Reenie, Tom and I rode out to Littleton on MBTA Fitchburg line from Waverly where Sally met us to begin the riding. The fare was $4 : only $0.45/hr riding for transportation costs !
Sally and Reenie enjoy the food stop at Ferns General Store at Carlisle rotary. We skipped Great Brook this time around, but there are some fun trails in there to include the next time.
Mtb Tom interacts with a local natives and for the most part was well received except in Burlington where we were yelled at by one super crazy old man and then made fun of by a group of 7-9 year boys on BMX bikes. After 8 hrs of riding, being threatened by some guy (who looked like he stepped out of Delieverance) who supposedly "took our pictures" and is "calling the cops" on our renegade griup of four just seemed overblown and ridiculous. We apologized and went on our way before any weapons came out of the truck !
Reenie and Tom relax for a minute before cleaning up and heading out to a party.
Not even a full day of riding can stop these two !!
thanks tom for leading us home !!

They look pretty fresh after an epic day of rolling on big tires...
Hi, as a racer i thought you and your readers would like to know about the the Mount Kenya 10 to 4 (10thousand feet to 4 thousand feet) http://www.10to4.org/
a race in Kenya to raise money for Mount Kenya and its diverse assembly of animal life. What a great experience. I hope that you and other american riders would consider competing some day. At one place the race was shortly held up by elephants!
One of the greatest bike experiences of my life. cheers,
