CT AIRLINE RAILWAY STATE PARK RailTrail

The essential goals of GO in my opinion are to provide gay men with an opportunity to engage in outdoor activities for which they have an interest or a passion AND to meet others who share their desire to meet and make friends.  The CT Airline Ride yesterday fulfilled both of these perfectly.  A beautiful fall day, a very nice group of guys, a leader, Jonathan Clark, doing a fine job of organizing the event and a really good ride.  Cannot say enough about how this represents the best of GO!  Made some new friends, saw some guys whom I know and 22 miles of laughs. 

Please join us for this 24-mile roundtrip ride on the original railbed of the Airline Railroad which was designed to provide the shortest route between NYC and Boston in the 1870s.  We'll ride from Amston (Hebron)/Rte 85 south to East Hampton where we'll have lunch.  Then return to cottage.  Hopefully the fall foliage will be coming into full glory.  Please bring a helmet, water and snacks.  This railtrail has a hard-packed surface but is NOT paved; however, most road bikes should be fine for this ride.
