nice (read "technical") 5 mile single track loop with all the typical New England "good stuff"

Tidbits: Local music sensation, Patrick McAloon, joined us for his first ride in many (more like many, many) years! He really did unexpectedly awesome, considering the nasty trails his Dad threw at him. T nailed the ride too (glad Pat was there as a buffer for OMMB ;) )

Happy Trails,
OMMB
