My friend Matt and I, along with my son, will be riding at Green Lane in PA almost every weekend. It is an awesome place to ride with huge rocks and other things to ride. If you are ever interested PM me. I'll be taking pics this weekend. (Maybe even video)
I'd like to talk to the park rangers to see what the chances of setting up a comp there. If I get permission, would anyone be interested in helping out? I've never done anything like this, so it would be cool to get some help from someone that has experience. Thanks.

Pics will be coming soon.The pics are not the best, but you will at least be able to see some of the terrain.
I sprained my ankle within the first 5 mins of the ride. I didnt want to waste a perfectly good day of riding, ecspecially where I just got my new parts on my bike and wanted to try them out. Matt and I kept riding the rest of the day. My ankle looks like a balloon now.:rolleyes:
My wife is a nurse, so I get no sympathy. heh heh

That's cool. Yeah, just hit us up when ever you want to get together. We are normally up there at 1:00 PM either Sat or Sun. and ride for at least a few hours. Hopefully you'll have a bike by the time summer comes around.

Ok, here they are... granted they are not the best pics in the world, but I thought I'd show you some of the layout of this park. These pics are taken in a small area of the park.
This is the day that I sprained my ankle so I ended up taking it easy and taking some pics.

This rock is actually really huge. I know it doesnt look it in the pic though.

Pretty cool spots to ride right next to the ranger station. So far they have been really cool with us riding there. I think they must be bored cause they will sit there, drink their coffee and watch us ride.

Yeah dude, I'd be up for riding. I was actually just up there again this past Saturday. I'll have to give my friend Matt a heads up so he can come out as well.
Let's plan on 1:00 PM on Sat. for now and if anything changes we can always PM each other.
We normally ride in two areas for the most part, but if you want we can meet over by the ranger station.

LOL, no problem. We are there to have fun and to learn from each other. This sport is so much more enjoyable when there are other people to ride with!
See ya there!

Hey,
Yeah, I will be up there. I haven't called the other guys yet to see if they are coming or not yet. I'll do that at some point today. Have you ever been there or need directions? Check your PM and I'll send you my cell #
