    Riding ‘Round Central Mass

    I promised pics from last weekend’s ride, so before we move on to this weekend’s fun, I thought it best to get those up here!

    We’re Off!

    …down the trails of the Coldbrook Snowmobile Club of Barre.  But not too far.  About 6 minutes into the ride (by Bill’s estimates :) ) I came around the corner and KNEW that was one of our hoods up in the air–ours as in, “this is going to cost me money.”

    Mike helped....

    And then we finally did manage to get off, with no other real incidents, save for Mike doing a number on my bumper!  Sorry, couldn’t resist.
