[splat]

Its that tije of year again , time for a night snow ride . it is not suppose to warm up between now and Thursday , so I'm sure there will still be snow on the ground.

PM me for directions , starting at my house.

the question is Studs or No studs ?

Bundle up boys, the lows are supposed to be in the teens. Sorry I'll miss it.

Count me in. Give us an update on the conditions as the ride approaches, splat. ;D

...I can already feel the pain in my thumbs of forcing the Nokians over the rims.

Where on the CT/MA Border? Thompsonvile, Webster area? Or farther west, like Brookfield/Stafford Springs?

Webster -> Milford should take you about 40 minutes, only because it's about 20 minutes from downton Webster to Uxbridge... and another 20 to get to 'Nam from downtown Uxbridge.

The drive from the CT/MA border where 84 crosses, to 'Nam, takes about 30 minutes.

Ooops, I spec'd driving back roads (Rt 16).

84 (@ CT) -> I-90 is about 4 miles. I-90 -> 495 is 24 miles (9 miles to 290, 5 miles to 122, 10 miles to 495), 495 -> Rt 85 is 7 miles, then 1 mile up the road to 'Nam.
