TrenchKnife Posted February 22, 2010 Report Share Posted February 22, 2010 There is very little decent riding in southern NY or NJ. I ride Mount Petit only because of great grooming and snow quality despite the fact that its is very small. almost too small. Great pitch on their race hill and no lift lines on weekdays. I may take this week off to just ride there. It is cheap too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But still fun and u got to works your legs. After ECES I will take one weekend off from longer traveling, have 3 VT trips coming up so I do my miles to just ride every weekend. Anyway would be cool to ride there and I hope Eric and Mike will come up to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrenchKnife Posted February 23, 2010 Report Share Posted February 23, 2010 I went back to mount petit yesterday before coming back to the city. great conditions again, I basically had the hill to myself: me, two senior citizen skiers and another washed-up hardboot racer doing nothing but gs turns on the little race hill. the place feels like soda springs or sugar bowl picked up and dropped 2,700 miles to the east.

Have no ride just train but that goes to the town so its not bad. I can do weekends or in the week as well but will have to be back to the city by 4 PM so I can go back to work.

TrenchKnife Posted February 24, 2010 Report Share Posted February 24, 2010 If you get there during the week, you won't be able to miss other hardbooters. it's a tiny, empty little hill. I'm the ravishingly handsome devil in the brown parka on the SG. I'm in the city for the past couple days but hope to be at mount petit there for Thurs. or Friday through the weekend.

TrenchKnife Posted February 24, 2010 Report Share Posted February 24, 2010 Well, we got the day off, so i blazed the cross-country back up to Washingtonville and put a few nice runs in at Mound Petit! Wonderful! I'm staying up here for the storm tonight. Any Mountain Creep riders interested in riding in Warwick tomorrow? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrenchKnife Posted February 27, 2010 Report Share Posted February 27, 2010 Had the sickest experience yesterday: Two local ex-racers too me down a psychotic pipeline trail for a few runs yesterday. Just 3 minutes down the road from Mt. Peter, two cars, hike in from the Appalachian Trail at the top of Mount Peter. Never knew there was anything so steep and rideable so near NYC. I'm at my desk in the city and my legs are still shaking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
