NERRB Summer of 2015 Events Thread!

[Danimal]

While at the Dudley show today, a few of us got to discussing possible rides and/or events this year. We thought it might be a good idea to start a thread where we can put ideas and also keep a list of dates that are already set. Let's see how it goes.

So far, these are the events with set dates that I know about:

April 19h - Freeze you but off in Northampton - Link Here: http://www.ratrodbikes.com/forum/in...off-3-northampton-ma-sunday-april-12th.89382/

May 31st - Live Free of Die Ride - Manchester, NH - Link Here: http://www.ratrodbikes.com/forum/in...e-”-ride-manchester-nh-sunday-may-31st.91698/


June 20th (Rain date June 21st) - Fitchburg Rides Event - Not a Rat Rod specific event, but a good time!

August 9th - August 15th - Week in Peaks Island - Link Here: http://www.ratrodbikes.com/forum/index.php?threads/nerrb-peaks-island-maine-ride.88638/

Now some ideas.

- Ride in Manchester, NH. Great city with a main drag that has tons of bars, pubs, and places to go. Plenty of parking.

- Ride in Boston, Mass. It's Boston, the idea speaks for itself but for some reason, it never seems to get off the ground.

- Our summer Northampton ride. This needs to happen.

- Ramblewild outdoor adventure park. Zip lines and running around in the woods. This idea is from Kimmy, but I'm all in on this one! No bikes required.

June 11-19 is motorcycle week in Laconia. I have ridden into this a few times and it's always good.

Thanks Dan, for starting this thread!

June 11-19 is motorcycle week in Laconia. I have ridden into this a few times and it's always good.

Let’s do this – in years past we’ve started a discussion on this idea, let’s apply it this year. Where would be the Meet-Up Place and Meet-Up Time?

 

[Walker]

If we want to ride in there are a bunch of places to start from. Better to meet on the Laconia side of things then we could also go down the road to the Train Station and have a burrito

The 2nd Annual Mrs. Murphy's Donuts Ride starting in Simsbury, CT up to Southwick, MA will occur one weekend in August. This is a 30 mile ride so an iron butt is a must!

 

[Danimal]

Walker, I can add the Laconia date to the top post and include a link to the thread when you start it.

I'm thinking this particular thread will be good to bounce ideas around before starting an individual thread for a ride. Once a ride is tentatively set, then I can add it to the top post. Does make sense to you guys? This will just give us a quick reference of all the rides/events we plan for this year.

 

[ZygoteLittle]

How do you guys feel about tentatively scheduling the Northampton Nightlife Ride for a Saturday night in June, say the 2nd or 3rd weekend?

 

[ZygoteLittle]

Now some ideas.

- Ride in Manchester, NH. Great city with a main drag that has tons of bars, pubs, and places to go. Plenty of parking.

How about if we tentatively schedule a ride for Sunday May, 17th?

Dan, can you spearhead the ride – we’ll work together on this, because you know where parking is and some of the sites for us to ride to.

 

[Stevil]

End of month, 31st better for me.
What say you all?...Stevil

 

[ZygoteLittle]

I'm alright with that, Steve.

Let’s try to have at least one ride per month.

 

[Danimal]

Yeah man, I'll check into some stuff.

 

[Walker]

Hmmmm, Manch is only an hour..

 

[ZygoteLittle]

Yeah man, I'll check into some stuff.

Cool!

 

[Danimal]

Updated the info on the Laconia ride. I'll let Walker start a thread with all the specifics since he is hosting this one.

 

[ZygoteLittle]

Anyone up for a Sunday Boston ride in the near/not too far distant future?

 

[BScubed]

A bit late but... I'm always up for a Boston/surrounding area ride!

 

[ZygoteLittle]

We talked about a Cape Cod Canal Ride for the fall (late September to late October - let me qualify this, it isn't going to be a month long ride on the canal)

We will meet in Bourne, MA, details to follow, let's start a conversation so that we can have a consensus on the date; Meet-Up Time will be 10AM

 

[Stevil]

This Summer seems like it will last til Nov.
