Good idea, an HDF ride would be pretty cool.
yeah... we could start it at the sterling dd.... and we could end it with a bbq in your backyard

Lmao ....
I ride thru ALL your Towns alot !
We do loops around the Wachuset Resivoir all the time by going thru Ayer, Harvard,
Clinton, Sterling and then of course stop in our favorite HD shop in Leominster.
The Wife also likes Dairy Queen ice cream and there is one in Clinton which is also a
good excuse to ride out that way.
We usually hit the Templeton area on our way back from a loop around the Quabbin Resivoir.
On our other loop out to Jaffery,NH we get close toTempleton. We ride out to Winchenton
on Rt.12 to Rt.202 North.
Rob ....
so... next time youre coming down to clinton dq or american, post it up so i can meet you guys for a spin.

so... hey...

as it turns out, tomorrow (saturday 17 May) is looking like its going to be pretty decent in the afternoon... steadier rain is supposed to end early morning with sporadic showers ending completely around 9:00am.

so... anyone interested in a cruise? say meet around 11:00am? ...sterling dunkin donuts on rte 12? ...or another meeting place suggestion?

how about a quabbin reservoir run? say... out on the south end.. 122, 32, 9? maybe then up 202 to 122? ...back on 62 to sterling?

about 100 miles i'd say... maybe a couple to a few hours? anyone interested?
