Morrisville Overnight Ride

Members of the Ridge Runners went on an overnight ride to Morrisville this weekend. We left from Kenyon's on Saturday morning and were treated to 10" of fresh powder on top of a nicely groomed base. The group rode over to Northfield and then through Williamstown, Barre, and Plainfield eventually stopping for lunch and gas in Hardwick. After a quick meal, we rode over Lake Elmore ending up in Morrisville with 110 miles on the trip odometer for the day. We enjoyed drinks and dinner at the Charlmont Restaurant and an overnight stay at the Sunset Motor Inn.

On Sunday morning we awoke to another 6" of fresh snow and headed west on the Lamoille Valley Rail Trail rail trail Johnson stopping in Jeffersonville for gas. We continued west until reaching Essex where we then turned south through Underhill, Richmond, Bolton, and Waterbury before eventually riding over the Winooski River suspension bridge and back into Ridge Runner territory. Everyone had a blast and the total trip distance was 200 miles.

Cool website. I think we must have passed each other on the trail.

Were you the group with the totally buried Yamaha on Saturday? We were laughing about that all the way home on Sunday. That thing was STUCK. Wish I had a camera...

It didn't take too long to get it out.Thanks for stopping. I hope I get the opportunity to ride by you when you bury your sled, have a good laugh and wish for a camera. (and then have the balls to ask "was that you?")
