Not where we lived....

There was a large group of us that took turns buying the MLB package so we could watch the Sox. One of our group was a shift supervisor at the Bud plant in B-ville. That...

One thing I noticed for sure in my limited time at JHMR this year. The skiers there were much poorer than when we last visited in 2012. Is it Ikon? Don't know but the difference was noticeable...

I definitely owe you one. I should be able to get the boat to SoVT. If he's going to NoVT, Peruvian may be able to assist.

I know I have these

but not sure if this will work with my...

Yes indeed. This year I am definitely making a week-long Maine swing.

For a while, they abandoned the SS name and called it Woodstock Six or something like that. Can't remember the timeframe but pretty sure they did that.

You know I'm in for the gathering...probably going to arrive midday on Friday.

See you at TTB at Meadowbrook (aka BNH Pavillion)!

While they have shells, lobsters aren't technically shellfish,...

My limited data set on baseball fans in the upstates:
CNY: it's about 1/3 Yankees, 1/3 Mets, 1/3 Red Sox (which I found odd....)
Capital District: 80% Yankees, 15% Mets, 5% Red Sox

FWIW...

^ Agree.

It's an historical name for an historical ski area but it's not a good look.

SW NH is nothing like the NEK in both good ways and bad. Personally, I never wanted to live in NH because most of the people I met (Lakes Region mostly) seemed like escaped Massholes. ...

Or a colledge student



IPAs tend to lose flavor faster. One day in May whilst hiking over to Cascade from the top of Superstar at Killington, Goniff, Vt-Free, Buckethead, and I found a 6-pack...

We used to look down on peeps from Rutland...my relatives are all rednecks also.

Although we didn't try to run it down when we skied together in Jackson and Targhee, there's a good chance...

This was in the Upstate thread as some thought the guy should be an honorary Upstater.

Wow.

Great post dude.

Which Ripstick?

Which Dynafit boots?

Beacon, probe and shovel combo...any details?

Withholding my excitement about the Red Sox until they play the Yankees and Tampa more regularly. They've been beating up on the also-rans (although Cleveland is good) lately. Let's see how they do...

Just here to say that Hoosick Street in Troy sucks sweaty balls.

Thnx! I was looking for the entire 3 weeks for all of Austria and nothing was coming up west of Innsbruck. Will narrow the dates and see if zooming in on the search lands any fish.


Not really...

Yep, upstate as fuck.

He lives in Manchester, VT. Haven't seen him out and about but we're always looking. Did see Alec Baldwin shortly after the Rust incident. He was drinking his troubles away....

That light bar easily costs more than my entire car.

Solid info. Thanks all. Since we don't have to worry about work schedules, I'll look into mid-March as a starting point.

Maybe we try a couple of basecamps...since we can't stay a month like we...

Great info, thanks.

I've probably skied more days at Hintertux (Zillertal) than any other place in Austria and I agree on the "feel".

Any thoughts on the best way to find "semi-slopeside"...

Nexus is just for Canada and Mexico.

If you travel internationally at all, GE is better than Pre-check.

Funny story about Clear...it's been around for a while but the first group went bankrupt....

Nothing on VRBO, HomeToGo, or AirBnB west of Innsbruck in Austria for that timeframe that I could find. Need 2 bedrooms.

There's a Ted's on Hoosick Street (Rte 7) in Troy. Past the top of the hill on the right. A bit out of the way...

Also Dinosaur BBQ in Troy. It's way fancier than the OG biker hangout in...

Isn't that true for everything under the sun?



Oh, I've read the threads...Andermatt is definitely an option.

That totally looks like Peruvian's pooch although she's not a humper.



Lobstah isn't shellfish.

If you like sticky rubber floors. Place always smelled like a Fort Lauderdale college bar in the 80s. It cements Saratoga's place as legit upstate.



Don't know what it's like these days but it...

Why Austria? Because it's cheap and so am I. Plus, I had so many great ski days there in the late 80s/very early 90s. Plus I speak passable German but no French or Italian.

My next door neighbor...

Bump back onto pg. 1.

This has the potential to be better than any of the Ullr-fests at Magic.

Agree. My parents had it on their coffee table and I spent a couple of days engrossed. I think they were hoping my sister would read it because she hikes up there all the time. She did mention the...

Go to the Olde Bryan Inn. Wife and I had mugs in the bar there. Sit outside if t's a nice day. I'm sure Benny would not approve which is all the more reason to go.

Atlantic Seafood in B-ville was great. I actually preferred it over Doug's. Their coleslaw is vinegar based, not mayo. Haven't been since 2009. May have to hit it this weekend.

To shave a little time (and a lot of aggravation) coming from the metro area...

Get off I-87 at I-787 toward Albany
Take I-90 (free 90) east
Take the 2nd exit to DeFreestville/rte 43
Stay on...

Back to page 1.

Will split shipping.

Make a reasonable offer if you think the price is too high.

Doug's

Hands down.

^ Not until I'm 80...

Psyched...my son just scored us tix for Thursday and Friday at next year's PGA Championship in the upstates.

Haven't been there since 2007 so wasn't sure. The one in B-ville closed and I was worried the one in Skinny-atlas did too. Going to be in B-ville this weekend....

Awoke to 46* and steam on the lake this morning. High of 71. Lake water still in the 60s. Not ready to plunge in just yet.

Rue Ste. Catherine when I was a youngster....

I used to live in Saratoga Springs and commuted to Magic every weekend for 5 years. It took us 1+40. It was only 78 miles but the roads were not conducive to fast driving with 2 dogs in the back. ...

Yeah, thnx. That's a whole separate issue. I'm actually trying to sell my current bike to get one that has better geometry for my aging body.

I have a very good friend that was NYPD and lived in Monroe. After retiring from NYPD, he worked for the Fed Govt for about 18 years. At one point, he actually worked for me but we were friends...

^ I am a new cyclist. I did notice on long climbs my right knee would angle inward ("weird pedal stroke") so I'm hopeful the brace will keep my leg in better alignment and get my leg muscles around...

Please clarify...what part do you think takes more time? Maybe it's 40 minutes from Fair Haven but only if you hit every stoplight on Rte 4 in Rutland. There's a better way....

I used to drive...

A very close friend runs a moving expediter service here in Vermont (they do moves nationwide). I've used them twice and have been exceptionally happy both times. Lemme know if anybody wants...

Bump. No action so wondering if the no shipping clause is the issue or if the price is too high? I saw this exact same bike on Pinkbike and the person was asking $2,700 which is ridiculous.

I know lots of guys in the Army that were over 30 years and only O-6 (Colonel in the Army, Captain in the Navy). Making flag rank (general/admiral) is all politics. Some guys didn't want to be...

I thought Dr. Seuss was no longer cool. :cool:

Too many military parachute landings in my youth. My back is likely next.
