Annual Greenwood Picnic 2010

Wow! I don't blog! HA- what a layoff from September.


Anywho the Annual Nittany MBA Greenwood ride and picnic is in the books. What a great day with awesome people! We rolled out and some up climbed the nasty Sassafras trail while the smart people climbed the fireroad to Pigpile. There we waited for the mentally challenged and discovered the guy who brought the dog, had already lost it. Pontzer went back to help Don find Aemon and gets double points for being helpful and alleviating the wrath of group upon the Princess. Pigpile rocked, Rodney flatted before the gasline then I did after the gasline - easy fix and jumped on tail of the group to hit not-so-flat-road.

From there we hit the typical coopers gap stuff and then headed back over the mountain. Kettle road is still steep but we actually bypassed it with Peep. That was steep but 'felt' shorter, you actually bounce out right before the overlook. After an awesome view of the valley we dropped Sass back to the picnic area.

Burgers, sides, adult beverages, ride recap. U know the story. Sweet day with a great group of folks!!!
