Connecticut

RBriggs85 · 07-14-2008, 02:00 PM

Basically I'm sick of skating alone.

I've searched CT for over 2 years now and have all of the spots worth riding.

I don't care how old or young you are.
New to longboarding? Let's get together and I'll teach you anything you wanna learn.
Seasoned rider? Well let's go shred.

It doesn't matter where you live, I have runs everywhere.

This is my final attempt to better organize all the rider's in this state.

hamsterchucker lives in CT, maybe he'll skate with you.

i want to ride too. what happened to Block island? maybe we should have a huge wheelabrator session or something.

i really want to go to that "secret spot"

if traffic isn't too bad with it being open to cars now.

GravityRider15 · 07-14-2008, 02:14 PM

There's only one problem with where you guys live, it's flat as hell.
Harriman is alright but..

...I'm trying to network all the rider's who don't live 2 hours away...

im just looking for some fun hills to do. we found a straight bomb that we hit around 45 from only about 3/4 of the way up, but it wasn't nearly as fun as that hairpin.

hmmmm, maybe with a bit of planning we can arrange something this Friday possibly?

I was planning on going to harriman with basstard, but it sounds like you know of some good spots.

Hey Rob, I was up your way (Southington) for a Family event on Saturday, Nice roads you have...I need to get some time free and go skate I've only been running cones lately

RBriggs85 · 07-14-2008, 02:38 PM

My boy Brian Peck might be able to show you around on friday.

I'm fortunate to have this monday off but normally it's 6:00AM-4:00PM Mon-Fri making money.

XGECKO: Too bad that's very close to me. Next time your coming to the area give me a head's up.

I know Brian a bit, met him at the EW slide comp.

It would most likely be me, basstard, and mjkam11 going up, if we make the trip, should be fun.

btw, if it ends up just being us guys from NYC going up, is it a pain finding any of these spots?
