Not to threadjack or anything, while we are on the subject I just thought Id let all you Bostonians know that the Patriots and Red Sox suck. :ninja:

Seriously though, that sounds pretty cool. I wish upstate NY didnt suck so much and had stuff to do.

I go hunting up there and it's nice but there's only so much of that you can take. I gotta say though, coyote hunting was the scariest thing I ever did. Those freaking eyes in the woods coming towards you 'cause they think you're food. Those mountains start closing in on ya after a while though. It's like, you're constantly either going up a mountain, or down a mountain. I'm not a fan of big cities either, but Boston, especially around Cambridge / Allston, has a nice vibe to it because of all the colleges. Usually a lot of people show up for this event, it's too bad you'll miss it.

Oh yeah, if anyone wants to go but doesn't have a bike I can probably scare one up (c:

Nice! I usually ride with Critical Mass, the last Friday of every month, 6PM at Trinity Church.

I've never ridden with them, but I got a chance to ride on of thier bikes the other day. The seat must have been about 5 feet off the ground, mounted on a 2x4 lashed to the frame which was turned upside down so the crank was high enough to reach. It was easy to ride but hard to get off lol.
