My brother and I will be going on a Happy New Year, easy ride @ Otis out of the rte 151 lot.

Planning on hitting the trail at 9:45-10:00 am and riding for 2-3 hours.

This will be an easy paced x-country type ride with plenty of rest breaks. As always trailside vomiting will be optional.

Driving a silver/grey Subaru and riding a Blue Marin.

Happy New Year!!!

I think we can beat the weather. It's 7:30 am right now and it's cold but there is no snow falling yet.

Here is today's forecast. No precip til 4pm supposedly. (http://www.accuweather.com/us/ma/falmouth/02540/city-weather-forecast.asp?partner=accuweather&u=1&traveler=1)

Happy New Year.

We did manage to beat the weather....barely. After riding for from 10 to 11:45 it started to rain. But it was all good because we were all done anyway.

Here I am catching a little air:

The last shot is of Rocco Cavallaro, an old racing teammate and regular ride bud of mine back in the day. We sorta fell out of touch once I moved south, so this calls for an email and a link. Thanks for the shots!
