Default Rode Pittsfield, MA yesterday.. Couple pics

If you want to see the track we did, go to google maps and in the search bar put this address: http://www.cousinlarry.com/upload2/Pittsfield.kml

Then hit search. It'll lay our GPS track out. We went all over the place. Into Jimminy peak/Brodie Mtn.

Was pretty badass! Here's a few pics too. Tried out the panorama option on my phone..


If you look at the GPS track, these first two were taken on the Western border of Mass, right at that farm field. The pic doesn't do it justice. It was bright green and a nice valley.. It was awesome looking.




This pic is a ski slope at Jiminy peak - also seen on the track file:



And my buddy's bike hauler. We had five bikes in there and could have fit five more!!



Also, yesterday I took the worst fall of my short riding career so far.. Coming down a windy double-track trail, I was in 3rd gear flying because I was pretty sure the trail was going to stay the same.

Rounded a corner and came up on a HUGE flat boulder that had an angle going down the mountian. I don't even know what happened next but I got tossed over the handlebars and laanded on a big rock in the fetal position.

No one was around and I don't know how long I laid there. Busted up my side - thought I broke a rib or something. Also ****ed up my elbow and my leg right above my knee-guards. Managed to **** up my elbow through the elbwo pads. I know for a fact if I didn't have them on I would have shattered my elbow. It's pretty sore today but not broken.

Anyways, Got home and soaked in the tub. Then got a nice massage from the wifey with happy ending last night. And this morning I'm sore but I feel good

Thats some good riding up there, huh? I been in there on the ATV, its awesome.
Glad your OK, I took a good biff in Pachaug a few weeks ago. No idea what happen, just cruisin along and BAM, on the ground (actually in a swamp). I hate it when you dont know what happened.

Riding the Bershires is the best. I thought all the state parks were still closed because of the ice storm last december.

lcpl0331 - I think they opened up last week. There was a lot of work they did up in the Mountains.. lots of trees cut up and cleared from the trails. It was really good riding.

Xplosivo1 - Is "happy ending" really that graphic and personal that a woman would get mad if I said it? Not mine.. If she did got upset over something as stupid as that - she definitely wouldn't be my wife

No, but there's a couple trails that border a few slopes.
