Your roving reporter, MarGinJoey here.... checking in live from QUADFEST, Somerset, PA........


WE have arrived... so far, we're maybe 9 strong.. I think some came overnight... we'll see.

It's a tad early, 7:30. Breakfast @ 8, riding by 10. Nice to come early. It's 72 and bit breezy out there this morning, certainly nice riding weather, but not short sleeve.... thought I packed a light riding jacket, apparently not. Have to fix that.

Otherwise nothing to report....

Off to omelettes! Seeya'z. Pics will be posted tonite most likely, stay tuned!

Good stuff gang, a FEW pics are up.... we got seperated a few times but always managed to find others of us to ride with. I've seen quite a few more than 9 of us now, for sure. Yesterdays 72 (Vins truck later said it was NOT 72 but 56...I believe it) and breezy turned into some of THE best weather so far! Awesome....

Will snap more pics today!



October eh???

I wish I was there too! Sounds like a great time and good riding weather. Im always proud of her riding ablility. She rides better than I do now. Anyone take any photo's of her riding today?
I'll have to see how Im doing in the fall to see if I can ride by then, but it sounds like a possibility.

Unfortunately I'm back in Jersey now Definately made some great memories with this ride,some may haunt me but thats another story.

This weekend had it all thrills,spills,plenty of mud,woodsy trails,some crazy track style trails which kicked ass, smooth as glass dirt roads to pin the throttle on.

We should have brought more back up quads. More breakdowns than expected for sure.

The nights at the lounge were off the hook. I think I hurt more from laughing than riding. We are definately a twisted bunch

Great to meet your friends Mike. Hopefully you will talk them into getting on the forum. They have my vote being zone riders.


I hope the sunday riders have a good time,looking foward to hearing how the day went.


well,time to power wash

Nice complete report.

Pencil me in for next time.

Less the breakdowns and risk of life and limb.


Sorry you didn't get "lucky"!
