I can do any day but Sunday.

I was last to leave yesterday and the creeping dusk was reminding me of last year hanging out in the parking area until well after the sun started to set. Sublime.

I'm looking at Monday the 24th to go back to Greenridge. As long as weather is halfway decent.
I technically could do some Fridays, but it would be a little rough working the night before. Perhaps, if someone in Middletown could also go and drive, (so I could sleep on the way there and back).

I wish I could. My new tires will be in Wed and I'd be ready! Unfortunately, I have to take my wife to a medical appointment in the afternoon. :(

Looks like a good time. I managed a couple of trips on the local back roads :boohoo: I ride what I can when I can.

Ken...are your current/old tires GP110's? I run those, like them a lot, actually had them on at GR last year. I guess any bald tire is bad.
What new tires you going with?

Yup - IRC GP-110s. They are okay on gravel and pavement. I'm installing a set of IRC GP-1s. Am debating a spare set of rims with knobbies but most likely will buy a real dirt oriented bike (used) end of the year if I live :lol8:

I'm with ya. I stuck a K270 on last fall, I'll take it off in a month or so. I mostly commute, and the 110s are great, K270 is great off road, but real squirrelly on pavement.

I have to buy my son another bike, before I can get one. A nice smaller, lighter off road bike would be great. Almost anything is smaller and lighter than a KLR :lol8:
