Puppy Dog Route

This is the next Planned adventure. This is an off road route from the MASS border to Canada through VT. My friend Dave are planning to do this the weekend of July 11th and will depart on that Thursday for Greenfield MA, ride N to Allis State Park on Friday, Saturday we will contine North arriving in Troy VT at the Canadien border. Sunday will be a liesurely back road ride back to southern NH. This will be a tent camping adventure!

I have picked up a small dome tent and sleeping bag... Today is the "dry run" and Dave and I are heading out shortly for Monadnock state park in NH. We are loaded up as if we are doing the 3 day run and will grab some dirt and gravel on the way out. We will set up camp, spend the night, break camp in the morning and pack up to return home. This will show us how the bikes handle loaded on both on & off road condition. It will also tell us if we are "missing" anything we should have, need to revise our packing for ease of setup, and how easy we can set-up and break camp.

There is some rain possibilities for tonight... so that may be a "test" also.. :)

I will send a couple Jott updates and the tracking mode of SPOT will be on.

I just did the southern section yesterday. Did you do your trip? I would love to see a report.
