Congratulations!!!
When's the date? Have you set one yet?
What a fun trail to ride and I have to admit I snickered at the "Honey that doesn't look like the best line".That would be me though, kissing the dirt, lol.

A few surprises at Kingdom Trails, VT
To disable ads, please log-in.
Just returned from four days riding at Kingdom Trails in East Burke, VT. For more info, this thread talks about the town and trails http://forums.teamestrogen.com/showthread.php?t=18652
And now for the pics!
Two very muddy Konas
Riding Poundcake, a delicious assortment of rocks, roots, twists and turns
My guy with Burke Mountain in the background. I can still smell the Pines.
A pair of tired Konas near the trailhead
Mmm...berms...
And mud...lots of it!
Not surprisingly, the trail named Jaw drops into a streambed
"Honey, that doesn't look like the best line..."
What's that about women always being right?
View from the balcony at our B&B
And, last, but not least. The biking was good, but this little surprise was even better!

Thanks, everyone! We haven't set a date yet. Just going to enjoy this for a while. But KT looks like a pretty enticing place to have a wedding!

I think we'd go crazy if it didn't! Either some mountain/road biking in Hawaii or road riding in Tuscany or France sound perfect. We won't do a bike themed wedding, but the honeymoon would have to be more bike oriented for sure.

Best wishes to you!
I liked the photo essay and especially the ending. DH and I just rode up at KT ourselves few weeks ago. I could have done with way less mud, but it was still fun.
