OTNdayz East wrap up

[trauma100]

So.. just wanted to thank everyone who came down (I counted 30 at Rockport ..riders/family) especially those who traveled milezzz to come to the east side to play. I know there wasnt alot of structure as far as a "comp" goes, but not knowing what to expect with the turnout and what everyone wanted to do, It was more of a meet and greet and ride event that in my eyes turned out awesome.
Everyone I met over the last three days was super cool and everyone seemed to get along fantastic. I was kinda sketch on being an e-biker and meeting everyone through a forum and not knowing what to expect as far as personalities goes, but in my eye's it was perfect.
I hope everyone had fun and lost a few pound's in the sweltering heat. looking forward to the next OTNdayz East that should be twice as baller!!

Again... thank's to everyone who came out to ride and shoot still's and video and to Matt for making it all possible.

Thanks for putting on a great ride. I was kind of sketch on being an e-biker and meeting everyone also. I was expecting allot more making fun of me but it turned out mad cool. Thanks to everyone who made it possible and to every one who showed up.

[tubender]

I had a great time also, can't wait to hear the stories from Bruce's house..

[aki]

It was a blast. The best group ride I've experienced in a long time, definitely the biggest. I'm sure next year will be a much bigger event.

It's been such a rough year for me. Between 3 deaths in the family and studying hard for an exam, I really needed this. I've been looking forward to this all year and it was even better than I thought it was going to be.

It was a pleasure meeting those of I hadn't met before and it was great to see old friends again.

Big thanks to Darrel for organizing and to Bruce and Sinister for hosting a great party.

And huge thanks to Matt, without whom none of this would be possible and, I'd probably be riding trials alone everyday.

To those of you that I hosted at my house, it was a pleasure having you and you're welcome anytime.

[kobrakai]

sounds and looks like you guys had a great time. i really wish i could have made it, but maybe next year. cool that some of the Quebec guys made it though.

it was cool!

:bowrofl:

Us trials riders may be nerds, but a hell of a lot of fun to hang out with. Even though I couldn't really ride because of my shoulder, I had an awesome time heckling and drinking with you guys. My only regret is that it'll be such a long time until the next OTN days. :wtc:

The whole weekend exemplified how trials in the US should be. Big thanks to:
Matt for hosting the site (and fixing it in time so that we could coordinate!)
Darrel for organizing it, working out the logistics with the Trustees of Reservations, bringing us to the dece pumpkin ale, and getting us the hookup with the sinister barn
Erik for bringing a dedicated videographer, for the patch kit, and for the Sunset grill
Aki for taking great photographs and for the water the first day
And to the rest of the guys, I'm not going to name you individually like Kevin :greddy: but you guys are dope e-riders and I can't wait to see you again.

PS Joel wheremybarsat?

[trauma100]

Oh crap, the bars are in Aki's car? Along with teh watermellon that didn't get tapped + vodka = more fun.

The hospitality amongst riders is golden, like a bunch of brothers you don't fight with. Next year will be huge er er.

I gotta do some e-tourist homework and stop e-biking. Rest day of people watching today as the ACTUAL riding over three days was rad.

[mekanic305]

Twas an awesome weekend. Very nice to finally meet everyone and huge thanks to Darrel for setting up and Eric for putting me up for a night and everyone for a great time. It's been worth the drive and my week has only begun.

[firewrx612]

What's up with the fact that as soon as most everyone leaves the weather goes back to being pretty close to perfect?

[greyghost]

pics/vids....etc?

[Giant1118]

2 threads with pics that Aki took urban and natty in the media section

[aki]

I'll just crack open the watermelon with the Simtra bar tonight & enjoy some :D

Yes, thank you to Darrel for organizing and Matt's support. And all the cool riders that showed up from all over :)

[Joe Janicki]

I ended up going friday night, like 6-8:30 (When I could no longer see). My g/f and I were alone besides for some fishermen, and I must say, at dusk, that place is stunning. The setting sun and rising moon were spectacular to see, and it was nice and cool for riding. Great time and I'll put some pictures up somewhere on here soon.

P.S. sorry I couldn't meet up with anyone, I had to work on Sat and Sunday. Sounds like you guys had a blast. Later@!

[Elan]

no one thanks the architect :hsugh:

[KeepRollin]

I guess I'll post in this thread too...

Thanks again to everybody who set this nonsense up. I think everybody was nervous about all the chickens but fortunately they behaved themselves. It was cool to meet a lot of you guys. I definitely recognized most of you from the forum and it's good to know you're all big losers like I figured. :momaru: But seriously, this was a great weekend and definitely worth the drive up.

And another thank you to Erik and Jodi for the bed, air conditions, and awesome breakfast.

[Little Android Man]

I agree with what everyone said. The ride was great and the people were awesome too. Thanks to everyone who organized any part of this. The heat sucked, but it was worth it. I look forward to all the video!

[darkside]

I miss you guys already.

Too bad I have to be in the Frankfurt airport right now on my way to Zurich. Stupid Europe, I wanna be in Boston!

wait...

[trauma100]

You can get seated first Kevin .... "Elderly,children or handicap" Next time dont fuck with the drunk kid on the go-ped! Ill miss tending to your wounds like a mother lion.

Thanks for the band-aid mom! But you forgot to kiss my toe to make the pain stop.
