I can't edit my date on the original thread title. We are going on the 13th actually.
I linked to the starter thread here. October 12th Vermont/ Mohawk Trail Ride
Sorry about that.

Ray, I sent you a PM if you were thinking Gumb-ALS and misposted here. Eitherway, they both are good times, and hope that you can make both.

And now, another option where we could drop down route 8 and run down the Mohawk Trail back to Greenfield, Mass after lunch. This could be option B. What are your votes? MapQuest Maps - Driving Directions - Map

I'm for option B. If it turns out to be a bright sunny day it will keep the sun behind us most of the time.

Looks like we're in for option B. That will be the plan.

Gang, given our current circumstances, (surgery next week) I am looking for a sub to lead the troops on the run this year. Any takers? Let me know and I will contact Adam at the Saloon for the scheduling.

Steve,
Tiffany and I love the run and all the folks that attend but it would just not be the same this year. We are going to hold until the both of you are once again ready to lead the pack. You will both be in our thoughts and prayers over the course of the next several weeks.

I talked with Steve early this week, if we give him a head count he will make reservations for us at the Saloon restaurant. So my thought is based on previous years:
We do the loop "Plan B" and take a lot of pics for Steve and Theresa If we can't post them, then drop 'em on a memory stick.
1) CT guys meet at Red Robin in Enfield at 9am
2) Pick up me and West.MA guys at the rest stop past exit 17 on I-91N about 9:20am (that just sounds creepy)
3) Meet the Eastern MA group across from the Irving Gas station in Greenfield at 10am
4) Leave the parking lot a 10:30 to get to the Saloon for 11:30. Last year it got busy just after we got there.
but Vintage Motorsports out of Connecticut is organizing a simular ride starting in New Haven up through northern areas of CT on Saturday then a south route on Sunday...if there are not enough participants for this ride maybe join in on the other ..they are arranging hotel rooms and a party etc...details are on Club _obra
Put me down for 4. We may have another vehical coming along.
