It’s looking more wet than ever for this Sunday now, so I’ll have to say that the ride is off at this point. Was hoping to do this at least once this year, but oh well.
Looking to ride the Links this Sunday from 2pm till 4pm. Tentative plan is to meet at the Frenchy’s in Coldbrook. Exit 14 on the 101, turn left at the lights and go straight until you see the Frenchy’s. We weill be there around 1:40pm. Leaving there just before 2pm, so BE THERE. Or, if you know how to get to the links, meet us there. Fun XC type of ride. Easy pace. Might see if Barry can guide us around as well. Let’s hope the weather cooperates!
The Links

Directions:Take Exit 14 off the 101 highway and travel through Coldbrook to the first set of traffic lights. Turn right onto Lovett Road and drive to the end. Turn left onto Brooklyn Street and right onto N. Bishop Road. Travel through the stop sign and continue along Woodville Road until you see Burgess Mountain Road on your right. Turn up Burgess Mountain Road and near the top of the unpaved road you will see the trail entrance on your left. Drive in and park at the designated parking area.
