On Saturday Sept 19th I had the pleasure of hosting the scheduled Nubble Light ride after AAD Kevin Martin got a last minute flat tire a couple of days before the ride. Using the download of the GPS route I was able to conduct the ride. Kevin was able to mount his new tires and meet us up in NH at one of the scheduled stops. It was a beautiful day for riding weatherwise. The scenery and company were most excellent. I want to thank Bob Watkins, Tom Edwards and Kevin Martin for providing radio communications throughout the ride. We encountered some interesting obstacles along the way and the communication was able to get us through it without too many hastles. Thank you to all the 14 attendees who made the ride; always memorable. :) Hope to see you again on the Mount Greylock ride in October.

I had a great time on my first group ride ever - thanks to everyone for the warm welcome.
 
Brian, Thanks for posting some pictures. It was nice to meet you and your girlfriend on your first COG ride. Looking forward to seeing you on upcoming rides and events. More opportunities to learn about the bike and the friendly people who ride them!

Hi Greg- I'm looking to put communication on my C14.. what does everyone seem to use? I was thinking one of the FRS Radios and a Starcom.. Sounds like a great ride BTW
 
Ed, I run an Autocom but I do hear good things about the StarCom. On the ride we were running FRS/GMRS radios; channel 7, scramble digit 0. With a large group of riders we do tend to push the limits of the radios especially when we have bike separation of 1 mile or so between the front and rear. Key is a good set of batteries, good position of the radio, and an uncluttered channel. The communication is very helpful for the lead, trail, etc. It can get to be too much if too many people are talking (eg if everyone on the ride had a radio and were talking).
