Hey, what would the interest be in an epic ride in the near future? I'm thinking about resurrecting the B.A.D.A.S.S. ride. For those that never did it in the past, the ride was an offroad metric century.
I'm thinking that it would be really cool to make it a full century. We could easily get the trails linked up to get us 100 miles. Any interest in an all day epic?

that is the dumbest thing I have ever heard......... I'm interested
if you could do a moving average of 8.5 mph it would take a shade under 12 hours. Start at 7 am, finish at 8:30 or so (with stops etc). Go directly to hospital for IV. Sounds good.

Good deal. We should start looking at maps and linking the goods. The local loop has netted us 65 miles in the past so we'd need to open it a bit. I know the stuff is there and PK knows at least some of it. We'd need to push through Acton to Littleton but from there I'm lost.

There's a 50 miler in CT, that I've been meaning to organize. I'm definitely interested with what you guys organize.

a couple of miles of road and we can link Acton to the Stow trails. I'll see what I can map out on my GPS software.
